Perfection is pompous and unrealistic. Mistakes, ugly places, and even letting things burn,
As Rubin and Mo continue their travels and the work on their documentary, a Dhabha cook on a highway to Mumbai provides a delicious look into the depth in simplicity, and how the most mundane thing can turn complex through effort.
The miniseries has been a wonder to behold so far, but it's in Rare Flavours #4 that it finally showcases a powerful thesis on what makes our appetites a wonder. Read Full Review
Rare Flavours #4 is a fascinating look into food, culture, and history, through the lense of a protagonist that somehow becomes easy to sympathize with despite his monstrous nature. Read Full Review

I had no idea what this was when I started it but after I read the first page I decided to begin with issue #1 and see if it was something I would enjoy and soon discovered something magical. This series is amazing and I'm kind of glad I didn't start reading it when it came out so I could binge read all four issues that have been released so far. Ram V's narrative is simultaneously magical, depressing, life affirming, horrifying, intoxicating and just plain beautiful. The combination of the art and dialogue is masterful and makes me remember why I love this medium so much. If you haven't tried this series I would suggest you give it a shot.
Beautiful!
I haven't been the biggest fan of this series like some people have been, but this issue was really solid. Probably my favorite one.
