Watching the Alphabet (2027 Movie Project)

Welcome to my 2027 movie project where I watch a movie and eat a dish that corresponds with every letter from A to Z. Dinners are inspired by the movie, the place its from and of course, the letter of the alphabet. Since a few letters are absent or difficult in many languages these are slightly lax guidelines but hopefully you can see the connections. You can watch along with me or use this as inspiration for your own movie project.

Reviews can be seen by clicking on the movie poster as their completed 🙂
