The Wing or the Thigh?

  • Log in or register to post comments

In this comical and scathing adventure, a famous food critic, Charles Duchemin, faces a plot that threatens to ruin his career and his passion for fine dining. Duchemin is practically married to his profession; he and his son, who is also a critic, have been championing high-quality gastronomy in a world filled with mediocrity and fast food. However, the rise of industrial food chains and a mysterious food magnate, intent on destroying haute cuisine, looms over them like a storm cloud.

When he learns that his beloved restaurant is in danger, Duchemin decides to take some time to investigate the unethical practices of the food industry. What begins as a rescue mission turns into a series of hilarious misunderstandings and absurd situations. As he delves into this dark world of frozen food and artificial ingredients, our hero is forced to use all his wits to save what he loves: the true essence of cooking.

With a touch of satire, each scene is packed with clever dialogue and unlikely situations that highlight the disparities between culinary tradition and processed food. As Duchemin navigates this new and strange territory, he also learns valuable lessons about family, the love of cooking, and the importance of protecting authenticity in an increasingly homogenized world. A feast of laughter and reflection!
