Also, quick minor details to the ramen chef. Each new challenge dish she makes has an outcome. The hot as hell, sweaty. The steamy-as-hell, assault to the eyes. Tough-as-hell, chipped tooth. Messy-as-hell, sauce all over her.

I love that everyone actually loved the taste of the ramen, so the woman was genuinely talented at cooking, she was just too obsessed with the challenge to take advantage of that

Whenever I see a "super spicy ramen" chapter like this in a manga, I always think "Okay, but how spicy is this really?" The Japanese are quite famously very intolerant of spice. They think freaking wasabi is spicy.

Nano's flex on the "Jugemu Jugemu" ramen was even more impressive when you consider that Shizuka does memorize all her books, just to be able to talk. (Admittedly, she probably usually takes more time than a mere glance to do it.)
...though I can't believe I didn't realize earlier that Shizuka may have had less trouble memorizing the name of the dish and more trouble assembling it — she had to fall back to raw syllables to find "Jugemu" in her books.

(I've been running with the headcanon that, as varied as Shizuka's quotations get — from the high-flown fantasy novel descriptions and dialogue to stuff that sounds like it's from a yakuza story — it's all still from the Circlet Love Story series. And from this chapter, I'm adding the detail that the one talking like a Yakuza is Kamakuru's street-tough squire named "Gonzales".)

I'm confused though. Why did she gave up? With that kind of order and they keep coming, the place will make BANK and will probably be the biggest place in the area.
She wasn't making any money on the challenge orders, though. If you finished the challenge orders, you didn't have to pay for them. That was the setup.

Plus, at the beginning, she stated her motive for making impossible challenge meals was to make other people suffer the ignominy of defeat like she did, not the money.
