Asian Food & Film: Tampopo

Before the Food Channel created a fetish of food, there was Tampopo. In this humorous paean to the joys of food, a mysterious trucker rides into a small town to help Tampopo set up the perfect fast food noodle restaurant. As Tampopo perfects his menu, vignettes about food’s many diverse—and naughty—uses are folded into this delicious tale. [1985, Japan, 114 min.]
