Culinary Cinema: 'John Wick: Chapter 4'

Overview

We're thinking he's back — and, if you're a fan of the John Wick flicks as everyone should be, we're thinking you're thrilled about your next night at the movies. John Wick: Chapter 4 sees Keanu Reeves bust out his on-screen assassin moves again in another action-packed onslaught. Beautiful in their balletic non-stop fight choreography, and also surprisingly heartwarming thanks to Reeves as the world's most committed dog owner, these films take the action genre to another level.

The only thing better than watching a new John Wick movie? Seeing it a day before it hits general release over a three-course menu inspired by the picture. That's what Village Cinemas is serving up around Melbourne from 7pm on Wednesday, March 22, complete with bites with Japanese, New York and French influences — all settings in the movie.

For $120, which includes your Gold Class ticket to the film, you'll start off karaage chicken with kewpie mayo and lime — washing it down with either a glass of sparkling wine or Kirin lager.

Next comes a New York pastrami sandwich on rye with chips and dill pickle, plus either a glass of red or white wine or Brooklyn lager. And then for dessert, tuck into profiteroles filled with ice cream and topped with chocolate fudge sauce, all while sipping either a French martini or an espresso martini.
