Hollywood actor Keanu Reeves has been honing his culinary skills and is considering taking a break from his movie career to focus on cooking.

The "Private Lives of Pippa Lee" actor has also been inspired by the book "Molecular Gastronomy: Exploring the Science of Flavor" by French TV chef and chemist Herve This. 

"I am dabbling in cooking and looking at becoming a chef. Herve is fantastic. I didn't really cook before but this book may be changing my life," said the actor.
