Far more sugary than the gastomic delicacies at the centre of this very light romance. An Indian immigrant family set-up a resturant opposite Madame Mallory's classical French establishment. After a bit of huffing and puffing the respective proprietors and chefs make peace, love and two-star Michelin food. Nice to see an Americam film portray Asians positively, though this is no "Bend it Like Beckham".
