This little German movie is a delight about food and about relationships. Here we have a woman, a chef, a good one at that who must cope with a young girl who she brings into her life when the girl's mother dies. There are great shots of the atmosphere and life behind the operations of a restaurant and there are great scenes about the importance of food, but also the importance of being human in other respects. This is an uplifting, sometimes funny, sometimes sad movie in German with subtitles that anybody who eats out or cooks or has children or has an obsession of one kind or another can truly appreciate and learn a great deal from watching this movie. Three and a half stars out of four.
