I'm ambivalent about this one. While I enjoyed it on a superficial level, it never really went any deeper than that. I thought London especially didn't feel like a rounded character, the cooking competition was way more background-y than I would have liked, and most of the little crises seemed to dissolve without any conclusion or anyone actually working through something. So what did I like? I liked Dahlia, I liked the side characters, I liked how London's gender was written. I especially liked the joyful parts, they felt really good.
