Cooking movie
It's quick, it's easy and it's just mediocre.
To help set expectations, this is a straightforward hallmark romance. Taylor has a success show on the cooking channel. So successful that the network wants to take her show nationwide. The problem....while the recipes are "quick, easy and tasty", they aren't Taylor's and she is tired of doing other people's recipes. She takes a break and heads home to the coastal town of Dunedin, where she meets an old flame, old friends and old rivals. She also discovers that her dad wants to retire and sell their family's restaurant.
She enters her and her dad into a local cooking contest hoping for them both to get inspired, igniting that old cooking passion...meanwhile she has to decide if she should except the network's new very generous offer with a little pressure from her friend and agent.
I loved seeing Martin Kove, who played her father Glen. It was a fine enough script, but just a middle of the road romance that left me lukewarm on recommending to my fellow romantics.
