"Babette's Banquet" has a concentrated and group-like presentation of the characteristics of Christian Lutherans, who are simple, poor, ascetic, and devout, which are reflected in the fact that they eat hard to swallow day after day. The food is more reflected in the priest's two beautiful daughters with clear voices who sacrificed their love between men and women for their religious beliefs.

And all these peaceful lives that have been maintained for many years are caused by a French meal. After all, food is the most fundamental and important gift of God. During the staggering, the members of the gathering changed from resistance at first to indulgent enjoyment that could not be concealed. This kind of feeling is not only the satisfaction of the appetite, but also the spiritual joy that penetrates the human heart. It flows between each other, making people gradually open their hearts and become harmonious and warm.

Babette's Feast quotes

  • General Lorens Löwenhielm: This is Blinis Demidoff! And this most certainly is Veuve Clicquot 1860!

  • General Lorens Löwenhielm: One day in Paris, after I'd won a riding competition, some French officers invited me out to dine at one of the city's finest restaurants, the Café Anglais. The chef, surprisingly enough, was a woman. We were served cailles en sarcophage, a dish of her own creation. General Galliffet, our host for the evening, explained that this woman, this head chef, had the ability to transform a dinner into a kind of love affair, a love affair that made no distinction between bodily appetite and spiritual appetite.
