They Say Chinese Cuisine Is Second-Rate? I Challenge Them to a State Banquet Cook-Off

This fanfiction is really well-written and doesn't deserve such a low score. Strengths: First, it's innovative and not just a blatant copy. Second, in just a few chapters, it vividly portrays the diversity and flavors of Chinese cuisine, allowing readers to learn about Chinese food culture and history while being entertained.

Waaaaah, finally I've found a decent food novel on Tomato! I don't have to read that story where a five-star hotel chef asks the protagonist for advice on making fried rice, only to be told to use leftover rice!

This is really well-written. Unlike most Food Wars anime, this author focuses on classic dishes from various regions, rather than simply including recipes from Cooking Master Boy or other similar shows. I'm really looking forward to seeing the author write about my hometown's cuisine! 😄 When I read Food Wars!

The writing is good, with detailed descriptions of the food, showing the author's effort in this area. However, there are some OOC (out-of-character) aspects regarding the original characters (the young lady and her secretary were companions throughout her childhood; while the young lady is willful and capricious, she's only tsundere towards her secretary, and it's unlikely she'd ignore her for…

This book is really great! So far, every chapter and every dish has pictures, and it even includes nutritional theory! Can you handle that? 😫🤔🥰

This is a very good novel about Food Wars. The author has a high level of knowledge and a thorough understanding of various Chinese cuisines. It's a rare gem. The protagonist's personality is also excellent, possessing the qualities of a Chinese chef, which feels very relatable. What I found particularly satisfying was that he taught two people in the Food Wars series a lesson for their "spicy" Chinese cuisine and Erina's aristocratic culinary concepts a lesson.

I've read many Food Wars fanfics on various platforms, and this is definitely my favorite. The plot flows smoothly, without any dragging, deliberate padding, or anything that makes you drowsy. The pacing is top-notch, not just in Food Wars, but also among the other manga and fanfics I've read on Yangshizi.

Food Wars is entertaining, except for the somewhat abstract plot of the Four Palaces (although the original series was abstract to begin with). The author also listens to reader feedback (which is great, as there were previous complaints that the author only wrote about Cantonese cuisine but neglected other cuisines, which didn't fit the title).

The food descriptions are detailed, showing the author's genuine expertise in cooking. The romance is well-developed, the main characters have a youthful personality, and the plot largely follows the original work, with appropriate length for the original parts. As a Food Wars fanfiction, I give it an overall rating of four and a half stars.

This is a very good food-themed novel, and the main character and plot blend well. The art style is consistent, and the character development is quite good compared to similar books. The plot also doesn't drag.
