Summary:
Dating can be tough – especially when you’re not great at meeting new people. Kenta finally met a girl he liked. It was perfect. She’s kind and cute and even likes trying the food he loves so much. So what’s the problem?
Mostly, he’s about to get transferred. Can a long-distance relationship work? Even when it is so new and sweet? Meanwhile, Chihiro seems to know a good thing when she sees it because she has an idea of how to handle this news.
Review:
How to Grill Our Love Vol. 1 is probably one of the calmest and sweetest series I’ve checked out, at least in recent times. It’s the perfect slow-burn romance for readers who love a lot of food talk.
Yeah, I should probably mention that bit! Kenta and Chihiro really bond over food – grilling food, specifically. I think it’s super cute that this series emphasizes the need to find something to share with your loved ones.
That said, if grilling isn’t your cup of tea, you might find the details to be a bit on the drier side. Having never really experienced this myself, I found a lot of the flavor profile talk going over my head. Still, I’m happy that I gave it a try!
Highlights:
- Manga
- Slice-of-life
- Romance
- Foodie
Will I continue the series? No
