The Secret Restaurateur: The Menu perfectly exposes the world of gastro-snobbery
The movie, which stars Ralph Fiennes, is a must watch for any of us with an interest in food and the restaurant business
Do we foodies take ourselves a little too seriously? I’ve always thought so, and my view was underlined by a brilliant film I saw in the cinema recently.
The Menu stars Ralph Fiennes as a reclusive celebrity chef running his own exclusive restaurant on a private island. It’s a black comedy which mercilessly ridicules virtually every aspect of high-end restaurant culture, and is a must-watch for every restaurateur, chef, server and member of kitchen staff.
