Two shounen-ai titles that eschew most of the predominant cliches. Both are about adults instead of teenagers, the seme≠big and rough, the uke≠look like a little girl, their relationships are pretty balanced, there's no "I'm going to rape you because I love you" scenes, characters don't act stereotypically "shounen-ai" (they're more concerned with either getting drunk and bickering, or being a savvy lawyer than fawning all over each other). They also both food-oriented, though while in Kinou Nani Tabeta? food is the main focus and the relationship is a mere side-dish, in Dining Bar Akira the opposite is true.
