I like this simple drama though I know it could've done better especially with its ending. I love how they presented Japanese culture through food. I also love the actors and their acting especially the female lead. The drama is a light-hearted one if you want to take a break from serious dramas and if you want to feel much closer to Japanese culture, I would recommend this. I also love the music especially the opening theme. I would watch it if I'm in for a Japanese touch. Overall, it's a simple Japanese drama that would touch your inner Nihonjin especially your stomach whose in for Japanese cuisine and for a funny entertaining treat.

I totally loved the whole concept of preserving the tradition without giving in to the times, and I also really appreciated the photography and Aoi Yu's performance (and cuteness!). But apart from that, I have to confess that I found everything else in this dorama just so-and-so, particularly the over-the-top, shounen-manga vibe which exudes from most scenes. Too bad, as far as I'm concerned; had it had a more adult, deeper script, I would have liked it much more. As is, I can't helo but feeling it's somehow a missed opportunity.
