Ratatouille
By peace | September 23, 2007
Although each of the world’s countries would like to dispute this fact, the French know the truth: the best food in the world is made in France. The best food in France is made in Paris and the best food in Paris, soem say, was made by Chef Auguste Gusteau. Gusteau’s restaurant was the toast of Paris, booked five months in advance, and his dazzling ascent to the top of fine French cuisine made his competitors envious. He was the youngest chef ever to achieve a five-star rating.
As Gusteau himself once said,” Good food is like music you can taste, colour you can smell. There is excellence all around you; you need only to be aware to stop and savour it.”
Chef Gusteau’s cookbook, Anyone Can Cook, climbed to the top of the bestseller list. But not everyone celebrated its success.
Anton Ego, noted food critic, was one of the naysayers. “Amusing title, Anyone Can Cook!” he once said with a sneer. “What’s even more amusing is that Gusteau actually seems to believe. I, on the other hand, take cooking seriously, and no, I don’t think ‘anyone’ can do it.”
But who was right? Was it true that anyone — regardless of upbringing, training or type of kitchen — could cook a meal fine enough to satisfy even a notoriously impossible-to-please man like Anton Ego?
Remy is a rat who enjoys the finer things in life. When a happy accident lands him in the kitchen of a Parisian restaurant, he cannot resist helping a hapless cook create culinary masterpieces that have all of Paris waiting in line for a taste. With a little encouragement from an imaginary master chef, Remy gets his new friend out from under the thumb of the restaurant’s cruel manager and follows his own drams of becoming a great chef.
Ratatouille, a very nice and interesting show, our family had watched over the weekends. I would rate it a five stars. My niece loves the show too. I thought it was a children show, and that audience who comes to watch the show must mostly children. However, I was wrong. Most of the people who came to watch the show are adults. Most are couples and there were only a few children who actually came to watch the show. I must say it is a very entertaining show. Good for both adults and children.
