It's not only a movie about cuisine, earlier times, cooking and eating. It's a decent pearl of acting and story-telling. The relationships between the characters are the power of this pearl.
I shortly can say that I loved every aspect of this movie!
The story, the setting, the acting, the character drawing and developement, the directing, the production design, the ..., the ..., the ... . It's one of the rare movies that transport an interesting story easily. It's no effort to watch it. It's 1h54, but feels shorter to watch. Every minute is interesting in itself! There was no flaw in it - in my humble opinion. One of the perfect entertaining movies in a higher way. I love it, even though I know there won't be the delightment for everyone. No action, no CGI, no modern words.
I would recommend it to movie-lovers who like the times when there were no modern techniques around and story-driven movies which live by decent acting, good story-writing, near to perfect production designs and fitting atmospheres of movies according to earlier centuries.
