Samurai Chef
F12/100Web serial by Ronin Writes
An outworlder with two cores, a Michelin star, and a new reality separating him from everything he has worked for. After a lifetime of grueling discipline, reaching fifth Dan, and finally turning his solo shop into New York's most recent Michelin-starred restaurant, Ren was ready to reap the rewards. Then he fell into a back-alley portal. Now stuck in Valdoris — a completely foreign reality featuring sprawling cities, near-divine beings, mana planes, and enough magical bureaucracy to drive a person insane — he must fight, cook, and butcher hordes of dark monsters to survive. Armed with two newly awakened cores, the ability to cook divine boons, and godlike sword powers, his journey is singular: do whatever it takes to find a way back home.
