Yutaka Ishinabe - Memorable Battle

Memorable Battle

  • Jacques Borie, A French chef who works in L'osler in Tokyo, and is the only person to defeat Yutaka Ishinabe, doing so with only a single dish to Ishinabe's two. The theme ingredient was chicken. This was also notable as Chairman Kaga accidentally revealed the theme ingredient in his introductory speech, saying the word chicken instead of kitchen. He followed up on this error by declaring the theme ingredient to be kitchens before correcting himself. This was also the only of Ishinabe's battles that was shown in America when Food Network aired the original series.
