WAR/NIN is going to be useful in a party as a main/backup tank at lvl27. WAR/MNK is going to be better if you are the spare DD in the party and want to do more DoT. So you want to put in your search comment something about being a DD WAR, and take Dhalmel Pies (not sushi or mithkabobs). However I would also suggest lvling NIN because its a fun job (although say goodbye to any free inventory space if you take all your powders with you), plus you can add Duel Wield to your WAR and lvl your Axe skill nicely. Some BCNMs benefit from NIN sub also.

Having always lvled my cooking with my main job, I have always hunted out the best food for the right lvls, and Sushi at your lvl is overkill and expensive. Don't use Mithkabobs unless you can't get Dhalmel Pies (Windy NPC sells them if you are a Windy citizen and Windy is 1st). Because of the Attack % and caps of Dhalmel Pies vs Mithkabobs, plus the 25extra HP and some other nice attributes, you get more for your money, and they stack nicely too.

I got invited to a party at the weekend as WAR34/NIN17 and I found out there were 3 WAR/NINs in the party so I asked can I come WAR/MNK (I don't have THF lvled), but was told to come WAR/NIN instead. /Sigh I could have contributed much better as a WAR/MNK to DD while the other 2 flipped tanking between them, but alas it wasn't my party so I just grinned and took it on the chin.
