What they share
Both films are directed by Ang Lee, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Eat Drink Man Woman is
Ang Lee takes a stab at domestic dramedy. A widowed chef notices that his three adult daughters are all dating. Stuff happens, people pair off, and someone makes a meal that looks amazing.
