Its been far too long since a GOOD cooking drama comes in, but with the ladies
I agree. Its refreshing to see cooking theme series. Its been wayyy too long since they make one, a really good one here. For once, I enjoyed every episodes, though I found myself needing to catch a breather in between. Romance wise, a bit of a slow cook (uh huh, no pun intended lol) but it pays of well.What stands out the most for me is the display, the presentation of every single dish is WOW. They took the time to explain about each of them, giving you an understanding on its origin, what they did differently. Oh yes, the way they feature the chef, ML cook is soooo tempting. Spot on! for the effect. You can see the team is really giving their 101% for it.
And
Its a pretty heartwarming theme aside from its comedy. It has a meaning to the reason why the ML took the role as a chef, which as you watch you will find out.
Most of the loopholes here, I hope they will show us when season 2 comes out.
What suprised me?? I mean...the finale seems a bit like, a somewhat borrowed idea from Stephen Chow. So, I unintentionally started to expect things to unfold as it is. Some lines in there too were rushed, so you only get 3/4 of the effect. If they slow it down, and add more time to let it sink, you will get people to tears....it would have been so much more better. Oh well, since we have a season 2 coming...I can close an eye for the scene. The whole finale, 2nd part felt rushed.
If not, this would have been a 9.5/10. I decided to give this an 8/10.

Barely acceptable.
Chang Long es un buen actor y un buen comediante, pero no siempre consigue los mejores papeles. "Yummy Yummy Yummy" es un claro ejemplo: completamente olvidable.Esta serie es apenas aceptable, con un final abierto que deja la puerta abierta a una segunda temporada.
En esta producción le falta una buena contraparte como en Hilarant Family 1

Chef Son-in-Law's Harem
For those that enjoyed Miss Mystery, the FL returns in a modern drama alongside Chang Long. Fans of Chang Long may be delighted that he's finally getting ML role after quickly establishing himself as a popular supporting actor. In fact, he seems to have scored a 3 for 1 deal. In addition, this also checks off the box for ML role for a mini-drama, as well as starring in a BMW commercial.Yes, there is an abundance of BMW product placement in this show as our ML Chang Long breezes through the plot in this pseudo-haremish male fantasy joyride 爽剧. And while the Chinese title has specific connotations of a man marrying into a rich woman's family, I felt more embarrassment for BMW marrying into a mini-drama production. If anyone's wondering whether Chinese EVs are really leaving foreign luxury automakers in an utter bloodbath, you don't have to look further for evidence of BMW's shrinking marketing budget.
While this clearly screams low budget and throws in a laundry list of tropes, don't let my low score dissuade you from giving it a try, it might be enough of a straightforward joyride to make for a casual, fast watch. If you enjoy micro/mini-dramas every so often, this may just hit the spot.

Some awful and forced acting
Things I disliked1 Everything actually. Every single character was irritating. I didn't see any of them as someone I would root for.
2 The FL. Wooden and unnatural acting from the FL. No chemistry at all with the ML. I didn't find the romance convincing at all and it was irritating to say the least. If you can't fid two actors with chemistry and talent or you don't know how to direct romance then don't promise romance.
3 The ML. No charisma whatsoever. It seems he's popular, but I don't know why. It's the first time I see him on anything and I find he tries too hard. He's not handsome enough or talented enough to pull it off, so to me this was a disaster.
4 The whole mystery that ended on a cliffhanger. Stupid and nonsensical. Like anyone cares.

Por vezes, com demasiados condimentos...
STORY - vingança, redenção e superação. Positiva, com um herói benevolente e fiel. The underdog até ao topo, mas com alguns atalhos desnecessários e algumas situações redundantes...CAST - boas representações, de praticamente todos os intervenientes.
MUSIC - não prestei muita atenção, mas pareceram agradáveis.
REWATCH - não me parece que vá rever. Não tem nenhuma situação tão fantástica que mereça ser revisitada. Vale pelo todo, mesmo que poderia ter um quarto a menos...
OVERALL - gostei, bom entretenimento, fiquei com desejos gastronómicos muitas vezes. Realmente, quer no sabor, quer nas texturas, a cozinha chinesa é fantástica!
