I LOVE KUITAN!!!!
Kuitan - The gluttonous detective. (Detective with a bottomless-pit stomach)
Starring: Higashiyama Noriyuki (as Kuitan) and Morita Go (as Ryosuke). [Higashiyama is the guy who always starts the Andalucia song during the Countdown concerts. Jyannis Senpai!]
Genre: Comedy, mystery and lots and lots of food with a sprinkle of romance. <3
***Warning: Do eat before or during the drama. Trust me, watching the drama on an empty stomach is not recommended!***
[Oh, I think it doesn't matter if you skip some of the episodes. Each episode can stand on its own just fine. ^_^]
Anyway, oh my goodness! The amount of food in this drama is amazing! And they all look so freaking good!!! Makes you want to go to Japan just to eat what they eat ne... Laughter + Food = Good combo. I've never watched Higashiyama act before, so I was actually quite surprised that he is actually good looking. Ho...ho...ho... Now, now, during the Countdown concerts, his face was never really focused for too long for me to notice ne. Anyway, he has good chemistry with Go who plays Ryosuke - the know-it-all! All those random info he sputtered out made me say, 'Oh... So desu ne...' >Thank goodness for the English softsubs!< And Go looks mecha kakkoii when he rode the motorcycle!

Anyway, is it just me or are there hints of HigashiyamaxGo rabu rabu in the drama to sweeten up the series? Hmm...
