--Owen and the Sushi Chef

The Sushi Chef is a minor character in The Amazing Race.

History
While in Beijing, Owen is walking around looking for free food. He asks the Sushi Chef what he has that's free. He doesn't respond however, as Owen quickly reacts when he sees the wasabi, mistaking it for pistachio ice cream. He asks for some, and the Chef gives him a small morsel, but Owen asks for more and more, until the Chef finally gives him a very large scoop. Owen then tries the wasabi, and burns his mouth badly.

Relationships
According to Laurie Elliot, the Chef has a girlfriend.
