What ingredients do you need to cure a broken heart? This soul-nourishing comfort read is for anyone who has loved and lost – and wants to love again.
For fans of Butter, Days at the Morisaki Bookshop, What You Are Looking For Is In The Library, I Want To Die But I Want To Eat Tteokbokki and Before The Coffee Gets Cold.
Momoko thought her boyfriend was her soulmate. She believed he was going to propose. Instead, he broke things off at a love hotel.
So she does what many broken-hearted people do – she gets incredibly drunk. So drunk that she passes out in a nearly empty café and wakes up pouring her heart out to the curious and handsome café manager, Iori, a Buddhist monk in training and a café regular.
As Momoko describes how her ex loved her cooking, Iori lets her slip into the kitchen and cook up his favourite dish: a delicious butter chicken curry. Through cooking and sharing, Momoko suddenly notices her tears have stopped, and that maybe, she’s ready to move on. That’s when an idea starts to take shape: what if they invited customers to share their heartbreak stories while cooking dishes that once meant something in their relationships?
And so an unconventional therapy group, the ‘Ex-Boyfriend’s Favourite Recipe Funeral Committee’, is born . . .
