Ep. 98: Tayama desafia Kurita e Yamaoka a provar sua expertise culinária no Hotel Dainichi.

A college friend asks Kurita to host her wedding reception. Her co-host is Soichi Tayama, who comes from a wealthy family but denies his reputation as playboy. Tayama is smitten with Kurita and invites her to his father's Dainichi Hotel restaurant featuring a French chef and his cuisine. Later, Yamaoka and Kurita are sent there to evaluate the restaurant for Touzai News and Tayama joins them with the food critic Takehara. Takehara asserts that Yamaoka and Kurita are too young to develop the Ultimate Menu as that it takes a family three generations to appreciate good food. However, it is a ploy by Tayama to demoralize Kurita. Yamaoka and Kurita correctly identify five different raw meats, and then find no difference in two complex sauces which were mixed up by the kitchen staff so they each had plates with the same sauce. Takehara apologizes for his rudeness. The next day Tayama brings Kurita flowers and asks her to dinner again, but she declines. (Source: Wikipedia)
