説明 | CAMP ITAMI, Japan - Some of the finest cooks from U.S. Army’s I Corps and the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force Middle Army chopped, stirred, fried and baked their way through Yama Sakura’s Iron Chef competition conducted Dec. 5, 2015, at Camp Itami, Japan. The friendly competition comprised two teams (one American, one Japanese) each given two hours to prepare and present a four course meal to senior leaders from the U.S. Army and JGSDF participating in Yama Sakura 69, one of the largest bilateral command post exercises in the Pacific. A panel of 10 judges that included Army Lt. Gen. Stephen R. Lanza, commanding general, I Corps, JGSDF Lt. Gen. Junji Suzuki, commanding general, JGSDF Middle Army, and Army Maj. Gen. James F. Pasquarette, commanding general, U.S. Army Japan, graded each team’s meal on three 10-point scales based on taste, presentation and creativity. The American team placed in front of each judge a garden salad, sushi, baked potato, shrimp, ribeye steak and frozen custard. After several minutes of commentary between mouthwatering chews, the Soldiers cleared the table to make way for their Japanese allies to present a traditional Japanese cuisine complete with jellied fish, Miso soup, mixed vegetables, sweet buns and an assortment of fried meats. Team USA took home the winning plaque—a cutting board engraved with the YS 69 emblem—after the judges revealed their total score of 483-478. Every contestant received a certificate as well as a commemorative coin from Lanza. Both teams look forward to a rematch in 2016. U.S. Army Photo by Sgt. John L. Carkeet IV, U.S. Army Japan |
