Love and Honor tells the story about a samurai food taster and his wife. Both, "A Tale of Samurai Cooking" and "Love and Honor" show that love can form and persist in turbulent times. Both illustrate that a true love story does not always have to follow a Cinderella storyline and can still be beautiful.
