Funke

Calling all pasta lovers: let us tantalize you with this sizzling foodie doc about the highs and lows of following your passion. Finding himself in hot water when his LA restaurant goes under, Chef Evan Funke seeks solace in his obsession: the dying art of handmade pasta. Immersing himself in authentic pasta making (did you know there’s over 300 varieties?), Funke builds enough steam to open a new spot on one of the most competitive streets in the US. Insisting that handmade noodles are front and center (literally with a windowed view for diners) the question becomes: will he whip the place into shape, or does it all go down the drain? Capturing the heat of the restaurant world and with plentiful helpings of food porn, we know you’ll agree that this film is al dente.
