    Two hundred feet journey?
    Or maybe it's just a 69 foot journey? If you've seen the movie, you'll understand what I mean. Though I wouldn't compare it to the Lasse H. movie (or book it is based on), this does have a cook who seems not to get the credit he is due. The journey he takes and the reason he has to get money are totally different from that other story too.

    The drama and the story seem a bit off and the multi-language deal it has going on (switching between them, sometimes having subtitles, because German spoken by swiss people is different sounding), might put people off. If not than you're in for a weird drama, about food "spicing" that goes all the way (and beyond). It tries hard to avoid clichés (which works most of the time) and has a nice flow to it. But to make this really delicious, one (secret) ingredient is missing ...
