An Endless Wasteland.Episode Description:
Soma Yukihira has been working at his father Joichiro's diner since a young age, establishing an interest in cooking and vowing to beat his father in a cooking battle someday. One day while Joichiro is away, Yaeko Minegasaki, an urban life planner, arrives and threatens to demolish the restaurant. Yaeko orders Soma to make her a tasty meat dish, promising to never disturb him again should the dish satisfy her. Soma uses potatoes and the bacon he bought while shopping to create an imitation roast pork dish. Yaeko enjoys the dish, and fulfills her portion of the deal. Despite the restaurant being saved, Joichiro decides to close it down for three years, opting to travel (and cook) abroad. He sends Soma to take the entrance exam to the prestigious Totsuki Culinary Academy.
