No Reservations

No Reservations is a 2007 romantic comedy directed by Scott Hicks, from a screenplay by Carol Fuchs based on an original script by Sandra Nettelbeck. A remake of the German film Mostly Martha (Ger. title Bella Martha, directed by Nettelbeck), the American version stars Catherine Zeta-Jones and Aaron Eckhart as a pair of chefs, and Abigail Breslin. An episode of Food Network's Unwrapped, which first aired on July 26, 2007, went behind-the-scenes of this movie.

No Reservations was released in North America by Warner Brothers on July 27, 2007.

Kate Armstrong (Zeta-Jones) is a master chef who lives her life as busily outside of the kitchen as she does inside. She inherits a niece, Zoe (Breslin), who tests her patience while the chef deals with a new sous-chef Nick Palmer (Eckhart) in the kitchen. Despite the differences between Kate and Nick, they find chemistry with each other. Kate is compelled to change her approach to life differently from the way she approaches work so she can develop stronger relationships with Zoe and Nick.
