Fifteen years ago, Ang Lee wrote and directed an Oscar-nominated film called Eat Drink Man Woman.
The story, set in Taipei, revolves around elaborate Sunday dinners put on by a master chef and his three daughters.
(Okay, really it revolves around their love lives but what's a good food story without a little love?)
It isn't a film you see around all that much but it's being screened tonight in Cambridge and you are invited. You are also invited to munch on dumplings throughout the movie (which is another activity you don't see around all that much.)
Drinks afterward -- beer? Gewurztraminer? baijiu?? -- are completely up to you.
