76화: 오하라와 야마오카는 쫄깃한 음식으로 함께 식사하며 문화적 차이를 좁힌다.

76

Ohara secures a business partnership with President Shovan of the french news organization Le Tanne, but during the celebratory dinner they argue about the flavors of Japanese versus French food and the deal is almost broken. Yamaoka is tasked with organizing the next dinner and chooses Mr Chu's Chinese restaurant. The evening goes well until the end when the two company presidents disagree over the strong smells of fermented cheese and fish. Chu then introduces a strong smelling tofu and both executives baulk at the smell. After tasting these foods in which microbes have dissolved the proteins they accept their cultural differences. Yamaoka then introduces the strong smelling funazushi and they all travel to a factory where it is made by fermenting fish which has been stuffed with rice and salted. All agree that the smell is pungent, however when it is eaten with rice and hot tea, they enjoy the taste and congratulate Yamaoka on his diplomatic choice of food. (Source: Wikipeida)
