Yum Yum Yum (Les Blank, 1990)

Famed director Les Blank's passion for spicy, down-home food meets his love for Cajuns and Creoles in this mouth-watering exploration of the cooking and other enthusiasms of French-speaking Louisiana. (IMDb)

Chef! (Lenny Henry, 1993)

We surprise you with an episode from this British sitcom series about a foul-mouthed chef running a restaurant and seeking perfection while teetering on the brink of financial disaster. (Wikipedia)

Buffet: All You Can Eat Las Vegas (Natasha Schull, 2006)

Schull's camera journeys through Sin City's all-you can-eat buffets and finds a kaleidoscope of characters behind the food, from tireless chefs preparing gargantuan bowls of ambrosia, to servers who bus endless plates, to hungry diners in search of a culinary jackpot and a portion of the American dream. The SF Chronicle calls it "an ode to gluttony." (Film website)

This Is My Cheesesteak (Ben Daniels, 2007)

Follow Ben Daniels on a journey to discover the history and meaning of the cheesesteak, as told by the owners of the most famous steak shops in Philadelphia and their devotees. (Film website)

Total run time for all films is 2 hours. Full details at www.food24fps.com.
