What do we have on the menu here ? A good scoop of the notorious rivalry between chefs, a large helping of romance, add a cool young kid for good measure, and mix it all up. Though it might not be the most stunningly original story to hit the big screen, it should definately make it onto your main order. This an excellent feel good, mostly fluffy, film about breaking down barriers. Young 11 year old Abigail Breslin is brilliant as Zoe, and the whole thing just works for me.
So can you after all share a kitchen, and share a life, watch it and find out. A definate recommended watch. -

superb...............................
this film is superb. A master chef called Kate (played by Catherine Zeta-Jones) lives her life like she runs the kitchen, with a no-nonsense intensity that both captivates and intimidates everyone around her.
With breathtaking precision, she powers through each hectic shift, coordinating hundreds of meals, preparing delicate sauces, seasoning and simmering each dish to absolute perfection.
However Kate is at her happiest behind the scenes, she only leaves her kitchen to accept compliments for one of her signature dishes, or, on rare occasions, to tangle with a customer who dares question her expertise.
Kate's perfectionist nature is put to the test when a brash new sous-chef joins her staff, the high-spirited and freewheeling Nick (played by Aaron Eckhart). A rising culinary star himself, Nick favours opera while working and loves to make everyone around him laugh.
Kate find's Nick difficult to deal with, and is also struggling to connect with her nine-year-old niece, Zoe (played by Abigail Breslin), who has recenty, and very unexpectedly come to live with her.
Zoe is clearly out of place in Kate's routine, but Kate is determined to make a home for her... just as soon as she figures out how too.
As time goes on, Kate is not sure what irritates her more. Whether it is Nick's talent, that is impressing Paula, the owner of the restaurant and the clientele, or that his easygoing charm, quickly wins over the shy Zoe, who finds it easier to open up to him than to her aunt.
What will Kate do?.....Watch this fantastic film to find our!!!!!!! -
