A distinguished and openly gay chef from Madrid is forced to reevaluate his own morals and values when the children from his former marriage suddenly come knocking, and a handsome ex-football player from Argentina moves in next door. Maxi owns one of the most popular restaurants in the gay-friendly neighbourhood of Chueca. But while Maxi is currently out of the closet, it doesn't mean that he has nothing to hide. Years ago, Maxi fathered several children while involved in a sham marriage. Now Maxi's children want to get better acquainted with their long-lost father, but in order to truly connect with his kids Maxi will first have to come clean about his new lifestyle.

Another Gem from Spain

OscarFreak from , 30th January, 2010

Chef's Special is a gem of a film, with some very witty dialogue, a decent story line and acting that brought the screenplay to life.
