RESTAURANT EMPIRE<br />

customers that will appear in your restaurant from time to time. These ingredients<br />

are valuable, as they can make the difference between a cooking<br />

contest victory and failure. They can also be used in your regular restaurant<br />

operations to boost the ratings of recipes that require use of these special<br />

ingredients, strengthening the chef’s skills in a particular recipe or even<br />

boosting the ratings of a recipe temporarily to please a demanding customer.<br />

CHEF REPUTATION<br />

In time, your chefs may win cooking contests as well as improve their skills in<br />

certain recipes to the point where customers will feel extremely satisfied by the<br />

quality of the recipes being offered. When this occurs, your chef’s reputation<br />

will gradually increase. Customers like to eat in restaurants where reputable<br />

chefs work. Boost your chef’s reputation either by winning cooking contests, or<br />

improving their recipe skills.<br />

ASSIGNING CHEFS TO COOK SPECIFIC<br />

RECIPES<br />

Recipes do not improve over time; it’s the<br />

chef’s ability to prepare a recipe that can<br />

improve with dedicated practicing. The best<br />

way for chefs to improve their skills at a<br />

particular recipe is to assign them to prepare the recipe every time that<br />

recipe is ordered by a customer.<br />

To do so, first highlight the recipe. Then, left-click on the small chef icon that<br />

appears to the right of the recipe. Doing so will invoke the Chef & Ingredient<br />

Assignments interface. You can assign any chef working in that restaurant to<br />

prepare the recipe. If the chef has any relevant ingredients that can be used<br />

for the recipe, you can give your recipe that extra boost in taste by leftclicking<br />

on the checkboxes that appear to the right of the ingredient. The<br />

next time a customer orders that recipe, it<br />

will be the same chef that prepares it over<br />

and over again. As they say, practice makes<br />

perfect - the recipe quality will improve<br />

greatly over time. The other advantage of<br />

assigning chefs to cook specific recipes is<br />

you can ensure that the quality of your recipes<br />

is consistent, since it’s prepared by the<br />

same chef.<br />
