Synopsis

Tonally over-the-top and absolutely irresistible. Bring your appetite because TAMPOPO is a steamy love story, a food-porn movie, and the world’s first “ramen Western.” None of these flavors should work together, but they do — like a perfect bowl of noodles. Hal Hinson of the Washington Post calls it “perhaps the funniest movie about the connection between food and sex ever made.”
