Description
Fujiwara Momoe, a girl who loves to eat, was raised by her rich parents eating only the best.
When her father dies from heart disease and Momoe has to support her and her mother, she can't stand the food that she makes (she never cooked before).
One day, she walks into a little French restaurant and recognizes the food from its taste. She had eaten it several years earlier when celebrating her birthday at a 5-star restaurant with her parents. She asks to work there as a cook under the head chef, Oda-san. She falls in love with Oda, but he doesn't notice her feelings and only considers her an annoying apprentice. This series goes through joy and heartbreak, as experienced by Momoe. How does the situation end?
Note: Was also made into an 11-part Jdrama, and a 20-part Taiwanese drama

| Very charming. by tartufo on November 13th, 2009, 5:18am |

This is an unusual manga in that the heroine is a sophisticated young lady from a rich family who nonetheless manages to possess a very innocent and everyday kind of charm. She isn't stuck up at all and is completely guileless and sweet, but still manages to possess nerves of steel when it comes to pursuing her passion (becoming a chef). I like the fact that she doesn't whine and cry about losing all her fortunes and being forced to work like a peasant - she wants to work and is proud of herself, and carries herself well no matter the circumstance. (Lol except she's being clumsy, but that's a different matter altogether. )
The male lead starts off as apparently the typical shoujo hero - the dark, handsome, cynical, genius type - but layers are uncovered to reveal that he's actually just a man, not some sort of super-glitzy shoujo/josei ideal. I like that. That makes any developments (believably slow as they are) between him and the heroine very realistic.
Plus, the food is GREAT. This is definitely a food-lover's manga! Makes me hungry every time and is very educational besides! I want to try making some of the stuff they talk about... Since I'm from a very ordinary middle-class background lol, I honestly didn't know about some of the fancy dishes they talk about in here. It's really fun to discover all these amazing foods, not to mention the complex and high-pressure situations that professional chefs have to handle in famous restaurants. I recommend this manga to anyone with such interests.
