Dizzy Dishes is an animated cartoon created by Fleischer Studios in 1930, as part of the Talkartoon series.
Plot
The cartoon begins with four
Anthropomorphism flapper cats singing "Crazy Town". Chef Bimbo waits on a hungry
gorilla and then goes to the kitchen to prepare the order, roast duck. When he is about to bring it to the gorilla's table, he sees a female French
poodle (
Betty Boop) performing on stage and falls in love at first sight. He forgets about the hungry gorilla and dances on stage with the duck. The gorilla, furious, goes after Bimbo, who escapes on a wooden train.
Notes
The as-yet-unevolved Betty Boop is drawn as an
Anthropomorphism female dog. She is merely a side character; the main plotline revolves around the incompetent chef Bimbo and the irate gorilla. "Crazy Town", sung by the flapper cats in the beginning of the cartoon, is also the theme song for the 1932 film
Crazy Town.
