GUNDAM SQUARE’s new menu “Head Chef Tamura’s Whimsical Pilot Lunch!”
A rendition of the well-known scene “Lack of salt will affect the crew!”
A menu based on Head Chef Tamura’s cooking, whose skills were exhibited onboard the space battleship White Base in Mobile Suit Gundam, called “Head Chef Tamura’s Whimsical Pilot Lunch” has begun being offered at Osaka’s GUNDAM SQUARE since June 13th (Tues). It is 1,000 yen excluding tax.
Head Chef Tamura is a renowned chef solely responsible for the meals of the soldiers and civilians onboard the battleship White Base. When the ship falls into severe food shortage after coming under attack in battle, Tamura persuades Captain Bright of the importance of salt, especially the fact that there is a lack of it. He is a wonderful supporting character whose line, “Lack of salt will affect the crew!”, has been imprinted in the memories of fans.

■ Lunch will include a “lack of salt” act!
Inspired by the One Year War from Mobile Suit Gundam, the food’s theme will be that it “changes based on the state of the day’s food supply affected by the war.” Furthermore, with the well-known “lack of salt” scene, a representation of Chef Tamura, in mind, a portion of the food served will not be salted enough and will include an act. During the offered period, customers who do not have enough salt in their food will be asked if they would like to add more salt; it is a dish where you can enjoy the seasoning to your tastes.
■ Staff will say fully realistic lines to you!
Staff will act out lines that resemble those from Gundam so that customers can have fun with the new menu. These include lines such as “We don’t know when it’ll become war, so please eat well while you can,” “Your meal is the same portion as a regular pilot’s meal on Captain Bright’s orders,” and “If it’s not salty enough, contact Captain Bright and we will come right away to supply more salt!”
