The placing portion (20) includes a placing surface (22A) on which an object to be heated is placed. The wall portion (20) extends in a first direction (D1) intersecting the placing surface (22A).

To eliminate various problems caused by a no-load operation. A heating cooking apparatus of the present invention, which is a heating cooking apparatus (1) that performs heating cooking of a food product (40) in accordance with an information code read from the food product (40), includes a light receiving element (32) provided at a position where the light receiving element cannot receive light when the food product (40) is present in the heating chamber (13) but can receive the light when no food product (40) is present and perform no heating cooking when the light receiving element (32) can receive the light.

A heating cooking apparatus (100) includes a heating cooking unit, a communication unit (40), a container portion (30), and a movable member (55). The heating cooking unit heats and cooks an object to be heated. The communication unit (40) wirelessly communicates with an external device. The container portion (30) contains the communication unit (40). The movable member (55) moves between a first position and a second position. The first position indicates a position of the movable member (55) when the movable member (55) is separated from the container portion (30). The second position indicates a position of the movable member (55) when the movable member (55) is closer to the container portion (30) than in the first position.
