A Christmas Princess

 

Jessica is a trained chef who is struggling to keep her new restaurant open. It's a cute place that has so much potential and life, but customers are absent from the details. Her dream is to be a successful chef in New York. However, she and her team are lacking the exposure it deserves.

Prince Jack and his parents are hosting a Christmas banquet in New York and a popular chef is booked for the prestigious event. Gideon Oliver has a few appetizers in mind for the banquet. Jack isn't impressed with his culinary ideas and wants the food to involve Christmas. The chef doesn't understand what he means and he's fired from representing the event. The chef pleads Jack to change his mind and the prince refuses to listen.

While Jack is driven in the city, he tells the driver to stop because he wants a news paper. They stop, he gets out of the car and smells something cooking inside Jessica's restaurant. He goes inside and enters the kitchen and asks Ernie whats he cooking. Jessica walks in and doesn't know who Jack is and tells him to go back to the dining hall. 

He orders the meatloaf and calls it loaf of meat. He also orders coffee while Jessica is still frustrated with her early meeting with the land lord telling her she only has one month to pay her rent. She offers the prince some cookies and placed the plate down loudly.

In the kitchen Jessica says to Ernie, "he has some nerve huh." Hailee says, "Do you know who that is?" And she said, "Prince John...From Edgemont. You know, he's in all the papers." Jessica doesn't believe he's a prince. Perhaps its because his body guard isn't with him. 

Prince John likes being called Jack and this is why he's called that name among friends and family.

The Prince enjoyed the meatloaf and asks Jessica several questions and question is amazing for a struggling chef. He asks her to be the chef for the royal crowns 👑 Christmas banquet. Jessica is impressed and doubtful. She tells him she'll think about it. He kisses her hand and walks out.

Hailee is impressed with the offer and laughs at Jessica. Her friends encourages her to take the offer, and that's what friends are for. Jessica goes home and tells her parents everything that happens and her mother knew who the prince was because she watches TMZ. 

The next day Jessica wakes up to the familiar sound of the prince talking. They're looking at photos of Jessica when she was younger. Jessica is embarrassed and asks the prince if he's bugging the phones too. 

He gives her a lot of money and says he trusts her. The money was the answer to Jessica's problems and she couldn't say no. Perhaps it was a good idea to think about it because her life will ever be the same.

The offer still stands and she agrees to cater the banquet. People found out and She's being called The Princess of Brooklyn. Imagine being stocked and the world chasing you because you"re friends with Jack. The Prince and Jessica leave town to get away from the paparazzi and tabloids. 

The queen of Edgemont isn't pleased with the news and admits Jessica is pretty. She is so concerned she calls in Lady Eliza, a potential wife for Jack. They all took a flight together and safely arive to New York City. 

The prince is warned concerning his mother. And Jessica and her parents arrive at the a private engagement with the prince and his parents. The meeting was cold and Jessica leaves early. She stays away for a little while and goes to her restaurant and discovers her friends and family in the kitchen cooking.

The banquet happens and the food is delicious. Jack introduces Jessica and all is well with a kiss at the end. People cheer and they're are happy.

My personal take on this movie is that it's cute and fun to watch. The Christmas Spirit is there. However, there's a lack of chemistry between Jack and Jessica. They seem more like friends than lovers. I guess this is how it's meant to be. This movie has a four star 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 rating from RMR.
