I have seen several comments on how hard the cooking mini game is. I find it kind of ease & nice to play. & if you mess up you can reload from last save like when one does fail any of the mini games.
I am not into most things suggested here, especially the wishlist is not for me.
I agree about the minigame criticism - minigames becoming too much of a distraction from the actual game has happened to games before way too often.
I have discussed the cooking-game and minigames in general, with a good outcome here: https://itch.io/post/16279178
