 It’s a fun sci-fi cozy called “Happy Snak” by Nicole Kimberling.  The basic premise is Becky Chambers x Legends and Lattes.  A cranky fast food joint owner on a space station gets unwillingly caught up in alien politics that she doesn’t understand when all she wants to do is repair her deep fryer and sell tasty things.   Bonus points for the repeated idea that “Snacks are freedom!” Quirky, great world building, and overall fun.
