    Storyline

    Edit
    In morte veritas. Georgia Byrd clerks at a New Orleans department store. She defers pleasure: cooks gourmet meals, eats Lean Cuisine; likes a co-worker in silence; has savings, but hasn't left Louisiana. All that changes when a CT Scan discloses she has three weeks to live. She cashes her savings and heads to Grandhotel Pupp in the Czech Republic, where Chef Didier presides. She checks into the Presidential Suite, orders everything on the menu, snowboards, and comes to the attention of the chef and the hotel's powerful American guests: a Congressman, a Senator, a retail magnate, and his mistress. She has nothing to lose, so she tells them what she thinks. Will the truth set them free? —<jhailey@hotmail.com>

    • Trivia
      Food Network posted the recipes for all of the dishes on their website. Specific dishes prepared for the movie include:
      • Lobster Salad in Potato Leek Nests
      • Duck Hash on Toasted Baguette
      • Spiced Lamb Shanks with Blood Orange Relish
      • Roasted Quail with Brioche and Chorizo Stuffing
      • Risotto Barolo with Roasted Vegetables
      • Bananas Foster
      • Poulet Tchoupitoulas.
    • Goofs
      When at the roulette table, one of the characters tells Georgia that her single bet on black 17 is very large. After winning 3 times in a row on that number, rebankrolling her winnings each time she walks away from the table and the other character tells her she has won almost 100,000 us dollars. Since roulette pays 36 to 1 on a single spot, that means her initial bet was only approximately 2 dollars! Since she has approximately 4 stacks of red chips ($5) I would estimate her to have put about $400 down initially, which would have netted her about 18.6 million!

    8/10
    Very good romantic comedy, funny from beginning to end.
    I went to see this movie because i had already seen all the other movies playing in the theater and i was actually very surprised with how good this movie was! i really enjoyed it, i enjoyed the script, the story, the acting, the characters and although it was semi predictable as is any romantic comedy, it definitely kept me on my toes, i really enjoyed it. Queen Latifah definitely knows how to pick a good script. I gave the movie an 8 out of 10 because although it's not particularly my type of movie, i really did enjoy it.

    I recommend taking the whole family to see this one, or a date, it would even be a fun movie to take your mom to go see!

    One thing i suggest, don't go into this movie hungry because there is a lot of delicious looking food in it. My mouth was watering the entire time.
