I’ve only heard of
it online. What is it? I mean, really?

As far as
we can tell, it is about a rat living in the sewers of Paris, France, who has a more sophisticated appetite than
the run of the mill sewer garbage. And, I’m putting my best faith in Pixar to create a very rich plot out of
that…
Ratatouille, literally, is also some kind of a dish.
For some time, we all
believed that THAT was the main character’s name. But it’s been clear for some time that his name shall be
Remy.
Ratatouille is actually a French dish- quite sauce-like, usually made with mushrooms,
tomatoes, and green vegetables.
And French children usually don’t like ratatouille at all (I know what I’m talking about ![]()
).
Yeah, the teaser trailers are usually annoying.
Like the cars one, you have no clue
what the movie will be about. LOL. I suppose it adds to the excitement.
This is funny. Like the children who don’t like
ratatouille, the chefs in the kitchen don’t like rats. Do you guys get the connection?
Yeah, I don’t
think that was intentional but well spotted.
I saw the trailer to that movie when I went to
see Cars I gotta say it looks kinda intersting
Yeah, it’s Pixar.
I dread the
day of the dud, I mean, look at Disney, they churned out unreal movies, in the 30’s/40’s and now look at them,
they had to cling onto Pixar or they were in trouble.
Personally, I think that Disney started to go downhill when Disney himself died, or at least
when he wasn’t able to be as involved with his company. He was the heart behind it all, and without him, it
didn’t work as well.

I had Ratatouille on a cruise a few weeks ago. It was
really good.
But it’s probably not as good as the film is going to be!!!
Yeah, haha. This looks good as
any, apart from Cars.
I had Ratatouille last night for dinner. I saw it was being served in the cafeteria, and I just couldn’t call
myself a true Pixar fan if I didn’t eat it.
It was really good. ![]()
Please clarify what it is again.
"This Ni?oise dish is much more than a vegetable
soup. It can be prepared fairly quickly by cooking everything together at the same time, but that needs to be
done in the correct sequence to not miss out the art and the flavour of the dish.
It’s also true that
the recipe can legitimately vary (somewhat) according to tastes, but the variations should be based on
experience. The volume is also very variable.
“Too much” doesn’t apply to ratatouille. Cook it
the first time, and eat it hot as the main course; then have it again later as a cold hors-d’oeuvre. In the
summer time, it’s great as a cold main-course dish. It keeps for several days in the refridgerator. Ratatouille
is good served with couscous grain (semoule) or rice.

LOL, thanks Chef.
Seems that everyone beat me to it (to telling
the plot). ![]()
Haha – I felt the same! I printed out the recipe and pasted it on
the fridge…so that my mom had to make it sooner or later. (hehe) And yes, it was
su-PERB. My sister said that it tasted like “veggie oatmeal”. ![]()
