Big Night (1996)

In a restaurant run by two Italian immigrants, the tables sit empty despite the extraordinary talents of Primo the chef (Tony Shalhoub, “Monk”) and the ambitious efforts of his brother Secondo (Stanley Tucci, The Devil Wears Prada). A celebrity night at their restaurant promises not only to turn their business around but to change their lives.

It’s a five-course gourmet experience filled with rich, delicious characters including the marriage-minded girlfriend (OscarĀ® nominee Minnie Driver), the seductive mistress (Isabella Rossellini) and the successful rival (OscarĀ® nominee Ian Holm). From the first bite to the last, this critically-acclaimed movie dishes up an irresistible evening of scrumptious entertainment.

Here’s an excerpt scene (and recipe): Il Timpano
