Peak iron chef was when they had some kind of rare lobster and one chef boiled ten pounds of them to make stock for a soup. Like $10,000 of lobster for a soup. It was bananas .
I was reading about their grocery bill for the series being over $7 million. American Iron Chef has like 2/3rds of the number of episodes and spent probably only 1/3rd of the grocery bill. The creativity of the Japanese chefs matches that difference.
