It’s rare to find a crime drama that also leaves you with mouth-watering envy, but Recipes for Love and Murder is exactly that show.

TV Insider

Even the contrast between the bright colors of South Africa and the much more muted tones of Scotland tells a compelling story of its own, mixing the obvious glamor of Africa with the film noir backdrops of Scotland to create a unique and compelling palette as this fun show unfolds.
