In this humorous paean to the joys of food, a pair of truck drivers happen onto a decrepit roadside shop selling ramen noodles. The widowed owner, Tampopo, begs them to help her turn her establishment into a paragon of the "art of noodle-soup making". Interspersed are satirical vignettes about the importance of food to different aspects of human life.

"strange little flick. hypnotizing flow, i like how everything was interwoven. tampopo herself grounded the film with her desperate smiley close-ups. it was an excruciating watch as a germaphobe but i appreciate the overall silliness w life lessons tied in, it gave me a new perspective on food’s connection to life.
