(Lasse Hallström, 2014)
In the south of France, Madam Mallory’s restaurant is by far the best. However a family of Indian immigrants opens its own restaurant, “Maison Mumbai”, right across the street. A feud erupts.
Why we like it: For the rivalry between the two chefs.
What to eat during the film: Indian Butter Chicken
And you, what is your favourite food film?
Babatte’s Feast should be on this list if only to show how people can be swayed by food in all it’s glory
Chocolat with Juliette Binoche, Judy Dench and Johnny Depp is UNFORGETTABLE!
I would like to add the following 2 movies: Like Water for Chocolate and Dona Flor and her two husbands.
L’Odeur de la Papaye Verte (The Scent of Green Papaya) should have been on the list, it is a wonderful movie. Also agree with another comment about Babette’s Feast which should have been no. 1 on your list.
Totally Babette’s feast #1
Also Tampopo should have definitively be there.
