The synopsis of this series is really the main reason why I started it. Cute and simple. When I was introduced to Ram and Lukchup, I actually found thier interactions a bit cute and awkward. Yet, as more and more episodes came out, other aspects of this series annoyed me to no end.

Story-4.5/10
I'm just gonna list out what I like and what I didn't.

What I liked:
☆ Ram and Lukchup's relationship and how it blossomed (to a degree)
☆ Thier families easy acceptance of thier relationship
☆Their friends
☆ The food that was made by Lukchup and his friends
☆ Lukchup's kindness. This character is a better person than me, after all that he went through.

What I didn't like (this is going to be long):
☆ The overplay of the evil 'girlfriend' (they never even dated, mind you). And okay, we know why Namning ended up the way that she did. But still, her character was a just too much
☆ Thirteen episodes of a series that I know could have been told in less episodes
☆ Praying for Paitong and Sky to end up together throughout the WHOLE series, only to actually see them together in the LAST episode! (And that kiss?! Yowzer!)
☆ Time jumps. I don't like time jumps. And it's not just one, but TWO! (One for a month later and one five years later)
☆ I really wasn't invested in Super and his girlfriend as the series really didn't focus on it. They just mentioned it in passing and I was like...meh when it happened.
☆ Bullying. It ain't cool. And the way it escalated. From bullying Lukchup in school. To bullying him online. And then to hiring people to beat him up?!! Like, seriously?!!
☆ Lukchup's kindness. While I liked it, I hated it sooo much! But as I stated earlier, Lukchup's character is a better person than me.

As such, I am graciously giving this storyline a 4.5 out of the kindness of my heart.

Acting/Cast-5.5/10
While I do like the cute and awkwardness of Lukchup and Ram's relationship as well as thier interactions with friends and families, some of these actors acting has been over the top (looking at you, Namning). And because of this, it can really spoil the series. Which it did. So, I'm gonna give a 5.5.

Music-8/10
Without a doubt, truly the only best thing throughout the whole series. I loved hearing it everytime I started this series and this is actually the only thing that I am going to miss about La Cuisine. So, I am giving an 8.

Rewatch Valu-2/10
It was okay the one and only time that I did watch it. I see no need to watch it again. Just saying.

Overall-5/10
Overall, I give this series a 5. I am glad that I gave it a shot and watched it. I am also glad that it is done.
