I was really excited to read this but it was not what I was hoping for. Far less of a focus on the food than you might expect, and the art was not as detailed as the cover implied (not bad, just different). I was intrigued by the individual plot lines introduced for each character, but they never really felt resolved at all, just wrapped up quickly to finish the book. If this book were longer with some more fleshed out character development I think I would have been really into it, particularly if there was more info on family recipes, food related memories, etc. It was a quick read, and having recipes included at the end of the book was a nice detail.
