Battles fought in this way could be for cooking utensils, research society facilities, council membership, or even expulsion from the school. Students can initiate a shokugeki (anime: food war), a cooking fight with stipulations on the line, with any other student or alumnus. The top student chefs occupy seats on the Council of Ten Masters, the highest governing body in the school aside from the school director. Totsuki also runs a chain of resort hotels, with the biggest being the Totsuki resort run by Gin Dojima, which is visited during Soma's first year at Totsuki.

Housing varies, but the most affordable is the Polaris Dormitory, where characters have to impress the dorm matron with a dish in order to secure residence. The campus is a wide-ranging resort with many research societies (clubs), cooking classrooms, and large arenas used for competitions. Its students mostly come from Totsuki's junior high school, but transfers are taken provided they pass the entrance exam. The series is set mainly at Totsuki Saryo Culinary Institute, an elite culinary school located in Tokyo, Japan, which only a handful of students graduate from each year.
