Ép. 46: Le trio Touzai visite un marché aux poissons et Yamaoka remporte un concours de cuisine avec des ingrédients modestes.

46

After watching the Dragon Lee movie, the Touzai trio goes the Lei Yue Mun fishmarket. Just outside the market Tomii notices two refugee children trying to sell their catch. He feels sorry for them and buys an entire bucket of crabs. Yamaoka asks the children to find nuoc mam sauce for him. That evening the competition starts. The first two dishes are based around swallow's nest and shark fin soup and are adjudicated as a draw. The main ingredient in the third dish is an expensive fish called Humpback grouper. However, Yō had bought all the high-quality large fishes on the market. Yamaoka remembers a Japanese dish using a related fish called Ara. He prepares a dish using only the eyes and lips of the fish and the authentic Vietnamese nuoc mam, provided by the children, as a dipping sauce. The dish goes so well down among the yacht club members that Yō concedes the competition and says he shouldn't have allowed the Japanese to compete. Fuyumoto apologizes to Mr. En for his rudeness the previous evening. Back in Tokyo, the office ladies are unimpressed when Tomii and Yamaoka try to reenact Kung-fu fights from the movie.
