Ah, a bit of backstory on Teo this episode, as well as Nicoletta learning some hard, but funny, lessons about what it means to be a real restaurant chef.

And at the end Nicoletta and the Audience learn something unexpected about Teo.

So it was another fun episode, although I got the feeling that the character animation was a bit sketchier this episode than usual. (I bet that they're saving the animation budget for episode 11.)

For some reason, I really liked the episode, and I like Teo's character.
More than anything, I love how Nicoletta has changed throughout this anime, when was the last the time she was strung over some male?

I'm amazed how much I really enjoy every character in the restaurant, but when it comes down to Nicoletta...I just don't care. Ok episode, but I agree with the character designs being a little slack on execution.

Wow, Teo and his "mentor" eventually fell for one another. It's too bad we never get to see their tension turn into affection. Or maybe there was so much tension because of the affection, who knows?

By far one of my favourite episodes so far.

I like Teo's character. I'm glad we found out something about him as well.
Next episode seems interesting XD

I actually tend to agree, she feels a bit like a prop to the story.

I thoroughly enjoyed this episode. Watching Nicoletta struggle to prove herself was fun. I like how the males in the restaurant are finding these connections to Nicoletta and are able to relate to her (Claudio in the last episode and Teo in this one). I really like Teo's character as well, although if I were him i would have got mad when Nicoletta said she thought Vanna was a man. Haha.

Strangely I like way more the other characters of the restaurant than Nicoletta the main character. I never thought this would be the case.

I don't have patience for many female characters and Nicoletta is no exception. I also think she's incredibly nosy.

I like how Teo especially doesn't go easy on her.

Fantastic episode. Fantastic hunger.

I've come to really like Nicoletta over time, though I didn't at first. Such a cutie.

From the start of the episode I had suspected that Teo and Vanna had something between them, glad to see I was right
