Reel Cuisine by Nami Iijima
Few things in life are better matched than dinner and a movie. Whether turned into a fancy night out of town or enjoyed from the comfort of home, food and film were made for each other, providing nourishing and engaging entertainment. Now international food stylist Nami Iijima has brought these two worlds together in what may just be the Academy Awards of Gastronomy! Collected from kitchens seen in big screen hits such as The Godfather, Kramer vs. Kramer, Misery, Juno and Miracle on 34th Street are nearly 100 marquee dishes that are bound to make any meal a hit.
Born in 1969 Tokyo native Nami Iiijima is what is known in the film industry as a professional food-sylist. Iijima has designed and coordinated dishes featured in commercials, TV and film worldwide for the past decade. Iijima developed her talent working in commercials in the early part of the new century. Her accounts included Cupie Mayonaise and Ajinomoto. In 2003 Iijima would move on to take her talents to another realm within the small screen, where her dishes often became the centerpieces for award winning food-themed TV dramas. Developing and presenting numerous meals per episode Iijima would come to induce hunger across Asia with her wholesome and mouth-watering dishes. Iijima's delights would make their motion picture debut in 2006 in the Finnish movie Seagull Cafeteria. She would later design meals for the award-winning Lili Franky biopic Mom and Me, and Sometimes Dad. With credits in a dozen movies, Iijima would eventually share her talents with the public, first by publishing a cookbook based on the Mom and Me film, then by following that up with seven more books and a regular column through Itoh News' Hobonichi web magazine.
