We were having a great meal with friends and one asked, 'What are the best foodie films?'
Food provides some of the most passionate components of any culture. Food is the primary way to connect with others, then to add it into film is too delicious to consider.
Some are recent films and others are classics, but all are tantalisingly good. Be careful, this list can add the kilos, but it is worth it!
