- Some protagonists have a cheat such as knowledge of the future or plot of the book they transmigrated into, having a personal interspatial space or a reward system

- Transmigrators become caring mothers. Devoted MLs who finally have the good life they deserve, buns are raised right preventing them from becoming villains 

- Conquering hearts through food
- Face slapping is very satisfactory. <<less

I really enjoy novels that are set in ancient china where the MC starts at the bottom and raises to success (and they are farming!) so I'm compiling a list both BL and straight (though a lot of it is BL)... more>>

Some novel with food p**rn 

Welcome to The Honeysuckle Fictional Gourmet Cafe!... more>>

A place where gluttony is not a sin. Here we present all kinds of food-related fiction novels. Because our food feeds the heart.

Novel's points:
▪︎The main character (MC) could be a foodie, a cook, a chef or a pâtissier.
▪︎Food is an important part of MC's life.

Novel's values:
▪︎Food is art. Food is life.
▪︎Beside sincerity, it's true that the way to someone's heart is through their stomach.
▪︎May learn a little thing or two about eating, cooking and baking.

⚠️Warning⚠️
May contain spoilers on the novel's descriptions below. All spoilers shown are for illustration purposes only. The actual novels may differ slightly from the spoilers due to spoiler's simplified texts. <<less

I have read some of them, but not all . They are slow life no harem, no big dramas,some to none romance. Some are BG,Bl,Gl,... more>> or even no romance; so check the individual tags <<less

I want to read about food. Anyway, I don't care if it's real or fantasy, as long as it sounds tasty, then it's good. I want food to be very important. I want to read about food businesses. I want to read about reactions to sheer deliciousness and comments that praise food to the heavens.... more>>

This list is mostly concerned with food descriptions. Does the food sound tasty? Is food/cooking important? Do people react to the food in a hunger-inspiring way? Is it tasty? Is detail given? Do side characters bite into delicious morsels and wish to ascend to the skies because surely they'll never taste anything better?

I also like business aspects and such, but cooking at home is fine too. Contains het/bl mostly, but this list isn't really concerned with romance. A miscellaneous assortment of novels with some/a lot of focus on food that sounds good. I have other lists for plot. This list is for food.  <<less

BL novels that have food elements. No particular order.
(Most) novels where plot that has little involvement with food will be noted.... more>>

Novels not available on novelupdates listed in comment section.

Hope you find something you like! <<less

Novels I love reading.

Basically like those BL novels where Mc gets transmigated/Reborn/Transported into another world where types of plants are scarce, cooking something good is scarce, and nutrient solutions are the new type of norm to eat. Or just farming or cooking overall.... more>>
