Week 2: Kyoko

Overview

Host Kyoko divides the group when she puts on a traditional Japanese menu. The kimono clad guests are a little scared when Kyoko greets them with a board breaking karate demonstration. But it’s nothing like the shock BBQ loving Jesse and Sharon have when confronted with dried squid and seaweed dishes. David and Jane can’t get enough of Kyoko’s exotic dishes and David declares her traditional food faultless. Being squeezed into a tiny dinner table has Jesse saying he feels like an elephant on a penny farthing bicycle and the too close closeness makes David feel he’s on a family holiday in a caravan. Jesse has a clash with David about wine knowledge but it’s the sake that Jesse hates; “you can have it warm, you can have it cold, it’s crap.” Only the scores will tell if Kyoko has been too adventurous with her menu.
