Recipe for Romance

Anna, a Chicago chef, returns to her small Vermont hometown to save the family restaurant from bankruptcy. Her plans collapse when she discovers the building has already been purchased by Jack—an ambitious restaurateur dreaming of opening a trendy gastropub. Instead of legal battles, they make a strange bet: whoever cooks the best dish at the town festival gets the property. In the kitchen, more than just stoves ignite, especially when it turns out their grandmothers' culinary secrets are intertwined. Anna and Jack begin secretly exchanging recipes, unaware that their families were once partners who fell out over a legendary sauce. A film about how old grudges dissolve in the aroma of freshly baked bread, and love finds its way through a shared passion for food.
