Pasta Ep. 1 & 2

Oh My. So, typical introduction of the characters and the introduction of the love story, of course. There are many twists within the first episode, which is always interesting to watch. The main character chef girl is, as usual, in this type of comedic drama, the lonely, "sorta" dumb/slow, girl who wants to make something of her life, so sentimental, right?! The two other main male characters (so far), which I assume are the new Head Chef and the "Number Two" Sous Chef, are as usual, the most "Non-Asian" looking of all the characters. It is interesting to see where the Head Chef and the main Chef girl will do with their "relationship"...

I think clothing is a large part of this drama, like most dramas. Typical asian...where there is a lot of fashion in what the characters are wearing...the main Chef girl is frumpy, to accentuate...well, her "frumpyness". The Head Chef wears his trendy trench coat. (I want that HUGE scarf that he's wearing!)

Along with the love story plot, there is also some other branches to the drama, something about the egg supplier and the huge amount fo cash? The idea of having no women in the kitchen...Also, the side couple, the lady who is the TV personality and that one man who keeps bothering the Chef girl, and ALSO! the cactus flower polaroids?

These dramas are starting to make me think about the way the new American TV dramas are being plotted out, like Desperate Housewives, Grey's Anatomy, where there are a lot of characters, that all interconnect through a simple, yet complicated story line...
