Meet the Cast
Hallmark’s synopsis for the movie reads:
Anna (Hemmens) is perfectly content being the on-camera prep cook for Dean (Darren Day, “Celebrity Big Brother”), an international celebrity chef. However, one day Dean unexpectedly walks away from his popular food show, leaving Anna to step into the role of host and chef, fighting a serious case of imposter syndrome along the way. Anna steps up to the plate in a big way and starts to make the show her own, traveling to markets, harbors, and cheese cellars to profile and cook the cuisine of Portugal. Much to her surprised, Anna finds she enjoys the limelight – as well as the attention of both her Aussie cameraman, Russ (Mitchell), and Portuguese location scout, Lucas, (Duarte Gomes, “Por Ti”). When Dean unexpectedly returns to set, Anna must decide if she is ready to fully take the lead in her career. With Russ by her side Anna realizes she is much more capable than she originally thought.
