Hanasaki. -- San Francisco, CA : Viz Media, 2009. -- 257 p.
: ill. ; 21 cm. -- (Oishinbo, a la Carte) -- Summary (from
SkyRiver): Yamaoka and his father, Kaibara Y zan, have
never enjoyed an ideal father-son relationship. In fact,
it's about as far from ideal as possible, and when they
start arguing about food--which they inevitably do--the
sparks really fly. In this volume of Oishinbo the subject
of dispute is fish, starting with the question of whether
mackerel can ever be truly good sashimi. Later, things come
to a head during the "Salmon Battle," which pits father
against son in an epic contest to develop the best dish
before a panel of judges. Will Yamaoka finally defeat
Kaibara? Or will he once again be left in his father's
shadow?" -- Call no.: PN6790.J33H327 O41305 2009

-- "In this volume of Oishinbo, Yamaoka and company look
into the single most essential food in Japanese cuisine:
rice. Cultivated for millennia, a staple meal in itself and
the basis of countless other dishes, rice is an important
component not only of the Japanese kitchen but also of
Japanese culture. When Yamaoka is asked by Tozai's head
chef for help in coming up with a new rice dish, what
starts out as a simple culinary request rapidly grows into
a disquisition into the past, present and future of Japan's
food culture." -- Call no.: PN6790.J33H327 O413053 2009

the same vital space in the Japanese culinary landscape as
tapas bars in Spain or tavernas in Greece. Unpretentious,
frequently boisterous, they're places to meet with friends
or business partners to unwind over drinks and small dishes
that range from hearty standards to refined innovations. In
this volume of Oishinbo, Yamaoka and Kurita investigate
classic izakaya foods such as edamame and yakitori, devise
new dishes to add to the menu of an old shop, and discover
how the concept of 'play' is essential to the enjoyment of
food." -- Call no.: PN6790.J33H327 O413052 2010

as much passion and partisanship as the dish of noodles in
broth known as 'ramen.' Hot or cold, plain or miso, from
fancy fusion creations to humble roadside takeout, ramen is
truly a beloved food, one that can give rise to fierce
loyalty or fiercer criticism (not to mention the occasional
fistfight). In this volume of Oishinbo, Yamaoka and company
inquire into the 'soul of ramen,' from the flour used in
the noodles to the chickens used in the broth. And where
there's ramen, there's gyoza: little dumplings made with a
variety of fillings and served as a side dish. Will Yamaoka

different types of sake have played the same roles in Japan
as wine and beer have in the West, from inexpensive
everyday drink to refined single-batch rarities. Above all,
sake has been enjoyed as an accompaniment to a meal, and
after a revelatory moment one night, Yamaoka decides that
drink pairings must be an integral part of the Ultimate
Menu. So which foods go best with which drinks? Sit down,
pour yourself a glass, and read on!" -- Call no.:

Books, 2010. -- 64 p. : col. ill. ; 32 cm. -- (King of the
Flies ; 1) -- Translation of Le Roi des Mouches 1:
Hallorave. -- Summary (from publisher's website via
SkyRiver): "Set in a suburb that is both nowhere and
everywhere, King of the Flies is a glorious bastard,
combining the intricacy and subtlety of the best European
graphic novels with a hyperdetailed, controlled noir style
derived from the finest American cartoonists. Mezzo and
Pirus, previously best known in Europe for a series of
cynical, brutal gangster stories, have abandoned their guns
and gals for this cycle of suburban stories, but in King of
the Flies the violence has just (for the most part) been
interiorized. King of the Flies first appears to be a
series of unrelated short stories, each starring (and
narrated by) a different protagonist, but it soon becomes
obvious that these seemingly disparate episodes weave
together to form a single complex narrative, with events
that are only glimpsed (or even referred to) revisited from
different perspectives revolving around Eric, a
ne'er-do-well, drug-taking teenager at war with his
stepfather and, apparently, the whole world. (He is the
titular King.)" -- Alternative genre. -- Call no.:

"Collects together the entire eight issues". -- Summary
(from SkyRiver): Tumor is the story of Frank Armstrong, a
man at the boot heel of the world, barely scraping up a
living as a private investigator in modern day Los Angeles.
He finally lands a big case, finding the missing daughter
of a drug kingpin, just as he's taken by the symptoms of a
late-stage brain tumor. Memories blend with reality, as the
missing girl case starts to seep into the memory of his own
missing wife from 20 years prior. Now, with days, maybe
even hours, left to live, he must save this girl, while the
one thing he's relied on all of his life fails him - his
mind! -- Detective genre. -- Call no.: PN6727.T745T8 2010
