1 basic
Restaurants in the game vary in size, which correspondingly limits the number of employees (including chefs). For small restaurants that are divided into upstairs and downstairs, the distribution of employees should be arranged reasonably. This game pays great attention to the placement and route of tables and chairs. Too dense tables and chairs will cause guests to complain that they are "too noisy", while too far apart will not only waste space but also affect the speed of serving. Pay special attention to employees' service routes. If an employee is blocked several times, the food in his hand will be gone, and the money will definitely not be received (there will be serious complaints). Therefore, it is necessary to hire employees moderately. If you have too many employees, you will be blocked by yourself. There is another point that needs special attention: when the waiter takes dishes from the cooking counter, he can take many dishes at a time, but only one dish can be taken by the food delivery machine at a time, so more tables and chairs can be placed on the floor where the kitchen is located, otherwise the number of tables and chairs should be controlled to avoid increasing guest complaints. All employees except the chef can be employed in the employment panel, and the chef can only join through the plot, so it is a valuable resource. It doesn't matter even if there are too many cooks sometimes. You can't fire them. They will be used in future levels.
2 stall for time
As the chef's skill only depends on his proficiency, try to make the chef cook more. In the plot mode, if possible, it is best to use up the limited time of each level and postpone it to the last month. This not only accumulated funds, but also improved the chef's skills. In the case that the previous level is relatively simple, if you rush too fast, you may not be able to achieve your goal after the difficulty of the latter level increases.
3 proficiency
The chef's proficiency in a certain dish is determined by the proficiency of all dishes in this category, which may be similar to the average level; The proficiency of new dishes depends on this average. For example, there are only two dishes in the early stage of "appetizer" If both dishes are practiced to 100%, then the new dishes that belong to "appetizers" in the future will have 100% proficiency when they first appear. If a 100% and a 50%, then the new dishes in the future will appear with 75% proficiency. Therefore, when there are few dishes in the early stage, try to let the chef improve the proficiency of each category.
quaternity
Another factor that affects the chef's skills is the skills of other chefs in the same restaurant. Even a new chef with full skills 1%, if placed in a restaurant with high-skilled chefs, his skills will go up in one month; And if a restaurant doesn't have a high-skilled chef, and they are all novice chefs, then this skill will rise slowly like a snail, so the chef's skill. Therefore, when a new chef joins, it is necessary to arrange the deployment of the original chef reasonably to achieve the best effect of "high with low".

In addition to the chef's skills, the quality of ingredients will also affect the quality of cooking. There are two kinds of ingredients in the game, menu ingredients and chef ingredients. Menu ingredients refer to the ingredients provided by suppliers, which can be specified in the cooking list; Chef's ingredients refer to the ingredients purchased by the chef himself, and only the chef can specify the ingredients used when cooking. In case of emergency, there is no other way but to wait for the story. There are no stories about suppliers in the first few levels, but the problem of ingredients is mentioned in the tutorial, which leads many players to think that they have to do something to find suppliers, but they can wait patiently. In an emergency, after someone informs the supplier of the information, a white bottle-shaped object will appear behind some ingredients in the cooking list, which is the ingredients that the supplier can supply. Click on the white bottle and select the supplier in the supplier list. White bottles will turn into red bottles, and this better quality ingredient will always be obtained from suppliers in the future. At the end of the game, when there are many suppliers, two suppliers will supply the same raw material at the same time. At this time, the original red bottle will turn white again, allowing the player to choose another one (of course, the one with better quality). Although the design idea of menu ingredients is good, it is really a headache in the later stage of the game. There will be a bunch of suppliers at almost every level, and then I will manually browse the huge cooking list and supply a lot of ingredients as a supplier. Anyway, I'm tired of getting the chef's ingredients in two ways, one is in an emergency, and the other is to buy them myself when there is a fruit and vegetable shop in the middle of the game. It is worth noting that the chef who comes forward to solve the emergency (randomly selected from the chefs in this restaurant) can get the ingredients, while the protagonist can only get what he bought. When the designated chef cooks, if the chef has the ingredients needed for this dish, he can choose whether to use the chef's ingredients; You can also choose when you enter the competition (after choosing a chef, if there is an ingredient sign below, it means that the chef has ingredients for the dish). The quality of ingredients will affect the star rating of cooking, so it must be used in the competition (if any). However, because it is troublesome to obtain the chef's ingredients, and you can only wait for the next activity or buy them again after use, it is generally not recommended to use them in daily operation.
6 competition
At the plot level, there will be a food contest. In the case that the chef's skill is not high in the early stage of the competition, it is suggested to go to the competition hall in advance every time, write down the events and dishes of the competition, and then come back to concentrate on training. The chef's proficiency is getting more and more familiar, and he should try his best to get the guests to order more of this dish. Some posts say that lowering the price of dishes can achieve the goal of selling more. As far as my practice is concerned, this method is not effective. It's best to appoint a chef with higher proficiency to cook this dish (of course, he plays games), and then delete all other dishes of the same type from the menu, so that guests can only order this dish. In this way, there will be many complaints about "not rich in dishes", which will affect income. Anyway, practice for a few months to improve your familiarity. When there are not many guests in the early days (ordering less), this method can also easily improve the proficiency by more than 30% every month (day), and it can reach 100% in two or three months at most. In the middle and late stage of the competition, because the chef's skill is high, the competition is often several rounds, as long as the total score is the highest, so there is basically no need to practice the competition dishes. As long as the chef plays well in the early stage (more practice time and high skills), he will definitely win (once again, the importance of procrastination ~ ~). The pre-competition is very valuable, you can get food, improve your ranking, and don't miss a game; It's not very important at the end of the game.
7 accidents
Unexpected events in the game usually occur in the first month, rarely in the second month, and never in the third month. Generally divided into buying recipes, selling recipes, increasing proficiency, providing raw materials, plot events and so on. Buying a recipe is to praise the delicious food of one of your dishes first, and then want to pay for the recipe of this dish. If you make money and have no losses, of course you agree. Selling recipes means selling new dishes to you. Variety of dishes can increase the choice of guests, and there are many dishes. Sure, you have to buy it. It is worth noting that new dishes are more expensive, generally between 1 and 20,000, and the price will be raised appropriately later. Therefore, we must control our own expenses in the early stage, accumulate funds, and ensure that we can buy recipes first. The recipe sales in the game are random, which means that even if you pass the customs, you may not get all the recipes. Increasing proficiency means spending money to increase the proficiency of a dish. You don't have to buy it when money is tight at first. Anyway, the proficiency of practice will go up and the dishes will appear randomly, so even if you are 100% proficient, your proficiency will still improve. Don't spend money at this time; Providing raw materials will generally tell you the situation of a certain supplier, and then some dishes in the fried menu can use the raw materials provided by the supplier (more than three stars), which increases the cost and the quality of the dishes. This information is free; The plot event is that some specific plot characters appear in the restaurant, which leads to the future plot. Dishes from another country can't appear in restaurants of other countries' styles, so at the beginning of the game, there will be cases where you buy dishes but they are not in the list of dishes. That's because maybe this dish is Italian and won't appear in French restaurants, but it will appear in Italian restaurants in the future.
