A romantic comedy about food should evoke some hunger pangs, as
well as some mouthwatering oohs and aahs for the sheer visuals of
food that you'll probably swear you can smell and taste, if done
right. However, the first reactions from Le Grand Chef is
"eeeeeeeeeeeee" followed by plenty of reeling from the graphic
nature of fresh sashimi preparation. The opening scene is the
preparation of fresh golden blowfish, where you'll see the fish
still gasping in its last stages of life, snuffed through a deft
decapitation of its head, followed by the fins, before skinning it
in one fall swoop, disembowelment and the slicing of its meat so
thinly that it's translucent.
