What Did You Eat Yesterday?

Two very warm dramas that focus on food and cooking for each other and how food can be a wonderful love language between a couple. Both dramas bring comfort and joy between two people who share a love for food as well as a love for each other. These dramas feel like home.

Although both dramas have a different story and plot, they have three very big similarities.

The first one is that both shows depict a non-toxic gay relationship in a respectful way with no fetishisation.

The second similarity is that within this gay relationship, one of them is confident in their sexuality and is not afraid to hide it whereas the other is a bit more self-conscious and does not feel as if they are ready to be 'out' in public.

This then leads to the third similarity, where the couple navigates through societal issues to better understand one another.

Both are great and if you love one, you'll most likely enjoy the other :)

Both dramas are about everyday life, where through simple moments, care, and communication, people build deep, warm relationships and a sense of “home.”

Both couples bond through meals and cooking, and at the same time they tell a realistic story of LGBTQ+ couples in Japan. Tsukuritai Onna to Tabetai Onna is sweeter and slow burn, Kinou Nani Tabeta is more humorous and the main characters are already living together. They're both worth watching, very comforting and healing! <3

Ootani and Tachibana have been inseparable since high school. Now that they're in college, they live together, they're happy and everything seems perfect. But their little world is disrupted when they meet an old high school friend, Yuki, who seems to have a crush on Tachibana, making Ootani feel jealous and insecure. Will Tachibana really choose him over a pretty girl?
