Movie #3044 " A Pinch of Portugal" (Hallmark) The title suggests this might be something different, and it was --- first of all, it was in Portugal (a place I might like to visit some day, so I watched it for that reason), and the pinch refers to a food metaphor because it is about a woman who is supposed to help set up a cooking show that a famous on -air chef runs --- but he's cranky, and he hasn't shown up, so she is forced to do it all ---- and, surprise! surprise! She can! Well, with the support of her photographer and friends. There are drop dead gorgeous shots of Portugal, But the girl is a bit bland --- too hesitant and slow for me. Her photographer assistant is cute, but he spends too much time telling her sh'e pretty and awesome, that it gets to be lame. Food is the stage business here which kept me watching --- that and the scenery. I'd give it a 3 out of 5
