A woman is losing her mojo as a sous chef in the city and decides for a change of pace, so she moves to a smaller town to be with her step sister. She meets a handsome diner owner and his daughter, they get to know each other. She starts a restaurant, they become very competitive, the rest of the film is about them competing about everything, and I mean everything. They are bitter rivals at times, and they lend a hand for one another at other times. It's a love-hate ordeal. As time goes on, she helps him to be more humble, kinder, and better. He helps her find her spark. They eventually fall in love but it's at the very very very end. There is really no romance in this film, maybe some buildup. This is about food, but they don't focus enough on the food in particular, it's an overarching theme, so it's more about becoming better people. I enjoyed it, but there is nothing that really stands out for me.
