Yu Aoi plays the title character in the new drama series, "Osen", which is set in a traditional restaurant-inn located in Tokyo's shitamachi (downtown) area.Osen is the okami (mistress) of Isshoan, which may sound strange for someone so young, but her mother, Chiho (Saori Yuki), has retired and left the place in her charge.
Osen is a bit of a bird brain, and she likes to drink as well, but she's a natural when it comes to cooking, and each episode focuses on several dishes whose preparation is described in detail.
