Bambino

,

I realize it's an older drama, but Bambino is a good one, that touched close to home. The story revolves around Ban (伴), a wannabe chef who goes from a small Fukuoka Italian restaurant to a super-popular one in Roppongi, Tokyo.

The story follows his hardships, and his struggle to become a good chef. Great story, plays out like a manga, wouldn't be surprised if that's where it's from.

Anyway, it might come in handy if you want to learn some new words relating to restaurants, especially speaking to the customer.

Of course you can also refer to this page to learn a lot of other restaurant-related words, but here are a few more phrases from the show.
