Wow, this was an experience

I didn't expect this movie to be this.. good. There was some genuinely interesting aspects in this and this is without a doubt one of the better movies I have seen in a while. And you do have to see it with your own eyes to comprehend the nuances of the plot.

I am not a fan of fine dining, just give me a vegan burger with sweet potatoe fries and a glass of sparkling water and I'm good. But this movie gave me a mouthful of intriguing ingredients and I was honestly wishing I could eat those darn foods. I really liked how they made the characters kind of awful but not over the top. The "main guy" with the obsession for cooking shows was a riot. He was so weird and funny and when everyone else was distraught, he just kept eating and enjoying and I loved it. Ralph Fiennes as the chef was also (like Ralph always is) just fantastic.

My favorite meal was the mess. Such a viceral experience.
