Fireworks Pick Up the Flavor
Alternative Film Review
I couldn’t find a better promotional poster for this documentary on Baidu, so I only have this one!
"Firework atmosphere" may be the true flavor of the human world. A city with "firework atmosphere" must be a prosperous market and people living and working in peace and contentment.
"Eating" - to a large extent, is not only a symbol of adequate food and clothing. In today's increasingly fast-paced life, it has indeed been linked to spiritual enjoyment!
The documentary is based on five time-honored restaurants in the city - from the aspects of dishes, steamed buns, noodles, coffee, humanities and culture, it introduces the different customs of eating in the city.
"Fireworks Picking Up the Flavor" is not the first food documentary to be turned into a humanistic blockbuster.
But when focusing on several time-honored catering companies in a city - in this way, the elaboration of food culture is more than just superficial deliciousness!
Perhaps eating in the Magic City is not only the taste of "eating", but also the style and humanities of the metropolis.
A cup of coffee, a bowl of saury noodles, or just a steamed bun, maybe while tasting the beautiful taste, you are being immersed in the magical city of Shanghai little by little!
