The goddess grants him and his companion a wish. Main character wants a restaurant in the real world where he can serve the dishes from this fantasy world, not because they are good but because the food of this fantasy world is considered the worst in all realms.

18!!Contains the following tropes: (-/55)
19* AcquiredPoisonImmunity: Seungwoo cooks Bizarre Food in hopes the hunters of Earth will become stronger...kwak, high poison resistance provided if you finish one pancake
20** living in Tera for 6 months
21* AllForNothing:
22* ArtShift: cartoony, exaggerated
23* BearsAreBadNews: Uruk, warriors
24* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: in his drunken state
25* BitchInSheepsClothing: The guide of the ISAC blacksmith Seo Narae hides her animosity well for Seungwoo's unusual request of forging a kitchen knife:
26-->'''Narae:''' [Thinking] Who even is this guy? Did he come here knowing what this place is? You're not worthy of being here if you're not a First Order! (Thumbs down with grimace look)
27-->'''Narae:''' Unfortunately, we don't have kitchen knives at the moment. You will have to place a custom order.
28-->'''Seungwoo:'''
29-->'''Narae:''' [Thinking] (Smirks)
30* BreakingTheFourthWall: jump up so high it broke the panel/border roof
31* {{Callback}}:
32* ChefOfIron:
33* ComfortFood: Clam chowder, minotaur milk
34* DeathByGluttony:
35* DeconstructiveParody: FoodPorn manga, the focus is not how delicious the food is but whether you can ''survive'' it at all, serves as a deconstruction of PowerUpFood
36* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu:
37* DietEpisode: In chapters 26 and 27, Suengwoo gets pudgy from binge-eating pizza and movie marathoning, normallly doesn't happen
38* DimensionalTraveler: achieve Godhood
39* EvenTheGuysWantHim: Seungwoo, [k-pop] celebrity
40* FireBreathingDiner: Baek's first taste of Seungwoo's cooking... his insides were set ablaze
41* FoodAsCharacterization: The first dish Seungwoo made for his customers fit their personalities more or less:
42** Baek: Reus Steak - fiery, boisterous, attention-seeking (screaming as it was frying), tough to cut into
43** Min: porridge - weak, feeble and sickly at first, HealingPotion, became stronger the more he gained a tolerance, reliable and sturdy
44** Jihyun: Clam chowder - elegant dish, professional manner as an aide, relaxing and smooth, quickly warms up to people, perhaps too much
45** Seo Taeji: Kwak - methodic, calm under pressure (Winter spirit chill), poison resistance
46* FoodPorn: subversion, half the food he makes, drawn with such incredible, mouth-wateringly delicious detail
47* ForceFeeding: not wanting his 3-star dish go to waste, Suengwoo shoved the rest of the Reus steak down Baek's throat after refusing to take another bite... literal inflamed throat
48* ForeignQueasine: MiseryBuildsCharacter
49* GilliganCut: give the weapons a worthy owner, the next panel has a sign at his restaurant challenging hunters to the "Bizarre Food Challenge" where the prize is an ISAC-certified artisan's weapon of your choosing
50* GladiatorGames: Seungwoo was forced to compete in multiple deathmatches at some point in Tera, imprisoned in the Colosseum
51* IfItTastesBadItMustBeGoodForYou: Tera's philosophy when it comes to their food, their tastebuds had advanced to associate status buffs, effects and power-ups as flavour and not the flavour itself, more or less a defense mechanism for how atrocious the taste and small is...BadIsGoodAndGoodIsBad, touchy subject
52* ImpossiblyCoolWeapon: Seungwoo's stockpile of elven equipment, 500+
53* LethalChef:
54* MagicalWeapon:
55
56* MasochistsMeal:
57** dehydrated meat roast, the ultimate diet dish, puts the "die" in "diet", hard gut-punch, under-leveled while battling the demon lord, burns calories and lose weight, 4-star dish, destroys and regenerates muscles and nerves
58*** large raven meat (rarer than dragon), Flame Spirit King's Crystals (salt substitute, explodes if mana is not managed properly, each grain equivalent to a grenade), ent starch from Alswear region (sugar substitute called "Taste of Sin", prohibited until few hundred of years ago, destroys any savory flavour while explosively amplifying all effects), crypto fruit (super spicy, consider a weapon, excellent effect on heart health, helps burn fat)
59** Ragnarok, ripped your physical body and soul asunder, OminousCube, GeometricMagic 5-star ...Ragnarok style
60
61* MedicinalCuisine: wonder if he's a pharmacist not a chef
62* MiseryBuildsCharacter: What the people of Tera and Seungwoo believed in
63* NewLifeInAnotherWorldBonus: denied any advantage...Gaia, favoritism, laziness
64* OnlyTheChosenMayWield: Thanks to his high levels... Seungwoo invokes this on every elven equipment that laid its non-existent eyes on him, dubbed The Elf Item Killer, 88 of Alister's weapons... settle on finding worthy wielders with a Bizarre Food Challenge
65* PlanetEater: Formula Zero, BlobMonster bioweapon originating from the former planet Gernia, absorbs everything in its path, grow in weight and covered the entire planet in slime
66* PowerAtAPrice:
67* PowerLevels:
68** 3-star: Reus Steak, lamb chops... What the average Tera citizen eats daily
69** 4-star: The ultimate diet dish
70** 5-star: Ragnarok, Lake Skygazer Ragnarok (Possibly 6-Star, no effects and bio-weapon destroying capabilities)
71* PowerUpFood: Deconstructed. The power boosts, at the cost of abysmal taste, negative systematic effects and even death if the body cannot withstand
72** Reus Steak - high fire resistance, enhanced strength and vitality and dragon's ability
73** porridge - HealingPotion, curing fatigue, sickness and physical ailments
74** Clam chowder - recovery, relieves cold symptoms and stress, warming effect, the only Bizzare Food that's actually delicious
75** The Ultimate Diet Dish -
76** Franchberk Baby Food - increases vigor, forcibly develops a combative nature ... goes absolutely berserk, battle-junkie, destroys everything in its path
77** Kwak - high poison and cold resistance + other health benefits
