in a troubling way.
Skewers the foodie craze, broils restaurant reviewers, makes mincemeat out of idolization,
dices and slices class differences, stir fries the pretentious and serves as an entertaining
(even with a side of broken emulsion) slice of satire.
Three stars.
Ralph Fiennes and Anya Taylor-Joy are delightful, the rest of the crew and guests above
par for the course(s).
Streaming on HBO.

Wonderful movie, and so apt that Noma shut down last week. Noma sounds just like the place satirized in the movie.
And I'm making cheeseburgers tomorrow...
P.S. If you are a burger connoisseur, be sure to check out George Motz on YouTube. He is the ANTI-Slowik, and somehow he makes a point of burning the heck out of his mouth with every burger he makes.
Funny though that Noma made the announcement that they would close
in TWO YEARS (or at least change their gig) and THAT made "news".
PERFECT Noma line in Tar, too.
All those cult, EST like groupsthinks had their place in the sun for a while and that
NEED (for something) seems to have transferred to chefs and food and...dining.
At least you get a meal out of it.
Fine dining is great, obsessed with the WHOLE process a wee bit less so.
Thanks, I'lll check out George Motz.

I enjoyed it and as you said, Ralph Fiennes and Anya Taylor-Joy are delightful.
Damn, that cheeseburger looked good.

reelsmith's axiom: Its going to be used equipment when I sell it, so it may as well be used equipment when I buy it.
It was entertaining but I'm not a fan of it tbh. I found the premise absurd (but get the satire point in spades). I'd give it 3* as well (out of 5).

"E Burres Stigano?"
about such (or at least the concept of it).
Certainly MUCH more appealing than... foam.
That sequence was VERY well played!!
And, yes, we had cheeseburgers the following night.

Yes, that scene was the best few minutes of the flick.
I'm sure I'll watch it again one day. I'm a fan of satire.
