I don't usually write reviews for every drama... if I do it's either because it was just too good to not write something or because it left me feeling unsettled and wanting more. This drama would be in the second category!! I actually did love most of this drama. The chemistry of the cast was amazing, the story line was realistic and thought out, the friendships were genuine, the food was amazing, and just everything came together so well to tell an amazing story.
It was the last 1/3 of the drama that started to get long and frustrating. I know every FL has her flaws but in this 20 episode journey, there should have been some character growth for these ladies. Xia Meng 's lying was too much and she was sorry but not sorry. It's a bummer when you stop rooting for the FL and actually think the guy deserves better. I don't think she learned anything from her lies...she was sad because she got caught and he broke up with her, but placed in a similar situation, I think she would do the same thing.
Liu Jing who is super undecisive is STILL that undecisive at the very end... which made me go ....What?!? There should be some personal growth in that area especially if you're dating a man with a little girl (who by the way is an amazing little actress). The scenes with her parents made me cringe and fast forward (oh the hysteria and crying) although I know that's cultural and I just don't quite understand the control parents have over their kids.
Fang Xin was probably the only one that had some character growth by re-entering the work force and growing into a stronger, independent woman. I actually wish there were more scenes with her and her ML since that relationship was the most sincere and genuine one. I would watch a whole drama with those two as the leads! They didn't get as much time together compared to the other couples, which made Fang Xin's reveal at the end even more confusing since drama didn't show them progressing that quickly. For me it didn't quite fit in her story line even with the whole bread vs love analogy.
In the end, I liked this drama but was sad when it ended because it felt like there should have been more... more personal growth, more depth to their characters, and more time for Fan Xin and her handsome baker!!
