第 17 集: 唐人東山的婚禮引發其子與助手之間的烹飪競賽

17

Tōjin Tōyama, a national treasure and famous potter who taught Kaibara, marries the much younger Ryouko Suzumura. At the wedding, Tōyama asks Yamaoka to teach Ryouko how to cook. Kaibara disparages Yamaoka's culinary skills, and Tōyama proposes a contest between father and son to cook rice and miso soup. The contest takes place, with Tōyama's assistant Motomura preparing for Kaibara. Motomura's offerings are judged to be better and Kaibara explains the difference is the attention to detail and the hospitable heart that is part of the preparation. Yamaoka is devastated, and gives up betting on horse races, at least for a while. (Source: Wikipedia)
