Kouhei Inuzuka is a high school teacher who recently lost his wife. He does his best to take care of his daughter Tsumugi, but doesn't ever cook. While walking through the park they see a girl crying as she is eating. After learning that her mom didn't show up to eat with her she gives Kouhei and Tsumugi a business card for her mom's restaurant. One night when Tsumugi is hungry, Kouhei calls the number on the card and goes to the restaurant. They find Kotori Iida alone when they finally arrive. She tells them that her mom is currently out but she will do her best to make rice for them. After eating Kouhei promises to start cooking and upon hearing that Kotori asks if they would mind cooking from time to time with her since her mom is almost always gone. Tsumugi and Kouhei agree to her request, and both do their best to learn to cook together.
Sweetness & Lightning was a fun anime about food. I always enjoy these types of anime. It kind of resembles Restaurant to Another World but without the fantasy characters and it takes place in a home instead of a restaurant. The anime has a wholesome feeling and is devoid of any fan service and swearing. If you enjoy anime's about cooking I would suggest giving Sweetness & Lightning a try.
