Which episode of The Bear's final season has the summary 'A seating chart'?

The story behind the answer

“Focaccia” is the episode of The Bear’s final season whose summary is “A seating chart.” It is Season 5, Episode 6, placing it in the late-season run just before “Caramel.”

The title follows The Bear’s established habit of naming episodes after foods, ingredients or culinary ideas. Focaccia is an Italian yeasted flatbread, typically made with olive oil and often finished with salt, herbs or other toppings. Its name is therefore culinary rather than a reference to a character or location.

The neighboring titles make this question especially easy to confuse. “Lamb” is Season 5, Episode 2; “Raspberries” is Episode 5; and “Caramel” is Episode 7. The phrase “A seating chart” describes the episode’s short official synopsis, not its title. In a restaurant drama, that wording also carries a double meaning: seating arrangements affect service, but they can also expose shifting relationships among the staff, guests and extended family.
