The best selling and most beloved food manga of all time!As part of the celebrations for its 100th anniversary, the publishers of the Tozai News have commissioned the creation of the 'Ultimate Menu,' a model meal embodying the pinnacle of Japanese cuisine. This allimportant task has been entrusted to journalist Yamaoka Shiro, an inveterate cynic who possesses no initiativebut also an incredibly refined palate and an encyclopedic knowledge of food.Yamaoka and his father, Kaibara Yuzan, have never enjoyed an ideal fatherson relationship. In fact, it's about as far from ideal as possible, and when they start arguing about foodwhich they inevitably dothe sparks really fly. In this volume of Oishinbo the subject of dispute is fish, starting with the question of whether mackerel can ever be truly good sashimi. Later, things come to a head during the 'Salmon Match,' which pits father against son in an epic contest to develop the best dish before a panel of judges. Will Yamaoka finally defeat Kaibara? Or will he once again be left in his father's shadow?
