Rice Rhapsody (Singapore), 2004
Synopsis: Rice Rhapsody is a family comedy with themes of good cooking, acceptance and familial love.
The film is set in Singapore’s Chinatown. Ms. Jen Fan is a single mother of three grown sons and an owner of a successful restaurant. Her signature dish is the "Hainan Chicken Rice" and is well known throughout Singapore.
Jen’s oldest sons, Daniel and Harry are gay, and Jen is determined for the youngest son, Leo to not turn out gay. Leo has become Jen’s life; she is pinning all her hopes of grandchildren on him.
She enlists the help of her friend Kim-Chui, who owns a restaurant next door to hers. He is less successful than Jen, but has been in love with her for all these years.
She and Kim-Chui hatch a plan that involves bringing a female French exchange student to stay at Jen's house to seduce Leo.
Chef Martin Yan is known for his cooking; after this film, you’ll believe that Yan can ACT!
