1. I like how the Japanese dish is just ditched in favour of the simpler to eat European food variant, a nice change of pace.
2. Whenever I read about "poor food culture" i wonder if the author ever considered the cultural differences that would make. Humans are humans in part because we're obsessed with food. Just saying "poor food culture" really needs expanding upon. But worldbuilding and isekai don't often mix.

I guess udon noodles are kinda thick. Maybe go for ramen next time.

Kinda feels like we glossed over the fact that the farmers in debt were in debt to him.

This is kinda something that pisses me of with Japanese authors, look at how the chef is dressed, it's the iconic 19th century chef look, and then the food culture is so "poor" that never never had the idea to make pasta, something that the Etruscans have done since 400 B.C.

Noo, you see, cutting dough into roughly even strands is NASA-level technology.

I mean I guess the invention of flour itself would be a breakthrough, but they explicitly have bread already so the author is just bad at research (i.e. didn't do any).

I always feel it's weird when otherworlders try coffee and immediately like it; coffee tastes like ass.
The smell is OK, but the taste is like bitter putrid mud IMO.
People like it because they gain benefits like decreased tiredness, and if you're ingesting something without harm long enough, you learn to appreciate it. But it shouldn't be marketed as a drink, FFS, it should be marketed as medicine.
