And although there are many films about delicious food, there are many talented chefs, these five are recommended for viewing.

The film is based on the novel of the same name by Joanne Harris. The action takes place in a small French town that lives a quiet provincial life. The tranquility is disturbed by the arrival of the heroine Vienne and her daughter Anouk. Vienne opens a sweet shop, where he prepares real masterpieces, guessing the tastes of all his customers.

Vienne meets the man she has been looking for for so long.
“Irresistible Martha”, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, 2001
The life of Martha, a talented chef at a French restaurant in Hamburg, is full of fast-paced events. And in this bustle there is no place for personal life and entertainment. After the tragic events in her family, she has to take custody of her niece. The new chef in the restaurant, who at first insanely annoys the main character and seems to her to be a serious competitor, finds an approach to both the little girl and her aunt.
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, USA, 2005
A fairy tale worth watching with children. About how dreams come true and why you should always be yourself. A little boy from a poor family finds himself in the place he always dreamed of – the Willy Wonka chocolate factory. A stunning colorful musical journey into the realm of sweets!
“Taste of Life”, USA, Australia, 2007
A romantic story of a strict and proper chef, who does not give slack in anything, and an incorrigible, cheerful romantic who is trying to win the heart of an unapproachable girl. When the heroes get to know each other better, their views on the ongoing turmoil change.
“Chef”, France, 2012
An aspiring chef is trying to build a career and get a calling. Possessing considerable talent and perseverance, he, however, meets the resistance of an ossified hardened cook, who does not want to open up to something new in any way. All the cooks in the film, except for the two main characters, are real professionals in their field, not actors.
