I'm surprised by how many series revolve around food of all kinds (real or imaginary) and cooking them. Some examples I can think off the top of my head are: Toriko, Shokugeki no Soma, Addicted to Curry, and Yakitake Japan. Are there any other such series you can think of?

Tamako Market?

Antique Bakery and Ristorante Paradiso both take place in restaurant/cafe settings.

For those with an inclination for sweets there is Yumeiro Pâtissière and of course Chocolate Underground. Then there is Ben-To which revolves around the war for food, or in this special case the fight for the daily Bento. Offering liquid food and the recipes for the most popular cocktails is the fabulous Bartender tending to the series with the same name...

A charming polar bear is owner of the Shirokuma Cafe which offers healthy and delicious organic food and beverages to its customers.

Enjoy your meal!

A second for Bartender, even if no food or cooking is involved. I watched this when I first starting with anime. After Bartender and Monster I expected to find many anime series with adult main characters. Boy was I surprised.

I especially enjoy the little historical pieces on the history of alcohol. Who knew that Scotch was the "whiskey of rebellion!"

Yumeiro Pattisiere is cute, but be aware it is more of a younger age audience target....

BARTENDER

The best series that's not licensed now. One of my favorite manga for reals....

Most of these series have recipes. I have to wonder if anyone has tried to make any of them.

SeijiSensei · 2014-02-08, 22:40

I'll say right now that I have not tried to make either the pousse-cafe style Bijou in episode four nor the "double-pour" Black Velvet in episode ten. In the latter case, I would probably spend half the day cleaning up the mess I made, and it would be a waste of good champagne to boot.

As for recipes, there's usually a featured drink with the recipe during the ED. In the EDs real-life bartenders make the featured drink on screen.

Mr Ajikko's a classic with lots of creative recipes. e.g: Eggplant-wrapped spaghetti, double-cooked extra-thick tonkatsu, multi-layered beef steak, hamburg skewers, pineapple-softened chicken rice, and many more.

It's not very well-known though, and I haven't been able to find the full series anywhere.

Fate/Stay Night and Tsukihime, but only when it goes to the visual novels

Though if talking seriously, try Nobunaga no Chef.
