'Touching, funny, and beautiful, Kawashiro has a wonderful gift for bringing the reader into the story' Booklist
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 cafe. When she wakes, she pours her heart out to Iori, the curious and impossibly handsome manager and Hozumi, a Buddhist monk in training and cafe regular.
As Momoko describes how her ex loved her cooking, the manager decides to allow her to slip into the kitchen and cook up his favourite dish: a delicious butter chicken curry. Momoko realizes that this combination of cooking and sharing has stopped the flow of her constant tears. And the manager has a brilliant idea: what if they started doing this regularly, inviting customers to share stories about heartbreak while cooking dishes that held significance in their relationships?
And so, an unconventional therapy group, the 'Ex-Boyfriend's Favourite Recipe Funeral Committee' is born . . .
