Overall promising, but very slow moving plot.

Since this is the Adaption of a Light novel it will be treated as an unwanted step child, like every Manga version for Light novels. If you don't like waiting 3-4 Months for Updates that might never come you shouldn't read this.

But what is it about?

The son of an Restaurant owner dies in the stupidest way possible since Kazuma. He ran into a burning building to save a knife.


But that's actually not so bad, since he now has a knife in the isekai world. Getting saved by an absolutely stunning Woman, he quickly learns that her society hasn't ... evolved much from cavemen. They have fire and tools, there is a town nearby, but they somehow don't even know the basics about disecting Animals. They don't know about bloodletting and they only eat small parts of the "Giba" (Somewhat bigger and stronger boars) while throwing the rest away.

They don't know how to cook and our chef to be is going to educate them.


As for the Art, it's clearly above average.

The characters have as much depth as you would guess from a hunter and gatherer society. But it's fine.

I give it a 7/10 because of the art and the rather unusual story.

1 Bonuspoint for having an Isekai without game interface for the protagonist only.

Tldr: FOOD. ITS COOL. GET SOME SKILLS AND YOU'LL GET SOME BITCHES

I don't know where this idea started, but I've been loving the recent focus on life skills in isikai and manga in general. From economics in Spice & Wolf to FOOD. ITS GOOD.

Isekai Ryouridou is a manga that centers around the world of food and cooking, which makes it stand out among other isekai manga. The story follows the journey of a young man named Takumi, who is transported to a fantasy world and uses his cooking skills to survive and thrive in this new environment. The manga's core focus on food is ... unique and refreshing, as it offers readers a glimpse into the world of culinary arts.

One of the manga's strengths is the way it presents cooking as a skill that is both valuable and admirable, showcasing how it can be used to bring people together and even win over potential romantic interests. However, while the cooking aspect is fascinating, the art and characters leave something to be desired. The art is serviceable, but not particularly memorable, while the characters feel somewhat one-dimensional and could benefit from more development.

Overall, Isekai Ryouridou is a fun and enjoyable read for foodies and fans of isekai manga. While the art and characters may not be the strongest aspect of the manga, the focus on food and the way it's used to navigate this new world is engaging and entertaining. If you're looking for a manga that will make your mouth water and teach you a few cooking tips along the way, then Isekai Ryouridou is worth checking out. If you want an interesting twist on isikai that can also moonlight as a cookbook, read Otherworldly Izakaya "Nobu" (READ IT I DONT THINK IVE WANTED TO BECOME A BARTENDER MORE THEN WHEN READING THIS)

A perfect example of judging a book by it's cover!

The art (at least when it's to the female anatomy) is spectacular! Everything else, passable.

The story.... You'd think that the author would have an easy path to writing a story about a chef transported to a world where they literally only cook to survive.... but you'd be wrong. Instead of driving the story home about how food unifies and mends bridges or what not it instead focuses on petty politics, made up drama, and of course over simplification of the most mundane things.... AND THAT WOULD BE FINE AND ALL IF THE MUNDANE THING COULD AT ... LEAST BE FOLLOWED LIKE FOOD RECIPES, BUT YOU CANT! ALL FOOD AND INGREDIENTS IS MADE UP SO YOU CAN'T EVEN FACT CHECK IT LOL.

Look, the intro is a solid 8. Outside of how stupid the MC died, or about how important certain things are to then quickly get forgotten all about in the following chapters, It's fine.. New world, cooking knowledge, pretty girls with tragic back stories. What can go wrong? Sorry, that's the wrong question. The correct question is " How do I mess this up?". This is how!

FINAL THOUGHTS:
SKIM IT! Hahaha, That's my honest review! It would be too harsh to the artist if we did not appreciate some of the panels he drew the female body in. I mean you can see the front cover of this manga and see that he definitely has talent. His art is wasted on such a story in my honest opinion. I'm not talking about the art with my other brain either, it's genuinely good. So skim it! Just read a page here, skim 20, and so on and you'll be done in less than 1 hour. Honestly the story is so linear that you won't even miss anything anyways! Don't waste your time otherwise!
