Ratatouille

He’s dying to become a chef.


Ratatouille
Pixar's latest animated treat has attracted rave reviews. Set in Paris, where our hero, a rat, is washed down the sewer and ends up alone near a famous restaurant. The main chef has just had a bad review and died from shock. The new chef is not very good, but has appointed his nephew as chief dish washer. The rat knows a thing or two about food and cooking, and makes friends with the dishwasher. As things progress, the rat starts to help the dishwasher to cook, and soon his reputation spreads. Now the notorious food critic is coming for a return visit...
