25 (Mostly) Delicious Food-Related Movie Lines

There’s nothing like a mouth-watering closeup of a perfectly prepared meal.

Think “Big Night,” “Chef” and a dozen other movies dedicated to our love of fabulous food. We watch them over and again just to savor what they serve.

Some films simply evoke a favorite dish or drink with a well-excuted line of dialogue.

• Comedies

They all understand our deep connection to the food on our plate.
