Ép. 106: Le chef Terasugi retrouve son ancien amour Sabine après dix ans de séparation.

106

A German luxury cruise line hosts a dinner prepared by head chef Yoshio Terasugi on board their ship for Touzai News staff. Terasugi explains to Yamaoka and Kurita that many years ago he began training in the German restaurant Hansa in Yokohama under the German chef and owner, Ernest Muhler. Terasugi became chef and was engaged to Muhler's daughter Sabine, but a hoodlum who knew of Terasugi's past as a juvenile delinquent blackmailed him. They fought and the hoodlum died, leading to Terasugi spending 10 years in jail. On his release, he travelled to Germany to study cooking, and he asks Yamaoka and Kurita to see if Hansa still exists. They report that it does, with Sabine now the owner and chef but the food lacks spirit and does not include two special items that Terasugi cooked, mushroom soup and potato pancake. Yamaoka decides to write an article about German food and invites Terasugi to meet him at Hansa. Sabine explains that she removed the two items because they reminded her of Terasugi and that she has been waiting for him to return before cooking them again. Thanks to Yamaoka's manipulation, Sabine and Yoshio are happily reunited. (Source: Wikipedia)
