To escape her loathsome kin, Saras needs to win Interstellar Megachef. Two minor challenges: she is unfamiliar with interstellar cuisine and the judges despise Earthlings like Saras.

Perhaps The Goblin Emperor? Maia was addressed as 'Serenity' instead of Majesty.

Could be. The time frame feels right, though that "sense" is very vague, and the suggestion doesn't make my brain go "click!"

Various important real people have had a form of address of "Serene Highness". It seems to be the next best thing to a Majesty. I suppose that if you don't have the actual highness or the majesty, that just leaves the serenity. I believe they make do with Serenity in Thailand, as well. The other stuff, they're above that.
