Now I did like this, and it was a very uniqe novel. But like all cooking stories it usually starts off great and quickly falls off. However this story is more about the action/adventure parts of the ruined world rather than endless paragraphs on cooking, food, and the reactions. But even with this, after the starting premise (intro arc) was over it soon became stalely repetitive.This novel also suffers a bit from having too much characters, especially considering how early into the story it is. So there isn't any real character attachment, and development of them. Instead you get fast transitions such as, "This guy was a wimp, but he ate the cooking with courage buff, so now he's a berserker!"There are also some basic world plotholes. Like I get I'm nitpicky here and this is just a setting to make the story go, but I don't like how all forms of communications just stopped due to the apocalypse. This is a military base. Even one with a communications tower. It is very common to have long distant radios as backups, and even more code beeper things to communicate if need be. But there was none. The world is also ending, yet no one in their god dang mind gives a fk that their friends, family, wives, and children are out there. Not a single person even attempts to run or has a big mental breakdown to go out to search for them. Because the author wanted to show how tightnit their corps are! BS. There are many other such logical/world plotholes if u take some time to think.I would've originally rated this as a 4 due to my liking for the book, but for the 2 new mini arcs after the premise setup starting arc, the story is very repetitive and predictable. The characters are also very basic and predictable. The MC being the MC every1 starts to treat him as a "god" and nothing he says can't be wrong. His group is also #1 almost everytime (in the world and always #1 in Korea rankings) despite there being countless other military bases, guard companies, escort services, gangs, secret service, special ops, royalty, government headquarters, bittime ceos. There is so much others, thousands of places in the world, with hundreds of them being far better than his military base... yet there's none, wouldn't be surprised if the author makes the other competing top 2 world rankings be not even military to emphasize the MC's prowess at this point...If there's any remote possitives past the start, there is a big lack of females to interupt the story with braindead harem
