Tasty | Gardutė at Triskel Arts Centre, Cork, on Friday 4 April. Two low-level chefs bluff their way into a televised cooking competition where the winner gets their very own restaurant. Part of the Baltic Film Festival.
This lively culinary comedy mixes cheesy TV drama, witty satire, friendship melodrama and lively folk songs. Best friends Ona and Saule work as chefs in a small canteen in Kaunas, called Tasty. One day, Saule signs them up for a televised cooking contest by creating fake restaurant profiles, and they miraculously get in. The prize? The winner will receive their very own restaurant. Turning up to the show, the unlikely pair are the clear underdogs, struggling to compete with their idol, chef Madame Brukne – and they are not sure how to handle even the simplest requests like cooking “operatives” (aka aperitifs).
Preceded by a reception at 5:30pm that will start the Baltic Film Festival.
