I really like the art and atmosphere of the game, but found the gameplay to be a bit repetitive and not very challenging as there doesn't seem to be any kind of punishment for doing badly (to my knowledge)
part of that is the point. If you know how to consistently cook good meals, you've finished the game.
Punishing the player for cooking bad meals would really hurt experimentation. The puzzle here is essentially trial and error, and if the error is punishing then it becomes just awful.
