David Welsh, declares the Vegetables volume of Oishinbo A La Carte his favorite to date. Finally, Brigid “MangaBlog” Alverson dons her chef’s hat to review a new cookbook from Vertical, The Worry-Free Bakery. Brigid, who’s an excellent baker, offers newbies essential tips for getting the most of The Worry-Free Bakery. Go, read!









Thanks for the link and praise! I had a pretty hard time writing that so it’s always nice to get positive feedback.
You’re very welcome, Michelle! Having read Dokebi Bride, too, I know how hard it is to describe the series; it feels like an amalgam of ten different shojo manga plots, yet it’s very much its own beast. You did a terrific job explaining its special charms.
Thanks!
