Film Description

A delicious love story with exquisite comedy adapted from Laura Esquivel's best selling novel. Young Tita is forced to nurse her sick mother and, until she dies, cannot marry the man she loves - who is now beginning to notice her sister! Consigned to the kitchen, she discovers the power of cooking. A delightful and bewitching movie, echoing Tampopo in its sensual equation of love and food, but with a sultry mood entirely of its own.
