What's more scrumptious: the food or the young men?
This was an exceptionally well-made series with meticulous attention to detail that went from the depth of all the main characters to the making of the mouth-watering food that was shot with such precision, often in slow motion which amounted to food porn. It was a joy to see how the story of Aek, his love of food and one day wanting to be a world-class chef melded so perfectly after he met Aue, the owner of a high-class restaurant called Im-Aue which he came across as a delivery boy and the instant attraction they had for each other. Parallel to this is the story of one of Aek's three university buddies, Vich, with whom he shares a dorm room, a charming and playful young man who is a talented photographer and through Aek gets a job at Im-Aue photographing their food after completing an assignment on the creation of the desserts by their dessert chef Prem who he eventually falls in love with and which is immediately reciprocated, unlike the more troublesome love affair between Aek and Aue which takes most of the series to resolve.
One of Aek's buddies is Bie, a handsome and rich young man who doesn't take his studies seriously. He is played by Gameplay who starred in the foodie BL mini-series Ingredients and graduated from Le Cordon Bleu culinary school. He is the only well-known actor in the series and the only main character with real cooking credentials though you wouldn't know it from the skills shown by everyone else. Im-Aue was actually built from scratch and demolished after filming finished. Everyone who took part in this series did so because they believed in the story and had the same vision for its outcome. The result is nothing less than superb and it's hard to decide whether the food or the two main actors, both very dishy and desirable young men in their own way, shone brighter.
