Clean Your Restaurant

Interact with the stains on the floor and clean them with the mop. Pick up the trash bags, empty bottles, broken box, and other random junk. They will be added to your inventory. Go outside and throw it all in a junk container.

Pick up dirty dishes both outside and inside your cafe. Unload them at the sink and then scrub them clean. Go to your office and prepare a sign for the restaurant.

Tip

You will have limited plates and glasses at the start. Wash them before opening, and clean them as soon as customers are done eating, so they are ready for the next customer.

Making Cheese Platter

Open your recipe book and pin the recipe for Cheese Platter. Head outside and visit the grocery shop to get ingredients. Grab Parmesan, Gorgonzola, and Pecorino Romano.

Check out and return to your cafe. Store the ingredients in the fridge in the relevant compartments. Open your restaurant and return to the kitchen.

Grab your stored cheese, and take it to the cutting board. Take the plate and the sliced cheese to the assembly station. Serve the guest asking for a cheese platter on the tables. The guests will leave cash to grab and dirty dishes on the tables to clean.

Tips

• Close your restaurant if you don’t want any more guests to avoid the crowd. You will have to serve the guests already inside, so manage your load efficiently.
• You can also buy ingredients during your shift, but it’s better to store additional ingredients to store in the fridge to avoid visiting the grocery shop repeatedly.
• If you the same dish for multiple customers, practice multitasking, and slice or process all ingredients required to serve all of them at the same time. You can assemble these dishes together and serve quickly.
