David is right about patience. We all recover at different rates but have one thing in common: that rate feels too slow. Celebrate that you have so much taste back so soon. I was able to eat everything early on, but taste is still very sketchy after almost a year. Unless it has a lot of garlic or lemon or anchovies, it's pretty bland. And it was tiresome always being last to finish. Hang in there as it does get better.
