Tasting Menu

One of the greatest restaurants in the world is closing and an eclectic mix of international patrons has arrived in beautiful Catalonia for the final dinner service in this witty and delicious ensemble comedy. As the staff prepares and serve an audacious tasting menu, an estranged husband and wife, a nerdy dedicated doctor and a gorgeous best-selling writer, who made their reservation a year ago (before splitting up) reunite for this once-in-a-lifetime meal. Will their romance be rekindled with the help of the widowed countess dining with her late husband's ashes? Will the two competitive Japanese investors finalize a deal with the brilliant chef and lure her to Japan? Will the demanding chef pull off a tour-de-force farewell worthy of her talents and her diners’ expectations? Will the musicians who are scheduled to perform survive their disastrous sea journey?

An Irish/Spanish co-production, TASTING MENU, like all great ensemble dramedies centered on culinary delights, is a crowd-pleasing mishmash of relationships, feuds and broken dreams that are mended through the simple act of “breaking bread” and the universal appreciation of great food. Similar in style to foodie classics like BIG NIGHT, BABETTE’S FEAST and CHOCOLAT, TASTING MENU will leave you awash in a European sensation of joie de vivre.
