Chetana reviewed Shen ye shi tang by Yarō Abe (Pu rui wen hua)
Review of 'Shen ye shi tang' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
3.25⭐️
I did not know Midnight Diner was a manga originally. I shouldn't have been surprised though. I saw these understated books in the manga section at a Kinokuniya last year and was intrigued. When I searched for food related manga I realized those books were Midnight Diner volumes. I immediately had to read at least one volume. I enjoyed this manga quite a bit. I love reading mangas about food and what they mean to people. And the Japanese seem to be good at putting those emotions on paper. Though I have watched the series and the movies there were a few stories on this volume that were not in the adaptations which felt like a bonus for me. I think I am going to read more of this manga as the year goes on. And maybe try and find others like it too.
