A review by lizzina
Il ristorante dell'amore ritrovato by Ito Ogawa

3.0

This book is not bad but I guess it would have been better without so many "casual" elements put into the book to make it more interesting. The idea Ringo has about a restaurant hosting only a couple per time and with food thought on the details of the couple is nice, except the things happening after the dinner/lunch are somehow too unrealistic into a book which claims to explore inside the characters. Even the story about Ringo's mother seemed to me too much unrealistic to give to the book that bit of magic that I guess the author was thinking to put in.
