I know nothing beats Tampopo as far as food porn goes, but I still look forward to watching films about culinary with similar bizarre touch and lighthearted, hilarious undertone.

shareIt's not the same film style, but Eat Drink, Man Woman is heartwarmingly good, and it also, sort-of, revolves around food.
shareIn a very loose way, Delicatessen is also in the same style/genre, and has a similar wacky, fun style.

For some reason, Tampopo strikes me as being in some ways reminiscent of late Bunuel, particularly The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie (albeit without the direct social commentary) and The Phantom of Liberty (the way that the different stories are linked).
shareI haven't seen those but will have to check them out! Thanks Balok!
shareBig Night with Stanley Tucci and Tony Shaloub is a MUST SEE. Very similar to Tampopo: the love of food, life and the people around you.

Well, Tampopo is clearly the inspiration for the film Ramen Girl. Worth a watch.
