Review Detail of Daoist_Dan in Gourmet Food Supplier

This story has really started to grow on me, although I do admit to struggling with it quite a bit. I think it was the pacing at first, as the story seemed to promise a slow upward trend instead of something fast and exciting. In any case the story is about a guy in his 20's throwing himself into the deep end alongside a mysterious system that has dedicated itself to improving his cooking to the peak. I tend to judge a story based on its faults rather than its pro's, so that's what I've decided to focus on for this review. However, I hope readers realize that this is without context and however damning it might seem, my issues might not necessarily be issues for you. 1. The story can get very repetitive. After you've read 50 chapters or so you'll start to notice the same thing happening over and over again. Cooking for his customers, getting a mission, getting the reward and introducing it to the customers, then rinse and repeat a few dozen times. The food he cooks does change with time as well as the faces visiting his shop. It keeps things a little fresher, but I really don't suggest reading the story in large chunks like I did because the repetition becomes very apparent. More missions would likely have helped with this I think. 2. The author likes to surround his MC with the aura of a mysterious and elevated figure. That's usually something that's fun to read, but in this story that's the role the MC plays when in the company of other characters(Which is almost literally every chapter so far). What ended up happening is the MC stopped being a person in my mind and became someone else's... Wish fulfillment? Their Gary Stu? I've read 129 chapters but have yet to see the MC experience a single loss worth mentioning :/ 3. The freaken aliens man... I was promised aliens... That's what really got me to this point, the promise that eventually this story is supposed to reach towards the stars and go galactic. My curiosity keeps demanding I read on, but the logic portion of my mind is telling me it could take a year before the translation reaches that point. Well, the logic portion is also suggesting I've been lied too because I haven't seen anyone else talking about it, but that could just be because it's all written in another language right? Help please? :( Regardless of whether or not you're interested in the premise or just want to kill some time, this story is a decent read despite its flaws. So give it a shot and maybe you'll like it.
