My Little Chef (2002)

Seri, an unknown yet talented female chef from the country, arrives in Tokyo to work at French restaurant, Etoire, but discovers that they have gone out of business due to the departure of their main chef. Together with the restaurant's former manager, she opens a French restaurant of her own and begins to recreate the flavors her late father mastered as a famous gourmet chef. Unfortunately, Etoire returns with an unscrupulous manager, and to make matters worse, Seri learns that it happens to be owned by her birth mother living in Paris who she hasn't seen since she was a child. Seri wonders if her passion and skill will be enough to succeed.
A Show that i just watched. wish i could cook like her. for the people i love. And making them forget abt their problems as they eat the food prepared specially for them.
It just makes myself wonder at times. Is the things I am doing now out of passion or for the sake of survival? Am i happy in Doing the things i am doing Now? Where are the dreams that I used to dream of day and night. What is the use of dreaming when they cannot be fulfilled in my lifetime? If time goes back to the past, will i make the same choice as the ones I have made today?
An excitement for the future, but at the same time feeling worried.
