Sanshō

is the owner of the Curry of Life Shop. She has a son named Karashi. Little is known about Sanshō, only that she once saved Rock Lee's life by making a very spicy curry. Lee seems to enjoy the curry very much. After Lee arrived with Naruto and Guy's team, they went off to get Karashi back. Lee and the team wiped out the clan that kept Karashi and found him. Although he made a promise to come back to Sanshō it was an empty promise. After Raiga died, Karashi brought Ranmaru back to the shop. Now she tutors her son as well as taking care of Ranmaru.
