Food in the Gourmet Plane is as healthy and nurishing as it is tasty, and inhabitants have a suitably adapted metabolism and calory-consuming lifestyle, so while they eat a lot more than ordinary people they get all the benefits without any side effect for their bodies.

There are a huge diversity of Gourmet Beasts, but nothing dangerous like you can find in Toriko. The approach is much closer to real-life hunting, where the challenge is not to "defeat" the beast but rather "getting" them, since they have no intention of being caught and are usually quite adept at escaping, so only skilled, experienced and focused hunters can reasonably hope to get them.

I'm not very familiar with Norse mythology, but from what I remember it does seem so ^ ^

Seira is the one coordinating the regenerative transformation of the plane, and communicating with inhabitants through her chosen priestesses. They act as spiritual guides and social pilars with a purely oral tradition, much like celtic druids used to. They notably share with villagers the daily list of ingredients, hunting strategy, general direction and cooking recipes they receive from their goddess during nightly visions, bestow her blessing to fire up their spirit and help them face particularly difficult challenges, and preside the Gourmet festivities crowning everyone's hard work.

You summed it up quite well ;) Delicious food questing for the win :D
