Challenging the Elite Ten.Episode Description:
In response to Elite Ten 8th seat Kuga's provocation at the Autumn Leaves Viewing, Soma decides to show off his cooking prowess in the upcoming Moon Festival, where groups or individuals set up food booths on school grounds. Deciding to go up against Kuga directly, Soma approaches Miyoko Hojo, who specialises in Chinese cuisine like Kuga. Miyoko explains that Kuga's focus is on Sichuan spicy cuisine, and takes Soma to Kuga's Chinese Cuisine Research Society. Soma is shocked to see many chefs working in perfect unison, all trained by Kuga himself. After tasting ten identical dishes of mapo tofu, Soma becomes more determined to beat Kuga. He claims the booth area directly in front of Kuga's, and decides to serve Chinese cuisine as well. As Soma submits his application form, Erina tells him that he will be expelled if his booth loses money.
