I came across this manga mainly because I'm trash for generic and basic isekai but what I found was a nice little gem.
-----------------------
Pros:
- While manga with cooking as a premise often seems to base their entire story around it which often leads to an underdeveloped story/world, this manga seems to incorporate the cooking aspect while also developing every other aspect perfectly
- One of the two strongest points of this manga is the world. Like I said before, there's a well-developed world and often makes you believe that while you're reading, you only scratched the surface of the world and what's to come.
- Consistently detailed and pleasing art
- The story is good, and evolves further and further. With the help of the well set up world, the story is able to build itself up, making you invested in all other aspects like the world and the characters.
- The other of the two strongest points is without a doubt, the characters. A wide range of characters and cultures (Japanese, Scottish/British, Greek, & Chinese). This diversity in culture gives a lot of freedom into the types of dishes that can be made as well. This diversity in culture is incorporated while still having a large and diverse group of fantasy characters with their own characteristics (Elves, Dwarves, Beastmen)
- One of the main reasons as to why the characters is a strong point is because of the interactions/dialogue. It's really entertaining watching the interactions and dialogue between the characters (the little irish girl is really charming lol)
-----------------------
Cons:
- Some cliche moments that repeats every now and then
- Can be hard to read at times with some unnecessary panels that can just be removed
-----------------------
Overall:
This manga is very entertaining to read and the pros outweigh the cons. It's not anything fantastic but go give it a read if you haven't already
