The Restaurant of Love Regained by Ito Ogawa

1.0

Disappointed with this. The story suggested by the blurb was not the story told in the novel, which turned out to be more of a list of ingredients and how they were prepared than an actual story.
Things happen, but they seem to be glossed over with such speed that there is nothing there that lets you engage with any of the characters. And I don't believe I've ever seen so many exclamation marks in one book before...
