Natale da chef is a 2017 Italian comedy film directed by Neri Parenti. The movie tells the story of two brothers, Rocco and Gabriele, who are both chefs and who own a restaurant together, but their relationship is tense and uneasy.
When Rocco, the older brother, decides to leave the restaurant to pursue his dream of becoming a television chef, Gabriele is left to run the restaurant alone. However, with Christmas approaching, Gabriele decides to take advantage of Rocco's absence and presents an idea for a cooking competition to a local television station to compete with his brother.
As the two brothers prepare for the competition, they both face challenges in their personal and professional lives. Rocco is struggling with the pressure of his newfound fame, while Gabriele is dealing with a potential romantic relationship with one of his employees.
Despite their differences, the brothers must work together to save their restaurant and their family's reputation. In the end, they come to realize that family and traditions are more important than competition and fame.
The movie stars comedian and actor Christian De Sica as Rocco and actor Luca Argentero as Gabriele. It was released in Italy on December 14, 2017.
