Episode Title:
That Chef Never Smiles.Episode Description:
At the entrance ceremony, Soma is introduced as the only student who managed to transfer into Totsuki's high school division. He declares that he will become the top student at Totsuki, instantly earning the ire of the entire student body. In his first class, he is paired with the meek Megumi Tadokoro, who has the worst grades among the first-years and is one E grade away from expulsion. The class consists of making Beef Bourguignon for the notoriously strict French teacher Roland Chapelle, also known as "The Chef that Never Smiles." Megumi is determined to earn a passing grade, but encounters a setback when two other students sabotage the dish by adding too much salt. Luckily, Soma is able to make the dish again, using honey to quickly tenderize the meat. The class is astonished when Chapelle smiles once he tries Soma and Megumi's dish, and proclaims that he wishes he could give them a grade higher than an A. The two saboteurs, distracted by Chapelle's smiling, accidentally ruin their own dish, and receive a failing grade. Meanwhile, Erina is told of Soma's success in Chapelle's class and furiously vows to get him expelled.
