Burnt ending explained
In the movie Burnt, Adam Jones is a skilled chef who worked at a prestigious restaurant in Paris and earned two Michelin stars, a big deal in the restaurant world. His goal was to get the elusive third Michelin star, the highest honor. However, his drug and alcohol problems caused chaos, and many people lost their jobs because of him. After a period of self-exile, Adam comes to London determined to reclaim his culinary glory.
He convinces Tony, the restaurant manager from his old Paris restaurant, to let him work in the kitchen of Tony’s new restaurant in London. Michel, a former colleague from Paris, also joins, even though there’s some tension between them due to past issues.
The movie shows Adam running the kitchen with strict authority, demanding perfection from his team as they await the arrival of Michelin reviewers, who come secretly but exhibit recognizable behaviors. One day, two men exhibit these behaviors, and it seems like the Michelin reviewers have arrived. Despite being physically beaten earlier, Adam decides to lead the kitchen.
However, this turns out to be a disaster as Michel deliberately ruins a sauce with pepper out of revenge. Adam believes all is lost, leaves the restaurant, and gets drunk for the first time in years. Later, Tony reveals that the two men were not actual Michelin reviewers, giving Adam another chance.
With Michel out of the picture, Adam changes his leadership style, becoming more gentle. Towards the end of the movie, real Michelin reviewers finally arrive, and Adam trusts his team to cook as they always have, a sign of his confidence in their abilities. The exchanged glances between Adam and Tony in the ending scene suggest success: they have achieved the coveted third Michelin star. The movie ends with the kitchen team celebrating with a “family meal,” symbolizing the new way Adam leads the team.
