I finished binging the show yesterday, but I didnāt feel anything strongly about episode 11. I thinkā¦ the most interesting or memorable episode was probably the one with the mushroom circle for me.
Either way, I LOVE cooking at home. So, every single cooking montage is like my favorite thing ever. Which sort of makes it difficult to pick a favorite.
Oh man, you are speaking my language. I just wrote about how I have become a fan of the cooking genre of anime/manga as I have gotten older. If you haven't seen it, you might want to check out Campfire Cooking in Another World. It does a bit of a mix between fantasy ingredients and irl brands and ingredients.
As for Episode 11, the thing that made it really stand out to me was how the OST was employed and it marked a major turning point for the show in tone. I wrote a ton more about it in the episode discussion thread. Now that you have watched it, you can go in without worrying about spoilers.
I am not really that familiar with the non-premium experience on CR (or the dub version of the show), so I can't really help you too much there. Sailing the high seas of the internet is always an option. As much as I am an advocate for supporting official distribution channels, sometimes they are just really, really bad (HiDIVE used to be horrendous, but has gotten a bit better with some time).
