We love food related movies, cooking shows, etc. My personal favorites are Babette’s Feast and Vatel, but than again I like period pieces and Vatel is based on the real Chef that worked for Luis XIV in 1671. Also love the dialog in Trip. Jim’s favorites are Big Night and The Hundred Foot Journey, he can’t explain why. James likes Samurai Gourmet, his reason when asked, “Mom it’s got a Samurai in it!” So here you have it.
