Director’s idea Mark Mulloyd it was simple: he borrowed the path once from the great Louis Buñuel he blew up the bourgeoisie by inviting a few high society guests to an evening from which, in the end, none of them could leave.

All this happened in “Destroying Angel” in 1962 and 2022 Mulloyd took this concept to a high-end restaurant with Ralph Fiennes take on the role of an eccentric and strict chef who strives to take everything to the extreme.

However, we will avoid spoilers “Menu” makes fun of the world of haute cuisine to such an extent that, by the way, from the kitchen of a movie restaurant comes …bread without bread.

Despite all the exaggerations above, sophistication goes hand in hand with fine dining, just as fine dining inevitably cannot be associated with (for a while) the best restaurant in the world, which is none other than Noma. Award winning restaurant in Copenhagen three Michelin Stars, was found top five times list of the best restaurants in the world, and to eat in its hall, you had to book a table for a long, long time.

Therefore, Chef Noma’s recent statement was “extraordinary” news in the food world, Rene Redzepi, as the world’s leading restaurant that opened its doors for the first time 2003 going to serve for the last time in end of 2024 and since then, it will continue to operate as a laboratory for the development of innovative ideas and food products.

Chef René Rezepi explained that the way the restaurant currently operates makes it unsustainable, so conditions need to change. From my side, Greek workers who “lived the dream” and walked through his kitchen Noma, referring to “TO” and Lina Jannarow explained that the working conditions are more than difficult, even working in the kitchen up to 20 hours in a row.

Reggaepi has made no secret in the past that, as a chef, he has not always been able to remain a calm leader in the kitchen, and there has been no shortage of verbal and physical intimidation towards his workers.

And since time sometimes plays strange games, its release time “Menu” which preceded the announcement of his “lockout” by several months. noma it was that the Internet did not fail.

So, for some on social media, The Menu, currently available on HBO Max and Disney+…that’s why Noma closed.

Browsing Twitter, one can come across tweets like this: “I really think René Redzepi saw the Menu and realized what people were thinking about Noma and said ‘this is it’ and that’s why Noma closed.” But even so: “I have not the slightest doubt that the “Menu” was the last blow for Noma.”

Some others, again, were concerned: “Noma is shutting down due to working conditions, and now I’m in a ‘black hole’ looking like crazy if production of ‘Menu’ started before or after.” And in someone’s mind, the main character of the film is responsible for everything: “Anya Taylor-Joy closed Noma with her performance at the Menu in one fell swoop.”

Welcome once again to the magical world of the Internet.
