Source facts
How do I interact with the kitchen environment to prepare food?
In the kitchen, you manage operations by using cards representing ingredients, cooking tools, and staff. You must drag one card onto another to perform specific actions like chopping, cooking, or plating dishes for your customers.
What is a recommended strategy for managing my staff during a shift?
You should monitor your workers' stress levels closely throughout the day. If a staff member becomes burned out, they will stop working entirely, so consider using rest periods or paid days off to keep them productive.
What is the primary objective during a typical workday?
Your main goal is to keep the shop running by managing the kitchen workflow. You must assign tasks to your crew, queue dishes on the order board, and step in manually to cook or serve if the staff falls behind.
How do I optimize my menu to improve shop performance?
Choose your daily menu based on available ingredients, tools, and your crew's capabilities. Collecting related recipes allows you to unlock set bonuses that can boost your output, reduce operational costs, or attract more customers to your shop.
What is the role of the market in my shop's progression?
The market is where you acquire essential ingredients, new recipes, and cooking tools to expand your menu. You can also purchase gear for your staff, but ensure you retain enough funds to cover wages, gas, and upcoming bills.
How do staff specialties influence kitchen operations?
Your crew consists of prep cooks, stove cooks, assembly cooks, and hall staff, each possessing their own unique specialty. Assigning them to appropriate roles ensures your kitchen runs efficiently, while hall staff handle picking up tickets and serving finished dishes.
What should I do if my staff becomes overwhelmed during a shift?
When your crew falls behind, you can manually step in to cook or serve dishes by hand. Additionally, you can use Rush cards to increase speed or provide tired staff with a rest or a paid day off.
As you complete more workdays, your crew members gain experience, which allows them to level up. This process enables them to learn new skills, though it also results in them earning a higher daily wage for their services.
How can I manage the kitchen order board effectively?
Keep a close eye on customer patience and the volume of orders. You can reassign kitchen tasks or queue extra dishes on the order board to manage the workflow and ensure no dish is left waiting too long.
Your primary objective is to keep the shop running successfully for 15 days. You must balance your daily menu, manage staff stress, and keep up with growing costs like ingredient prices, wages, and utility bills to stay open.
