WOW. This has got to be one of the most underrated j-doramas around. I first wanted to see this drama because of the food. But it was more. Its really amusing and quite funny. I love how they connect the mysteries to food and analyze food. Being a foodie and a cook, it has made me appreciate food much more!

The acting was really good. Kuitan is acted out by Higashiyama Noriyuki. I had no idea who he was until I finished Kuitan Special (which was amazing and filmed in HONGKONG) and Kuitan 2. I looked him up and he is one of Johnny's entertainment's seniors. AWESOME. He sings and dances well too for the end song of Kuitan 2.

The music in Kuitan 1 was good, mostly classical music which was okay but in Kuitan 2, they made their group 'Trio The Shakinnn' (gotta love the name!!!) which has Higashiyama Noriyuki, Morita Go of v6 (and rumored husband of Ueto Aya--of attention pls drama) and the young actor in Kuitan. Their song was soo cute! They even performed it in Johnny's concerts and the fans would go NUTS/WILD! Haha. Fun, fun!

Overall, if you love food and mysteries, watch Kuitan. Personally, I liked Kuitan special and the humor of Kuitan 2 even more :-). Ah, as other people who have seen and commented about the drama in other sites, you will never look at food the same way again. Respect is what you will see for food!!
