10/10 Recipe for Chaos, Chemistry, and Culinary Love
Directed by Nui Suttasit Dechinthanarak, this 2024 Thai food romance series serves up eight deliciously chaotic episodes (46 minutes each) that blend sass, spice, and softhearted sweetness in perfect balance. At the center of this dish are Pon Thanapon as Plawan, a pad kaprao purist with a no-long-beans philosophy, and Sailub as Chef Oab, a perfectionist whose cold demeanor hides more than a few tender surprises. When Plawan takes a secret mission to seduce the intimidating chef and steal his spot at the top kitchen table... well, let's just say things start to simmer
The plot? ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS. It's that classic hate-to-love flavor that never goes out of style - full of clashing egos, accidental tenderness, and "oh no, I caught feelings" moments. What begins as a revenge plan ends with Plawan and Oab falling into something real (and dangerously heart-fluttering). And let's not forget Benz as Methas and Garfield as JJ - the side couple who stole the entire kitchen! Their chemistry is pure serotonin; from reluctant partners to
"we're getting married" levels of adorable. Like... how dare they be that cute?!
The series looks as good as it feels - vibrant visuals, cozy restaurant lighting, and that mouthwatering food cinematography that'll make you crave Thai basil at midnight. F» The acting? Insanely natural. Watching Sailub and Pon together feels like witnessing two seasoned actors who've been married for three years already - the chemistry is just that believable. Add a well-paced storyline and perfectly timed humor, and you've got a dish that's equal parts emotional and entertaining.
By the end, you'll be grinning ear to ear as both main and side couples find happiness - no cliffhangers, no drama leftovers, just pure satisfaction. "This Love Doesn't Have Long Beans" is a delightful comfort watch for fans of romcoms with flavor, soft chaos, and genuine emotional payoffs.
A feast for both heart and stomach!
