Post Best food film?

My vote for best food movie is "Eat Drink Man Woman." The food shots are awesome. The storyline is good too, but for those of us who are in awe of food, this is a must see. What's your vote for best food movie?

SIMPLY IRRESISTIBLE starring Sarah Michelle Gellar (BUFFY), this movie is so kyoote, a must see for food lover and romantic fanatics.

But, I agree with you KUAN on EAT Man..that movie made me so hungry, watchin the father cook all those delicious meals. The filming was superb.

Dear Kuan:

The best food film that I saw was Fellini's "Grand Buffet". A Classic!

I have only seen a little of Babettes Feast, the interesting thing is I work for a chef who actually worked on the film. I think he was an apprentice under the Chef in charge of all the food, anyway,he actually worked on it. He has shown me the actual notes and shopping lists, faxes and all the different menus that were considered. We, with the local university's foreign film department may show the film then do the exact menu....that would be pretty exciting!

fontzmark,

That's AWSOME! I'm so excited for you!

Yes, yes! Please keep us posted! Does this mean you will finally view the film in it's entirety?

(How do I get an invitation? )

Best Food Movie? A tie between TAMPOPO and EAT DRINK MAN WOMAN. Best restaurant movie? BIG NIGHT. Best eating movie? The wonderful but grotesque LE GRANDE BOUFFE in which four aging bachelors decide to eat and shag themselves to death. ...ANTHONY BOURDAIN

It is not my favourite film but it was a good one: Fried Green Tomatoes.
