This all-important task has been entrusted to journalist Yamaoka Shirō, an inveterate cynic who possesses no initiative--but also an incredibly refined palate and an encyclopedic knowledge of food.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYamaoka and his father, Kaibara Yūzan, have never enjoyed an ideal father-son relationship. In fact, it's about as far from ideal as possible, and when they start arguing about food--which they inevitably do--the sparks really fly. In this volume of \u003ci\u003eOishinbo\u003c\/i\u003e 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?","brand":"VIZ Media LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43412892090623,"sku":"9781421521428","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/Jacket_1a5251e5-21df-4c89-9600-8399d20a4353.jpg?v=1758827719","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781421521428","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
