Both MCs are very passionate of their work and are not afraid to think out of the box to gain an advantage of a situation. They work their way around things that may seem impossible and will always see through things to the end. Their hard work and dedication is something that stands out from everyone else, which obviously attracts the attention from a variety of people naturally making them a leader of some sorts and a target for others. Many surprise moments and wow factors from both anime that will put you on the edge of your seat.
Mundane made awesome. Both shows have protagonists that triumps over enemies with the help of wits and knowledge, not afraid to use unusual methods and of course are very smug about their victories. Both are original takes on the battle shounen genre. While Dr. Stone has battles done with the help of science, Shokugeki no Souma has battles done with cooking.
Over-the top, yet still engrossing and believable in a way few other shows manage to achieve. How? Their secret lies in being faithful to real life where it really matters - science for Dr. Stone and cooking for SnS. Nerdgasms all but guaranteed!
-Both feature similar protagonists
-Both have similar exaggeration of mundane tasks like taking something out of the oven or completing an innovation
-In both, the protagonist is overwhelmingly better at what they do (cooking, creating) than their companions (although this changes in later seasons of Food Wars), and they have a supporting character who they teach, alongside teaching the audience

The way food is central in food wars, in the same way science is central in Dr. Stone. Both series feature main characters obsessed with reaching a higher level of understanding of these central elements. Much of the episodes are also spent in explaining the details behind how these central elements work, how the raw materials that construct a meal or a piece of technology function and their importance.

Both MCs are enthusiasts, almost to and arrogant level, in what they do. For Senku it is science, and for Souma it is cooking.
Both anime also use everyday activities as a theme, which isn't really done in shounen anime. The themes are both executed well which shows the beauty in science and cooking.
Both MCs also have their own catchphrase.

Food Wars is Dr.Stone with cooking and Dr.Stone is Food Wars with technology.
Those two animes are extremely similar, each episode, you're presented a new recipe/invention, and everything is explained about it, its concept, its taste/effect, its author/conceptor, everything is well detailed, explained and drawn, I highly recommand both of those animes if you liked any of these two.

both are shounen that focus on someone that is very good at a specific skill and instead of the MC having physical battles, they have battles on that skill. The humor elements are also similar.
