Comedy, Drama, Romance

Hippolyte, the chef at the small Paris restaurant of the title, is losing his sense of smell - and without that, you can’t cook. Not in France. The restaurant has to close. Guests and customers of the ailing master chef gather for one last fabulous meal. Between courses, personal conflicts are explored and flashbacks flesh out incidents from the lives of the restaurant owners.

Plot

After twenty-five years of practice in a popular district of Paris, Hippolyte and Josephine decided to close their restaurant. Not for economic or urbanistic reasons but, more serious, because Hippolyte is suffering from a cancer of the nose which deprives him to the taste and to smell.
