Chef (2014)

It's delectable. This is simply a faultless feel-good comedy.  You can't go wrong with a movie about food!  Rachel Ray is always talking about a future in which there exists the smell-evision.  This film left me also wanting taste-evision.  Not only does it look like it tastes good, but the food genuinely looks good. Points for plating.

Jon Favreau leads a star studded cast.  I particularly enjoyed the supporting cast, especially John Leguizamo. Along with the Latin jazz soundtrack and Miami setting, he adds to the fun, Latin atmosphere of the film.

This is a very modern film.  Food trucks are the latest craze and the movie also highlights the power of social media.  Because of this, the film feels fresh even though the idea is not so original (man loses job, reinvents himself).
