@macarroiz, considering your spelling, it's easy to see why you don't like stories with big words or ideas longer then punch them

@macarroiz Isekai ryouridou is a fantastic story with the exact three themes you listed. The manga isn't that good, but the novel is really good in attempting to build a society that is different from 99.9% of the societies in generic "isekai" manga.
And yes, there is no other good manga/novel I'm aware of that focuses on cooking and "isekai", simply because it doesn't work.
That's because "isekai" is based mostly on game settings rather than a classic fantasy setting like e.g. "Ima,soko ni iru boku" or "Märchen awakens romance"(or MÄR for short).
The manga Isekai Cheat Survival Meshi is worth at best 1 star in its current format, it keeps feeding the protagonist the right monsters at the right time to learn the right abilities so he can survive without the need to run away. These stories are boring, it just escalates into becoming a hyper-inflated power fantasy with the same settings and scheming we all know and hate with a passion.
In many cases there isn't even some sort of traditional "road block" we know from JRPGs that requires the protagonist to focus on something else for the time being, it's straight out running from quest to quest until it's either axed or completed once the author gets bored or the novel stops selling.
I don't expect The Lord of the rings when reading some of these novels, but the quality is so bad you might think it's actually one of these rom-coms or moe stories that are also frequent in the novel market.
