They have the head chef from Tour D'Argent Tokyo (Tour D'Argent in Paris was founded in 1582) going against Chef Chen, who's not ever really used foie gras.

They have duck foie gras from France and Goose foie gras from Hungary.

It was the 300th episode, so they went all out. They probably 30 or 40 livers available on the reveal table, and all the Iron Chefs are watching the show and offering some commentary as well.

3. I hear ya... and find a way to make it affordable.
Though if it were affordable, I'll kill myself by eating too much of it.

6. No, this one was in their regular kitchen.
Did they do one in a big arena?

I've seen nowhere near all of them, so I'd love to see a big arena battle!

8. Yeah, once.
It was some big event, I don't remember if it was the final episode or what.

I only remember that one and the one where Iron Chef Japan called the food critic a bitch.

7. EVERY Sunday we watch that show and EVERY Sunday
my husband falls asleep when the judging starts.
It's like clockwork.

Why does everyone always want to battle Flay? I hate his eyebrows.
