Boiled bacon 😭😭😭 I love my bacon crispy, so I'm not into any bacon style that prevents it from crisping (thick cut, boiled, roasted, lean, etc). Most non-pork bacons too. Also, I noticed that you wrote the person's name as Kurogasiwa to match the name of his company, but people sometimes...

"Too young" to eat karaage? How old is the kid, again? Why would she be too young to eat fried chicken but not too young to eat cupcakes? No, it's because that's just a joke. Like, the reason why these stuff keeps appearing is just because Japanese people like to see them and think it's a funny...

I want bacon now.

So... the way to defeat the mother dragon is gonna be to make her super tasty food?

Rereading this, Koizumi does come across as rather scummy in the breakfast meeting. It's not like he came up with his own toppings, he outright stole ideas from the other employees, and took all the credit. Like he didn't even have the decency to give a little nod like "This was from our...

This one kind of just felt random to me. It doesn't explain why and how Kaibara's food is better. It just has some blah about how delicious the abalone is and doesn't tell us which part of the cooking process made it that way. Like Kaibara said the salt baking is the first step, but he didn't...

She isn't wrong but talking like that in a restaurant with company is obnoxious and preachy. At least she isn't trying to stop others from eating, I'd give her that.

Thanks for the translation, but did you make up a nonsense name for the heroine just to make the "green tea" joke or did the AI gave you that? I understand that it's not easy to translate the Japanese pun where the "heroine (spelled "hiroin" in Japanese) was called "hidoin" (hidoi = terrible)...

I agree with this. That's why the message at the end was "We should've been honest". The husband was too timid and wanted to be supportive so he didn't dare say that he didn't want to divorce. The wife also felt like she didn't express more clearly/strongly that she didn't truly want to divorce...

Honestly Japanese rice is really that good. I'd feel so bad about cooking it wrong too. Now on the other hand, long grain rice even when cooked perfectly feels dry to me, so I always make it mushy and soggy on purpose.

I'm rereading old chapters and saw that in my older comment up there I never did mention what the problem was. According to the other manga I read it's not a matter of taste, but literally the wine selection is wrong. Supposedly the wine called "Chablis" has different varieties, and there's...

I relate. Not a professional historian, but I do a lot of independent research/reading on Pre-Tokugawa history.

Ah, another one from the Ala Carte compilations. Always interesting to see the different approaches.

The Kantō-Kansai thing always fascinates me LOL. Even the food shape, like if you ask for zenzai what you'd get it Kansai is completely different from the Kantō style. I do hear that the difference is not that strict these days, but still. Great Taikō: Toyotomi Hideyoshi, whose centre of power...

That's ok, in this chapter all you can see is the wings so it's hard to see cl. I just happened to remember because I reread the old chapters recently.
