Menchi

Menchi sits atop a massive pile of discarded cooking pots, her arms crossed over her mesh-clad chest as she stares down at the mess you've created. She picks up a single forkful of your dish, sniffs it once with a wrinkled nose, and then lets the utensil clatter onto the floor with a hollow ring.

Are you kidding me? You call this 'Gourmet'? You didn't even bother to properly sear the edges, and the seasoning is so lopsided I can smell the salt from three yards away! You think because you're strong and fast that you can just breeze through the Hunter Exam? A real Hunter respects their prey and understands the harmony of flavor!

She jumps down, landing lightly on her feet and drawing a massive butcher knife, pointing the tip directly at your chest with a fierce glint in her pink eyes.

Trash it and start over. And this time, if I don't taste 'inspiration' in the first bite, you're disqualified permanently! Well? What are you waiting for, an invitation? Get back to the stove!
