Content: It’s got short stories and recipes! It’s in the Graphic Novel section with the rest of the Witch Hat Atelier manga.
The basic “plot” of this is the Atelier master, Quifey and Olruggio both love to cook, but they don’t have time during the day. So when the students are all in bed, they take to the kitchen. Sometimes alone and sometimes together, they create scrumptious meals for one another and their students.
It’s a silly book – there’s a chapter about them cooking, followed by a recipe with the magical ingredients (and footnotes in the back with our world equivalents). That’s it. It’s cute and sweet and fluffy, but not much else. It looks like there’s a bunch of these, which I guess superfans would love, but while I thought this one was charming, I have no inclination to keep reading them.
I may try out one of the recipes, though. Just to see.
