The Hallmark movie Always Amore:
What is it about?
According to a synopsis from Hallmark, Autumn Reeser plays Elizabeth, a widow working hard to keep her late husband Marco’s Italian restaurant in business. She’s holding on to the recipes and styles established by Marco to honor his memory, but business continues to go downhill. At the urging of her mother-in-law (played by Patty McCormack), Elizabeth hires Ben (Tyler Hynes), a “restaurant fixer” who has many new ideas to save money, enhance the décor, and change the menu.
Elizabeth is initially reluctant to change anything and instead focuses on showing Ben what makes the restaurant, Il Cibo È Vita, so special. The two begin to work together, and they seize the opportunity to enter their head chef into a cooking competition to revitalize interest in the restaurant. In the process, Elizabeth rediscovers her love of baking and even opens her heart to the possibility of love.
