  Seeing Iron Wok Jan come to a close is almost like seeing a relative leave your house after staying just a bit too long. When I dug into the first few volumes it was a love affair from the word go. I love to cook. I love manga. It should be a no-brainer. 27 volumes later and I'm really, really happy I'm not going to revisit the world of Jan and his co-horts anymore. It's tough for any manga to sustain an interest that long, so don't get the impression that parts of Iron Wok Jan aren't without merit. Simply note that an investment in this series is an investment not only of money, but of time. Even if you're really into cooking and manga, you might find it difficult to make it through all 27 volumes of this series. Read Full Review
