The two chefs are tasked with creating a dish that represents the spirit of Japan, and they only have one hour to do so. Liu decides to make a traditional Japanese dish called "oden," which consists of boiled eggs, daikon radish, fish cakes, and other ingredients. Yuki, on the other hand, creates a more modern dish that uses Japanese ingredients but is presented in a Western-style.
As the competition progresses, Liu and Yuki engage in a friendly rivalry and exchange tips and tricks. However, there is something strange about Yuki that Liu can't quite put his finger on. He seems to have an almost supernatural talent for cooking, and Liu suspects that he might be using some kind of secret ingredient or technique.
