Top Ten Tuesday: Foodie TV and movies

• • • • • •

 

 



Welcome to this week's edition of Top Ten Tuesday which is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week the them

e is Non-book Freebie so I decided to talk about foreign movies.



The whole point of this post at the beginning was to talk about a movie called Language Lessons which I watched a couple of weeks ago and really enjoyed. Then I started putting my list together and realised that I could easily make a list of ten which are all about food! So here are ten foreign foodie TV series or movies I have enjoyed. 





Midnight Diner (Japan) - I have watched a season and a half of this. Every now and again I think I should watch more. (Review here)





Foodie Love (Spain) - I binged watched this during lockdown (Review here)





Tuesday Club (Sweden) - I watched this as part of the Scandinavian Film Festival and really enjoyed it! (review here)





Babette's Feast (Sweden) - Something of a foodie film classic. (Review here)





The Perfect Dinner (Italy) - I saw this one as part of the Italian Film Festival last year. (Review here)





The Recipe (Korea) - This was one of the earliest foreign movies I posted about on this blog. (review here)





The Tasting (France) - My most recent French Film Festival movie. I saw this a couple of weeks ago and just posted about it last weekend. (review here)





Delicious (France) - This is supposedly the story of the first restaurant although I am not sure how historically correct it is! (review here)





Kings of Pastry (France) - These days I watch Bake Off:  The Professionals to see amazing creations like the ones in this, but these were next level. (review here)






Romantics Anonymous (France) -  I have probably watched this movie 3 or 4 times over the years. It is a lovely film (review here)



Oh, and watch Language Lessons. It was good!



I will be sharing this post with Weekend Cooking which I host here each Saturday.

    Who knew there were so many films about food??? Have to say, I don't know any of these. The only one that comes to my mind is Chef from 2014 about a chef that starts a food truck. Touching and humorous....

      Chef was a great movie! I might have to do another list with English movies. Pretty sure I can come up with 10 foodie movies easily!

    I loved Chef but thanks for the suggestions about so many foodie movies here. Will see if the library can get some of these.
