Shhh… Listen To The Gods. The Japanese believe the gods live in all things. Trees, appliances, animals, buildings—they all have a spirit living within them. Maybe, if you listen carefully, you can hear them too. It sits there on the counter, quiet and contemplative. Who knew rice cookers could be so vengeful? Ryu must decide whether to stay or leave The Chef’s kitchen, so he turns to an unlikely ally for help.
