Post right above this gave most a somewhat thorough synopsis of this drama but like all the other posts after this will just be giving a brief recap of each episode and many screenshots of the incredibly cute Miori as Chie in this series.
This will probably be the shortest recap as most of the details is in the above post, what really happens in this first episode is that we meet most of the main characters especially Eisuke who is the owner and chef of a new French restaurant. He's a failed bass player from the band Rock Head and he had decided if he couldn't become a star by the time he was 30 he would quit the band and go back to being a chef, he's about a month away from that age. Things haven't started out well for the restaurant as it's located in a hard to find place and his fellow rockers who have joined him at the restaurant aren't the nicest looking guys nor do they act well at all to others. Eisuke also has a girlfriend and their relationship here is rocky and will continue to be for a while, really have no idea if by the end of the series they will still be together or whether there will be a new girl in Eisuke's life.
And that girl is college student Chie from whom Eisuke buys his vegetables from, she ate at this restaurant and fell totally in love with his cooking and it looks like also with him though she considers him to be such a rude person. That's about all that needs to be said about this first episode, actually made the recap longer than planned, don't want to give away all the story which I'll try not to do but there are so many "little things" going on would be impossible to give away everything. Main reason I started on this of course was Miori who really is something in this drama, quite funny and charismatic, she's not the only reason to watch this drama but perhaps the main one if you're a fan and at this blog we're huge ones, going to end off every post for this series with many screenshots of her from the episode.
