Hiyokko Ryourinin

A food manga about a woman who runs a cooking class for children.

This was such a heartwarming read! I really like how the series starts off with a genuinely positive relationship between the main character and a young boy who wants to cook for his single father. It seems like the story might pursue a possible relationship between this father and the woman but I didn’t find anything wrong with that.

If anything I kinda felt like this book was suggesting that a woman in the kitchen who can cook was the best thing possible but the young boy who quickly becomes a good chef on his own counterbalances that. I might have to read more to see if it truly pursues some sexist stereotypes. Otherwise I’d say this is an absolutely adorable manga.
