Story
To be honest, this show doesn't really have a plot per say. It's simply about the main character, Wakako, eating and drinking, talking about food pairings, and so forth. We do see some snippets of Wakako's work-life. If this was a full length episode series then it would probably be boring, but since the episodes are only 2 minutes long (or 1 and 1/2 minutes if you don't count the opening) then this type of set-up works. It helps that the episodes are well paced.
Animation
Some people may get turned off by the way Wakako's drawn, but I think it adds to her charm and helps her stand out. Also, I love the way food looks in this series. It's so beautiful and delicious looking that just looking at the food in this series makes me hungry.
Sound
While the opening song isn't anything special, it is pleasent, somewhat catchy, and fits the tone of the series. The same can be said about the background music.
Characters
Wakako doesn't get alot of character development, but since the episodes in this series only last 2 minutes long I didn't expect much character development anyways. What she lacks in character development, Wakako makes up for it by being likable and relatable. It helps that we can see some snippets of her work-life as well as see some of her personality quirks in the way she talks about food.
Overall
This series isn't anything amazing, but it is enjoyable for what it is. If you are looking for a "bite-sized snack" to fullfill your anime craving, then you may want to check out this series.
