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 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."

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)
