Umami plot
"Food is symbolic of talk when the words are missing."
Gabriel Carvin is one of the most successful chefs in France to receive his third Michelin star. Though there is little reason to celebrate. The ever-unhappy Gabriel devotes himself only to his kitchen, drinks too much and is married to a woman who is unfaithful to him. He also has hardly any contact with his sons Jean and Nino. When he tries hypnosis, he remembers his loss in a culinary contest from years ago.

Burnt-out master chef Gabriel Carvin [Gérard Depardieu] decides to leave his family restaurant behind for a trip to Japan, hoping to draw inspiration from Tetsuichi Morita [Kyôzô Nagatsuka], who defeated him in a major culinary competition 40 years ago. Gabriel's wife [Sandrine Bonnaire] and son [Rod Paradot] are now on their own, just as a leading culinary influencer [Assa Sylla] has announced that he will be reviewing the restaurant. The title refers to the good things in life. Trite culinary drama is slow with a bored-looking Depardieu and corny tile wisdom.
