Love's Kitchen (2011) Synopsis

This is no popcorn movie but Michelin star film cuisine. The story is about a chef, Rob Hayley (Dougray Scott) who lost his creative touch when he lost his beloved wife in a car crash. He 'retires' with his young daughter to the countryside where he meets a comely critic Kate Templeton (Claire Forlani)who challenges his life expertise. He takes interest once again in creating dishes which are unique and scrumptious to impress her, and succeeds with great flair. Soon his local pub restaurant is attracting customers from far and wide. However, nasty rival lover and cranky locals then gang up against him, threatening him with closure of his business. His only hope is to win praise on national TV from a visiting critic (Simon Callow). A taste of English country fare, but not the usual Ploughman's lunch of cheese with pickles. Instead, we are served fresh lemon sole and salmon mousse followed by that quintessentially English dessert, fruit trifle. The trifle is made with the finest sherry and topped with irresistible cream laced with Cognac. The sweet film wins all hearts and is served with a dry sense of humor and much love. Everyone including the actors enjoys this culinary treat. Best tasted with quail's eggs and a bottle of chilled Chardonnay. Bon appetite.—Christine (Starfilms)
