Editing Iron Chef (section)

==Notable dishes==
During the 2,000th Dish Battle, Chairman Kaga selected the five best and three worst dishes from the history of the show.<ref>{{cite episode|title=2000th Dish Special |series=Iron Chef |network=Fuji Television Network |year=1998}}</ref>

;Five best dishes
* [[Chili shrimp|Prawns in Chili Sauce]], Canapé Style (Iron Chef Chen Kenichi)
* [[Foie Gras]] and [[Flatfish]] with Citrus Sauce (Iron Chef Rokusaburo Michiba)
* Foie Gras and Scallops in [[Cabbage]] (Challenger Hiromi Yamada)
* Sea Eel Royale with [[Truffle]] Sauce (Iron Chef Hiroyuki Sakai)
* [[Scallop]] Salad with Vinaigrette Sauce (Challenger Maurice Guillouet)

;Three worst dishes
* Smoked Asparagus Stick Salad (Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto), the asparagus was so strongly smoked and bitter that all judges commented negatively.
* Potato Dumpling Soup (Iron Chef Komei Nakamura), the smell of foie gras killed the aroma of the potatoes and nobody was able to finish it. Both chefs in that match reached a no-decision, therefore the match was restarted.
* Soft Roe in Sake with Truffles (Challenger and commentator Yukio Hattori), gave [[Joël Robuchon]] the wrong impression of Japanese [[sake]].<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://imgur.com/gallery/UDhMj|title=If my memory serves me correctly...|work=Imgur|access-date=2017-08-28|language=en}}</ref>
