Although set in different periods (one historical, one present), both dramas are about women dedicated to traditional japanese cooking.
It is no complicated premise, but both series manage to make it appealing through good acting (especially by the two leading women) and a warm, lighthearted atmosphere without getting too simple or annoyingly repetetive.
