The main character, Kaneichiro Yamagata, is a writer who is angry by the frivolous values of the Japanese people and uses his pen to reform society.
Although he is constantly pressed by deadlines, he
is also the ultimate hobbyist who values the time spent drinking and eating, and pursues truly delicious food with a unique commitment.
Fascinated by his personality and cooking, there is no end to the number of people who visit his room in the cheap apartment where he works.
