A nice story of a community coming together to fight unfairness and corruption.
Soup grew up in The Brazen Manticore, a restaurant run my the infamous Trysil Heldritch. She loves cooking and being a chef in its kitchen, but when she sees a different side of her boss she begins to question the status quo. Soup soon sets out to right the wrongs in the kitchen and in the town.
A straightforward story set in a fun fantasy world. The plot was interesting enough with fairly simple characters. I did enjoy the fantasy elements.
Nice artwork with some lovely cooking montages.
Overall, a good read. Didn’t fully captivate me but interesting enough.
