What the screen is showing you
CheckIn short
Knowing where to look saves time when orders are coming in fast.
The interface packs a lot in. The restaurant's star rating sits just below the in-game clock at the top. The clock runs on 24-hour time, so 13:00 means 1 PM. Down in the bottom-left you can see your currency, your rank, and your current energy level at a glance.
- Star meter below the clock shows your restaurant's current rating
- Bills / Bank chart inside the restaurant tells you if bankruptcy is getting close
- Energy bar in the bottom-left low energy slows your character down
- Recipes button at the top open it any time you forget how to make a dish
- Locator button on the right helps track down missing utensils
- Earnings multiplier at the bottom shows how much each order pays out

04
Getting through your first shift
Step
In short
A clear routine from the moment you spawn stops early chaos before it starts.
The restaurant begins on day 0 each time a new server starts. Customers arrive and place orders, and your job is to cook and serve those dishes to earn currency and ranking points. Keep an eye on the bills chart on the restaurant wall — once bills exceed the bank, the kitchen shuts down and the server resets to day 0.
- Check the Recipes button open it to see what ingredients each dish needs
- Organize the kitchen an organized kitchen makes it easier to find needed utensils and appliances
- Cook and serve customers only accept food served in deep plates, plates, bowls, cups, or mugs, so always plate up before handing anything over
- Use the mop and the cleaning cloth to keep a five-star rating you need the mop for spills and the cleaning cloth for windows
- Watch the bills chart if bills exceed the bank, the kitchen clears itself and the server resets to day 0

Saving time in the kitchen
Tips
In short
Small habit changes add up to noticeably faster service and more currency per shift.
Most of the time lost in a shift comes from small habits that feel right but are actually slower.
Tips worth knowing
- Salt and most other seasonings do not affect whether a customer gives full stars — the one exception is sugar on Candied Apple, which you do need to include
- Exact measurements for liquids and ingredients are not required; as long as all the required ingredients are present, customers will still give a full five-star rating
- Drinking coffee restores energy faster than sitting on the couch; you can also drink coffee while wiping the window
- The stove, oven, and deep fryer all cook at the same speed, so use whichever suits you
- The blender yields 400 ml, enough for four servings, while the boiling pot yields 500 ml for five
- Store finished food in the fridge to keep it from being discarded or taken by other players, and to keep the floor clear
06
Managing energy and avoiding bankruptcy
Warn
In short
Running out of energy or letting bills outpace the bank are the two fastest ways to lose a shift.
Energy controls how fast your character walks. Bankruptcy is the game-over condition — when bills exceed the bank the kitchen clears itself and the server resets.
Worth watching out for
Your walking speed depends on your energy level; regain energy by drinking coffee or sitting on the couch in the office
Once bills exceed the bank balance, the kitchen clears itself and the server resets to day 0
Bills do not reduce players' money or their ingredients before that point
the server reset is the main consequence
07
Hats, crates, and ranking up
Step
In short
Currency and stars both feed into progression.
All players start at rank 1. Completing actions in the restaurant earns ranking points. Higher ranks unlock currency rewards and chef hats. Hats can also come from crates bought through the menu.
- Earn ranking points serve dishes and complete actions in the kitchen to push your rank up
- Claim rank rewards check the Rewards button on the left side of the screen
- Buy a crate open the Menu, select 'buy crates', and purchase one
- Open it in inventory go to Inventory, select the crate, and open it to receive a hat
- Equip the hat click 'hats' in the menu, then click the hat you want to wear

Common questions
FAQDo I need to match exact measurements to get five stars from customers?
No. As long as every required ingredient for a recipe is present, customers will award a full five-star rating regardless of the exact amounts. The one situation where the ingredient itself matters is sugar on Candied Apple, which you do need to include.
How do I get five stars for the restaurant's overall rating?
You also need to mop the floor and use the cleaning cloth on the windows. The cleaning cloth is for windows only — spills on the floor do not affect the rating.
Can I play alone?
Yes — select Solo from the server list when you join. Solo is the same as Normal but only one player is allowed.
What happens if the restaurant goes bankrupt?
Once bills exceed the bank balance, the kitchen clears itself and the server resets back to day 0. Bills do not actually deduct from your personal currency or remove your ingredients before that point.
