This's a really nice movie in a while.
The movie's about the story of an Indian family moving to France and their opening of an Indian family restaurant opposite a Michelin one star French restaurant.
A success(?) story of how an Indian boy chef went from zero to hero. I guess even his success is contestable. What does one consider success? Having your loved ones with you and opening a homey family restaurant, working hard together? Or is it the prestige associated with working at highly rated Michelin star restaurants?
How much you're willing to compromise and adapt as an immigrant... these are heavy issues masked by a very pretty french landscape and yummy looking cuisines.
I really love the village vibe in the setting. The suburban landscape and farmer's market. The nature.
This contrasts so much with the city life with I so love and hate at the same time.
Perhaps I can start by learning how to cook an omelette.
