Sakai&#8217;s caviar battle had a theme ingredient that cost $1500 a can. Chen takes on the first challenger with a specialty in Thai cuisine. The ICC Exclusives battle this week features an Australian challenger. We had seen her for years during the FN intro, but it wasn&#8217;t until late last year that we had seen her battle. The asparagus battle features one of the worst dishes ever presented on Iron Chef. And finally, Sakai takes on a 2-star French chef who trained under Joel Robuchon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week in Iron Chef history, May 10 &#8211; May 16. 218 (5\/13\/1994) &#8211; Bonito &#8211; Sakai vs. Hiromi Funatsu 319 (5\/12\/1995) &#8211; Caviar &#8211; Sakai vs. Isao Yanigadate 420 (5\/10\/1996) &#8211; Pineapple &#8211; Chen vs. Shunji Morikawa 518OA (5\/16\/1997) &#8211; Ostrich &#8211; Nakamura vs. Gillian Hirst 616 (5\/15\/1998) &#8211; Asparagus &#8211; Morimoto vs. Yasuhiko [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[8],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/ironcheffans.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/506"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/ironcheffans.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/ironcheffans.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/ironcheffans.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/ironcheffans.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=506"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"http:\/\/ironcheffans.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/506\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":515,"href":"http:\/\/ironcheffans.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/506\/revisions\/515"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/ironcheffans.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=506"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/ironcheffans.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=506"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/ironcheffans.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=506"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
