shinya shokudo is a seinen series about a man who operates an all night food place and mostly focuses on him helping out his customers. the translations aren't complete so there's a live action drama if that's your sort of thing moyashimon is silver spoon: college edition although there's more of a focus on alcohol, the making thereof and various drunk college antics the cast do consume a variety of let's say well preserved food ristorante paradiso is a josei SOL about a girl who runs away from life and ends up working in a restaurant in rome. there's food, there's romance and there's a bunch of middle aged men as eligible bachelors. the restaurant is more of a backdrop than the focus though

also i just want to note again that the concept is far from unique to japan, there's a bunch of korean shows that come down to showcasing the local cuisine by making the cast going absolutely insane, see several episodes of running man, surpluss princess. hong kong cinema too, with god of cookery being a riff on a largely untranslated genre of people going mad over food

there's some manga that will basically never be translated cause they require both in-depth knowledge of a subject and knowledge of japanese. like, say hello to blackjack is a deep look at doctors and the only reason that got translated here is cause a doctor, who happened to know japanese, decided to do so. and well, how many people with knowledge of microbiology could there be that also know japanese and are interested in moyashimon (i know there's 2 actually, cause i read a convention report from a guy who met a japanese student there that got into microbiology cause of moyashimon, but well, the point stands)
