Reviews with content warning for Vomit - Recept na lásku

This was really cute!!! I really enjoyed it and I was kinda worried cause someone Id heard talk about it thought it was too short and I believe disliked it because of that which I definitely understand and tho I do kinda wish we got more of the romantic subplot at the end I really enjoyed it and it was just adorableee

This story is SO adorable and romantic, and I love cooking as a backdrop. The conflicts with friends and family were also so realistic, and the struggles of having to choose a profession under capitalism at such a young age. The recipes and mini character bios in the back are a cute touch!

I really liked the book overall, but it was a bit hard to get into at the start because it dumps a lot of information at you really quickly, and also there is a

last page kiss so we don't get much of a romantic relationship between Liam and Ben

but there is some bonus content so that's good! It is very cute and we love cute little gay boys and also cute pigs.

Thank you to Oni Press for an advanced copy of this book. I can't wait to hold the physical copy in my hands!

A recent graduate from college, Ben Cook is looking for any job to do with his English degree. But nowhere is hiring without experience, until he lands a job at a restaurant. The owner is a bit eccentric but one of the chef's there, Liam, is absolutely dreamy and Ben decides to take this as a temporary position while he searches for something in his field.

This book is perfect for fans of Check Please and Love & Other Disasters! It is an adorable graphic novel with beautiful illustrations and hilarious text. The main character is complex and well-developed and he is surrounded by a diverse cast of friends and coworkers--including the "food taster" at the vegetarian restaurant: Watson the Pig.

This book doesn't take itself too seriously and there are times where you have to suspend your disbelief, but it also does a great job of dealing with the harsh reality of trying to find a job in your field post-college and the criticism that can come from well-meaning but not very understanding parents. The romance in this is slow and sweat and the friendships are adorable. I definitely recommend this graphic novel!
