This was a fantastic reading experience. I really appreciate all the work that must have went into creating this world. Dara and it's people feel almost tangible at this point. I feel like I know so much about them and they have such a rich history. Yet they're changing and evolving like any culture. It's fascinating. 
 
The cooking competition was amazing. I was surprised by how I enjoyed every aspect of the restaurant feud. I just wish Kuni had been there. He would have loved it.
