Yomigaeru-ga-ii, Iron Chefs!: sole
The Featured Ingredient on tonight's episode of Iron Chef (Ryōri no tetsujin - 料理の鉄人, "Ironmen of Cooking") on SBS Television is ...
Sole
Once again I am pleased to report that the Featured Ingredient was dead, so it did not try to run away. Nor did we have to have a Reader Advisory at the start of the program warning viewers that scenes might be "distressing to some viewers".
I have also commented in previous posts on Iron Chef (Ryōri no tetsujin - 料理の鉄人, "Ironmen of Cooking") that Chairman Kaga is no Bert Newton. He might be a great actor but he is hopeless at improv. A sample.

Chairman Kaga (to Challenger): So you have heard about my show i n San Francisco? (where the Challenger works)
Challenger [waxes lyrical at great length about how the show is famous amongst all chefs great and small].
Chairman Kaga [after a pause, looks deep in thought]: Really?

Admittedly these are the sub-title renditions of the conversations. But ... really?
Unfortunately, no sooner have I got back into the Iron Chef (Ryōri no tetsujin - 料理の鉄人, "Ironmen of Cooking") habit that SBS announce that it is going off for a few weeks. Oh well.
