Yeah, pretty much this. Alice actually interacts with the cast and has a fun time.

From the flashback we saw very briefly from a previous chapter, it looks like Alice found him while she was abroad in Europe.

He's from northern Europe. Presumably one of the Scandinavian countries.

Even though they keep talking up how amazing the academy is, most of the students are likely related to alumni. It doesn't even seem to be well-known overseas. In the end, it is just a japanese trade school. So, why would anyone who didn't already speak the language bother to attend? Oh, but was that indian guy half-japanese?

Until they say outright that Japanese cooking is the true and best cooking I don't think we can say this manga is too nationalistic.

The current best cook in the manga is someone who specifically incorporates techniques from all over the world, so I don't think they'll go that route.

Just about all of the dishes in contests are either japanese cuisine or foreign cuisine with a japanese twist. Even that Chaliapin (translated as Shalyapin in the manga) steak from early on was actually a japanese recipe. However, all of the judges have also been japanese (because they are in japan). What's wrong with trying to appeal to the judges?

Yeah, this discussion puts me in mind of an old Iron Chef episode where the Iron Chef went up against a French chef, in France. The two French judges awarded higher points to the French chef's dishes, and the two Japanese judges awarded higher points to the Japanese chef's dishes. I suppose you could chalk that up to national pride or whatever, but I'd be willing to accept the outcome as a matter of personal taste. It seems reasonable that you'd try and play to the judges' preferences here too. I personally think that's gaming the system a bit, but it's not like you can measure taste objectively, so why not? None of the characters seem to think it's bad, anyway.

Punk Megumi. "This is flavour violence." "Eating food is a fist fight." I think I have finally fallen in love with this manga. Sonata Mused posted:I want Megumi to make a dish that makes her punk. Yes please.

For the love of god scanlators, it's called bouillabaise. Otherwise pretty intense chapter.

On further research, the recipe was probably Setois Fish Soup. I was initially thinking it was a bouillabaisse due to the commonality of fish used in the Daishi and the presentation with rusks, as "soupe de poisson" is literally fish soup and pretty ambiguous.

Personally I thought there was something magical with the name being so utterly generic. "This... is my masterpiece! BEHOLD! FISH SOUP!"

You can make anything sound magical by Frenching it up. I really like how this part of the tournament arc has been going so far. Megumi and Soma, both bringing their A-game.

http://www.batoto.net/read/_/246285/shokugeki-no-soma_ch71_by_casanova Chapter 71 is up! Feels like it's gonna be a close battle. Also this chapter proves that the author can outdo himself in making ridiculous spreads that don't need to be fanservice. Compendium fucked around with this message at 02:28 on May 25, 2014 |

Oh my god, that was the best. The author's definition of fanservice is becoming increasingly specific, in a great way I can't wait for the Attack on Titan homage.
