Takano frequents the deli of the grocery store where Nagiri works. He always purchases the bentos that Nagiri makes. One day all the bentos were sold out, so Nagiri offered dinner at his place... chef x salaryman, long distance relationship The art is very particular, it stands out in a good way. It’s not generic, but also not ugly. It’s very nice, a little bit fluffy and also a bit messy. Nevertheless, it had good transitions and flow. The characters are a-do-ra-ble. Their feelings really come through. They bring the reader on a journey of wholesomeness and cuteness overload. Personalities are well defined, simple characters who are in love. The relationship development was slow paced but entertaining. I was rooting for them from the start. There wasn’t anything particularly complicated going on, so it makes for a light and cute read. The plot was nicely paced, very sweet, and serene. I definitely feel a yearning for more, I think these characters can definitely have more going on. Who knows, maybe we’ll get a 2nd and 3rd volume? Not that things were left unfinished, I just feel like this author could go more in depth about the story, meanings, backstory, and overall development. Definitely worth reading. Glad I picked this up. Will reread in the future when I feel like it.
