In this week’s delectable episode of Fabulously Delicious: The French Food Podcast, host Andrew Prior takes listeners on a cinematic journey celebrating the rich intersection of French cuisine and film. Timed to coincide with the glittering start of the Cannes Film Festival, this episode explores how French gastronomy has taken center stage in some of the most memorable food-focused films. From palace kitchens to rustic countryside fare, the episode dives into stories where food isn’t just a background detail — it’s a central character. First up is Haute Cuisine (Les Saveurs du Palais), a film inspired by Danièle Mazet-Delpeuch, the first female chef to cook for the French president. Andrew walks us through this sumptuous, real-life tale of culinary passion and political pressure, reflecting on the beauty of traditional regional cooking and its quiet power in even the most formal settings. With behind-the-scenes trivia and reflections on Catherine Frot’s acclaimed performance, the film serves as a perfect entrée to the episode’s theme: food as memory, resistance, and art. Then it’s on to Le Chef (Comme un Chef), a rollicking comedy that pairs classic French cooking with modern chaos. Andrew explores the film’s humor and heart, as well as the tug-of-war between culinary tradition and innovation. Featuring Jean Reno and Michaël Youn, Le Chef playfully pokes fun at molecular gastronomy while reaffirming the joy and timelessness of French cuisine. It’s a reminder that behind every Michelin star is a lot of butter, a few egos, and a shared love of good food. And of course, no conversation about food in cinema would be complete without a nod to Babette’s Feast, the Danish masterpiece that so perfectly embodies the spirit of French dining that it simply had to be included. Whether you're a film buff, a food lover, or a little bit of both, this episode is a feast for the senses. So pour a glass of wine, grab a chunk of baguette, and settle in for a fabulously delicious celebration of French cuisine on the big screen.
