WHAT INGREDIENT... DO YOU NEED TO CURE A BROKEN HEART ? THIS SOUL-NOU-NOURISHING COMFORT READ IS FOR ANYONE WHO HAS LOVED AND LOST- AND WANTS TO LOVE AGAIN. Twenty-nine year old Momoko has been tragically dumped. So she does what many brokenhearted people do - she gets incredibly drunk. Stumbling into a nearly empty café, whose sole other patrons are a monk-in-training and the manager, she spills her heart out to them.
Mid-story, she's encouraged to slip into the kitchen and cook up her ex's favorite recipe. That's when she realizes something incredible : the combination of cooking and sharing has stopped her tears. So the manager gets an idea : What if they created an unconventional therapy group, the "Ex-Boyfriend's Favorite Recipe Funeral Committee", encouraging others to do what Momoko did to get over heartbreak ? This charming novel (with recipes throughout ! ) brings together fellow lonely hearts in this small suburb of Tokyo.
