Chef
8/10
Mala
and I went to see this movie Chef that has managed to sip right past
me when it came out a few months ago. The only thing I knew about
this movie was that Jon Favreau was in it and there was food. So I
made sure that we got full at the Arclight Cafe before seeing the
movie (I'll be writing about that on my food blog soon). So we headed
inside and checked out what turned out to be a really good film.
Favreau
wrote, directed, and starred in this as Carl Casper, a professional
chef that is stuck in a rut. He wants to be more creative with what
he is making but the guy who runs the restaurant, Riva played by
Dustin Hoffman, reminds him whose place it is and to calm his shit
and just make what he's told. Molly played by Scarlett Johansson who
is the hostess and everyone is getting excited because a food critic
is coming. His sous chef Bobby Cannavale and line cook John Leguizamo
are incredible in this and I laughed every time they were on screen.
