Character

Kojirou Shinomiya

四宮 小次郎

Owner of a French cuisine restaurant called Shino's, Kojirou was a student of the 79th generation and held the first seat of the Elite Ten. He is commonly seen sporting glasses and red hair. Known as the "Legumes Magician", Kojirou was convinced he was going to be successful in France with his French–Japanese fusion restaurant, Shino's. However, his French staff refused to follow his recipes, even sabotaging his dishes. Facing financial ruin, he hardened himself emotionally and fired anyone who questioned his skills in the kitchen. Although this allowed him to reach the top, his proud and stubborn refusal to make exceptions resulted in his skills stagnating over the years.
