The Recipe of Lasting Love (2025)

journey of memories, food edition

The synopsis is misleading, not in terms of events but in terms of pacing. The two-episode story isn't anywhere near as rushed thankfully. It's a wee road trip around central Thailand, focusing on the themes of memory, aging, love and food - and the ability of food to evoke memories and connection. With lots of cooking, local specialties, two temples, a cheeky elderly uncle who's always joking, a serious young man, two notable older actresses and another who I'm guessing is a noted Thai singer (will have to go back to get her name).

If you get on with the Thai PBS way with a short story, these two episode series are a lovely way to spend some time and get to know something about another part of Thailand and its many cultures.
