Given that Souma's set-up as a character already establishes him as highly skilled, even if unorthodox, it makes sense that he's a class above characters who don't even get names to themselves.

Impressing the grandfather is probably relative. His smile seems more to me that he's confirming his hunch that his arrogant granddaughter couldn't admit she's been challenged. It doesn't mean he's giving Souma his approval yet.
My problem is that, one whole volume in, Souma's still breezing through it all. We've never even seen Erina cook. What exactly is his challenge at the school supposed to be if even the strictest teacher looks like a pushover to him? His dominance has to be tempered somehow soon before it gets boring.
