Chef Peng
Directors: Fabia Martin, Freddie Martin
Type: Documentary
Country of production: UK
Language: Mandarin, English
Duration: 8 minutes
🎞️
From Taiwan to London, cooking is the foundation of his presence in the UK, and food is the language he uses here. Over the past 50 years, as a unique Chinese food innovator, Chef Peng has constantly challenged people's established perceptions of Chinese food and British culture, and used his kitchen philosophy to make the restaurant "Hunan" one of the most distinctive food destinations in London.
The camera quietly lives in a corner of the kitchen, following Chef Peng to touch, smell, taste, and talk with diners to draw inspiration for cooking. He keeps shuttling between the dining table and the kitchen - just as the silent kitchen waiting for orders at the beginning of the film alternates with the boiling and boiling hot stir-fry scenes, the cooking scenes presented in this documentary are also his half-life.
