Food Wars! Shokugeki no Soma - Season 0 Episode 2 Takumi's Downtown Battle
This episode takes place sometime between the first season. The Aldini brothers head out for a trip to a tall skyscraper, where other students such as Alice, Ryo, and the boys from Polar Star Dormitory with the exception of Sōma are visiting too. There, they bump into Megumi, Ryoko, and Yoshino, the girls from Polar Star Dormitory and have lunch together at a traditional Japanese restaurant. When Isami requests for cheese with his rice, an old man scoffs at the Aldini brothers for not respecting Japanese culture, and Takumi requests a food battle with him. The former's food, although nostalgic, is lacking in skill compared to the Aldini brothers', and he confesses that Takumi reminded him of his daughter's fiancé, a blonde-haired foreigner, whom he objected strictly against her marrying. After a long day, the brothers return home.
