Tom Cruise and Kelly McGillis in Top Gun (1986)

This is my constantly expanding list of big screen movies, videos, TV movies or TV miniseries which revolve around food, cooking, gastronomy, kitchen or restaurant life, or where food is just a significant MacGuffin. 

Because this is a compilation of films in one very particular subject field, I have chosen to include all titles that are in any way relevant to the culinary arts, being fully aware there are some really bad stinkers among these. However, in contrast, on this list there are also many truly remarkable cinematic masterpieces, which for one reason or another, are either totally unknown or criminally underappreciated.

NOTE: This list does not include any documentaries, cooking demos, game shows or reality TV shows. For obvious reasons all cannibalism related titles are also excluded.
