Step Up To The Plate



THIS IS THE BEST CULINARY MOVIE OUT, MOVE OVER EL BULLI
MICHEL BRAS, the inventor of the Molten Lava Cake, This chef and his son
Sebastien passion for food goes above beyond perfection. Good and Long I didn't want it stop, also the deleted scenes are over an hour, and gives a rich history on Bras started.. I'm excited talking about now, I'm about to go watch again.

More about the father & son relationship
While there was plenty of culinary eye candy, especially with the creation of some signature dishes such as the "Gargouillou", this was more about the relationship between father and son during the transition of the Bras restaurants. One obviously conjures up "Jiro Dreams of Sushi" which offers a interesting contrast with this film for the food and relationship. Ironically some of this film is devoted to the Bras restaurant in Japan.

Beautifully Done
Michel Bras is a master, and turning his restaurant over to son Sebastian is a huge leap. This film provides a real look at the people behind the restaurant and captures the intensity and dedication of both men (and their colleagues). The outtakes/extra footage provided is absolutely worth viewing (they take up as mach time as the finished film) as they take you even deeper into what makes this one of the most respected restaurants in the world.
