Excellent Entertainment

L@K Your from A Birmingham /Belgrade /Edmonton Production, 4th February, 2005

Tampopo, a widowed noodle chef, is helped to become a first class chef by friends. Food is the theme throughout this movie and it includes novel uses of food as an erotic toy.There are a number of smaller stories about the importance of food, ranging from a gangster who mixes hot sex with food to a truck driver who helps tampopo achieve her perfect noodles--a great film and also great fun.

Very entertaining

A series of short stories focussed around food. The main story is the setting up of noodle bar by a unlikely group of friends, but others include the death of a gangster, and the death of the wife/mother in a family. Touching, funny, and culturally interesting.

Tampopo

Deliriously blissful and sublime portrayal of the joy of food - or rather, of eating food. A 'must see' for all food maniacs. Watch out for the most wonderful demonstration of omelette making you will ever witness. Perfect, delicate and poetic. Treasure every moment.
