When life falls apart… and is cooked back together
When 29-year-old Momoko Yuki is dumped by her boyfriend after a four-year relationship, she gets blind drunk out of desperation. She comes to in an unfamiliar establishment in the company of an equally unfamiliar but very attractive man, who turns out to be the owner of a not-so-prosperous café. It is there that she begins a new career as a cook and embarks on a journey of healing, improving her self-esteem and finding her place in life. Along the way, she meets many people whom she helps to cope with a failed relationship or a loss in their lives—all with the help of delicious food that you too can cook, thanks to the included recipes.
A book about self-discovery, relationships (romantic and otherwise) and good food.
Saki Kawashiro
Saki Kawashiro was born in Tokyo in 1992. After studying at Waseda University, she worked for several companies in the book industry before becoming a writer. While working as a manager of a book café, she came up with a recipe for "The Chicken Curry My Ex-Boyfriend Loved" for the café and wrote a short story to go with it on a promotional sign. This generated a huge response on social media, and the author was even invited onto an Asahi TV show, which gave her the idea to write an entire novel in this format. She debuted in 2022 with the self-help guide I Can't Seem to Find My Place in Life (Watashi no ibasho wa mitsukaranai).
