第33話: クリタとヤマオカがミヨコのために夫への家庭料理の調理を手伝う

33

As payday approaches, Touzai staff begin eating more often in the staff canteen. Kurita's old college friend, Miyoko Kasada, says that she is divorcing her husband of 3 months because she believes he is seeing another woman. Kurita buys Yamaoka dinner so he will help follow Miyoko's husband after work. They follow him to a "mother's style" eatery where he spends 3 hours before heading home, which he apparently does every day after work. Yamaoka and Kurita visit Miyoko and she offers them her food, all learned from cookbooks and heated in the microwave. Yamaoka explains that he husband prefers home-style cooking, and does not like her exotic meals. He teaches Miyoko how to make a simple home-cooked meal, uzume-meshi (うずめ飯), from fresh ingredients and her husband begins coming home early every evening to eat her meals. (Source: Wikipedia)
