Goodreads Synopsis

Soma Yukihira’s old man runs a small family restaurant in the less savory end of town. Aiming to one day surpass his father’s culinary prowess, Soma hones his skills day in and day out until one day, out of the blue, his father decides to enroll Soma in a classy culinary school! Can Soma really cut it in a place that prides itself on a 10 percent graduation rate? And can he convince the beautiful, domineering heiress of the school that he belongs there at all?!

The assignment is to invent a new dish worthy of appearing on the high-class Totsuki Resort’s breakfast menu. To create their dishes, Soma and his friends use the combined knowledge and confidence they’ve gained while at the cooking camp to individually pass the challenge—everyone, that is, except for Soma! Having made a critical error, he finds himself behind with little time left. What can he do to overcome his biggest hurdle yet?!

My Thoughts

I said i'd have a review on here for everything I read from now on. I forgot how difficult it can be to review manga and graphic novels, so excuse short reviews for these.

I am still very much loving Food Wars! Getting to know the characters more. This volume even brought back a character from volume 1 I completely forgot about. Seeing the students meet and accomplish tough challenges. The different personalities of the characters. The delicious sounding and looking food and the art style.

This volume also shows off big corporations versus small businesses, and I really enjoyed seeing how that was tackled. I don't know when i'll finally catch up in this series, it'll be awhile i'm sure as i'm so far behind, but I am very much looking forward to doing so! :)
