Mango pudding wins, 5-2

SMAP guy and Nakama Yukie go hungry.

I always thought the dessert battles were a bit underwhelming when compared to the sophistication required to execute a savory dish :sweat:

The lack of the climactic raw egg garnish? :beaten:

HAHA...maybe b/c they they don't serve the dessert with that inevitable cold mug of beer they whip out after they plate the food. :beaten:

In any event, any Dotch is good Dotch. I guess I don't have much of a sweet tooth.

Kind of hard to sneak in any crab guts too.

The indomitable "crab guts"...sounds so much nicer in Japanese when they say "Kani miso" :sweat:

Kind of felt sorry for Sekiguchi, after the second judging sitting there all by himself, you knew it was over. :puppydog:

But one things for sure, don't piss off those tuna fishermen. I thought they were going to string up the t.v. crew. :sweat:

Or at least use them as bait. :beaten: :hehe:

Looks like Ryoko Yonekura is on tonite's show, you might want to record this one (if you haven't already)

Yup, I recorded it ages ago when it first aired. :)

Thought it won't stop me from watching it again. :mrgreen:

And I would have lost again. Not a big fan of sweet potatoes.

Those sweet potatoes look more like regular potatoes than the ones here... They might be pretty good.

Tonight: Nabeyaki udon (pot cooked noodles) vs Yukkaejang (spicy beef soup)

They still air that program down there?
