We take another break from Indian Cinema Month to check out a black comedy horror takedown of the haute-cuisine world of Alinea and Noma: The Menu. Taking place at Hawthorn, an exclusive restaurant on an island, the film follows the staff and guests through a tasting menu unlike anything they've ever experienced. Know as little as possible going in and, if you're a fan of Chef's Table, your culinary itch is guaranteed to be scratched.

DC Titan's Richard Hatem and '80s TV Ladies Susan Lambert Hatem join Chris to talk about the film, the biting satire, and whether the film goes far enough with the concept.
