I don't know that I'd call Miyazaki's movies "anime's best cooking scenes". There's an entire genre of manga/anime that's devoted to food that takes things way beyond any Miyazaki film. I like Yakitate!!

There's also things like Food Wars which is entirely dedicated to cooking/eating.
Very cool, I added this to my 'biohacker' list of links.
And lol @ your Egg Benedict Donburi from Food Wars. I still haven't started season 2... check out Dotchi No Ryouri, it used to run on PBS but can be found on youtube.
In an episode of the anime series "Food Wars", the main character basically does this at the restaurant he is assigned to internship at.
He and another chef student are assigned a local restaurant which is regularly and completely swamped by commuters; commuters flood the restaurant, everything is crowded, kitchen is over crazy, and then everyone evaporates to catch the next train home. Every day. Local eaters be damned. On the surface business is booming [daily rush of commuters!] but in reality there's a struggle.
Main character figures to go "reservation only". Walk-in commuters not allowed unless they have a reservation; no walk-by "I'll grab some sushi". Owners freak but are desperate... and things work out. A local comes in for his reservation and comments how he hasn't been able to come by for months because it's always so crowded, but he's oh so happy that the waitress remembers his regular order. Restaurant survives and within sanity.
