Emma Dreams of Stars

A collaboration between acclaimed mangaka Kan Takahama, french writer Emmanuelle Maisonneuve and Kodansha's Morning Magazine.



Emma has a gift, that of taste. Thanks to the finesse of her taste buds, she manages to become an inspector for the prestigious Michelin Guide and realize her dream: discovering the secrets of chefs. Her path is littered with obstacles. She is sent to travel the length and breadth of the streets of France to visit hotels and restaurants. She happens to eat too much, sometimes badly, and clashes with the machismo of the environment. However, guided by her passion for cooking and her unstoppable independence, she will experience an extraordinary sensorial and human adventure that will take her all the way to Japan.
