Ferran Takes On Disney


Don’t know about you but I CANT WAIT for the release of Disney’s new movie ‘Ratatouille’ set to hit cinemas this June 29th. What could be better than the unthinkable combination of a rat and a 5 star gourmet restaurant coming together? ‘Remy’ the Rat dreams of becoming a great chef despite his families objections and the obvious problem of being a rat in a decidedly rodent-phobic profession. When fate places Remy in the city of Paris, he finds himself ideally situated beneath a restaurant made famous by his culinary hero ‘Auguste Gusteau’. Despite the apparent dangers of being an unwanted visitor in the kitchen of one of Paris’ most exclusive restaurants, Remy forms an unlikely partnership with ‘Linguini’ the garbage boy and strikes a deal that ultimately sets in motion a chain of events that turn the culinary world of Paris upside down. Interestingly, If you are living here in Spain our very own gastronomic guru 'Ferran Adria' can be heard in the Spanish version of the movie. Ferran has taken time out from being one of the worlds most talked about chefs to lend his voice to one of the posh restaurant clients. He says he definitely approves of enticing young minds towards the kitchen "Today millions of children want to be chefs - something unthinkable ten years ago."

That is cool to know, maybe one day when my Spanish skills are up to par I can watch that version and understand what he says.
