This was okay, I liked the main character and the love interest but a lot of the ensemble cast weren’t my thing. There was too much political talk for what I thought was a lighthearted chef romance. My favourite part was the Jewish representation.

Sadie on a Plate is an interesting novel. Sadie - after a story recounted about three quarters through the book in detail - loses her job at a Seattle restaurant. Shortly thereafter, she's invited to take part in a televised chef competition. On the plane to New York, she meets handsome Luke, and they really hit it off. And the next morning she learns that he's a last minute fill-in judge for the show. Oops.
If you like cooking competition shows, give this book a read.
