Where the Heart SimmeredUpdated at Jul 3, 2025, 02:35
Zayden Axl Fernandez, a professional chef who owns a chain of restaurants, burnt out by city life, retreats to the countryside to have peace and unwind, and also to search for silence and forgotten flavors. But when he arrived at the apartment, it was already occupied, and he didn’t expect that her roommate was a woman — Luna Velasco, a children’s book illustrator who can’t cook without setting off the fire alarm.
Kahit gustuhin man nilang hindi magsama sa iisang bubong, kailangan dahil wala ng ibang apartment na marentahan dahil na rin sa may ganap na local festival ang probinsiya at puno na ang mga ibang paupahan. Sa loob ng isang buwan na pananatili nila sa isang apartment, walang araw na hindi sila nagtatalo, lalo na sa kusina.
Pero habang magkasama sila sa kusina at nagtatalo, hindi nila namalayan na nagkaroon sila ng pagtingin sa isa’t-isa. They created a connection as warm and nourishing as comfort food, and as unpredictable as a new story waiting to be illustrated in life.
In the house where, with every shared meal, Zayden and Luna find comfort with each other. A romance that simmers sweet and slow, like the best kind of love, despite the pain, cries, and unhappy moments that happened. They have discovered that love — like the best recipes — takes time, patience, and a little bit of mess.
