This is a really great start! Cooking-based stories are really hard to come by and it's refreshing to see this genre used again. My mom is a chef so I grew up cooking and stories like these are really fun to read especially if they involve real recipes and techniques. Also, the interactions the MC has with Rena are hilarious and I'm always a fan of the simple and blunt main character who is actually really skilled at what he does. This was just really fun to read and writing is really good. Also, the dialogue is incredibly natural and it helps a lot with the immersion. Really great! Looking forward to more!
