Synopsis
Cook Up a Storm (2017) — watch online this Hong Kong-Chinese culinary drama from director Yip Wai Man, starring Edison Chen as Sky Tsui, a Cantonese street food cook whose stall sits directly across from a Michelin-starred restaurant. His rival Paul Ahn trained in France and has never hidden his contempt for wok-tossed comfort food.
Their low-level feud escalates when both land spots on a live competitive cooking show, with careers and pride equally at stake. Then the real threat turns up — someone neither of them expected — and the only way through it is together.
The film is unabashedly crowd-pleasing: slow-cooked pork belly in close-up, clashing culinary philosophies, and an ending built around the idea that the best dishes don't belong to any one tradition. Stream Cook Up a Storm online on iFILM.
