Lunch break. Chinese bento from a recently opened bento shop is popular in Wakako's (Takeda Rina) office. Newcomer Kuramoto (Niwa Norimoto) has been coming for three days in a row. Eating her homemade bento, Wakako listens to the conversation of Chief Okada (Shiotsuka Kohei) and others, and her mind is completely filled with Chinese food. On her way home from work, Wakako spots a sign for a Chinese home-cooking restaurant and decides to go in. The customer next to her is eating delicious-looking dumplings with wings. Suppressing her excitement, she orders pickled mustard greens and enjoys the fizz with Shaoxing wine and soda.
The next day, despite having gone in for a Chinese meal, Wakako goes to buy a Chinese bento, but Chief Okada and his team get there first, and it's sold out, so she can't buy one. Chief Okada feels sorry for her and asks her for some recommended restaurants in Takadanobaba...
