Warning: Spoilers
Simply Irresistible is a 1999 romantic fantasy comedy starring Sarah Michelle Gellar and Sean Patrick Flannery and tells the story of a shy woman named Amanda who dreams of becoming a chef,since her deceased mother was a gifted chef. One day a mysterious man comes to her local market and gives her a magical crab. The crab happens to help Amanda with her meals at her restaurant,as well as helping her to meet a handsome guy named Tom (Flanery)who runs a department store in New York. However Tom gets faturated with Amanda as she gives him samples of her food that the crab helped her cook. So will the 2 leads get together in the end? Bottom line the plot is very silly as we have a magic crab that helps Amanda to create these perfect meals,making her meet Mr Right who is infatuated with her. The 2 leads are decent and this film is very hard to find anywhere although I now own it. I suppose what drew me to this was no 1 I'm a fan of romantic comedies,no 2 I like Sarah Michelle Gellar since Buffy and no 3 I'm just a sucker for food.

Not a bad romantic comedy which is now 20 years old. If you love food and your a fan of Sarah Michelle Gellar than check it out.
