You’d suppose given the numerous hours we have spent watching Gordon Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares that we might have picked up a factor or two about operating a profitable restaurant. Alas, it appears the one factor we have picked up is his proclivity for foul-mouthed tirades, which we found a mere couple of hours into Chef Life: A Restaurant Simulator.
Our opening night time on the restaurant began nicely. We have been flipping meat, chopping greens. It was a veritable cook-fest. However we quickly misplaced observe, one dish after one other turning into inedible, barely recognisable gloop, and our prospects have been left hungry and irritated. How do you burn a salad?
Regardless of a barely unpolished presentation, Chef Life might be fairly a little bit of enjoyable. You begin the day ordering produce and you’ll then prep for the night’s service if you’d like. You choose the dishes which are on the menu, after which when the doorways open you get cooking.
Cooking is principally right down to time administration and a few actions utilizing the precise analogue stick. You stir by turning it in a round movement, and it’s essential to do this earlier than the stir bar fills up or the sauce will follow the pan. Equally, it’s essential to flip the steak earlier than one aspect burns, and it’s essential to get these chips out of the deep fats fryer earlier than they find yourself crispy and hole like those Nanna used to make.
Do nicely and everyone seems to be glad they usually may depart ideas. You possibly can spend your hard-earned coin on new cooking gear, décor on your bistro, furnishings, that form of factor. As you progress, you be taught new recipes, and you’ll add new prospers to outdated ones. Ultimately you get extra cooks you may lead that will help you out. And for those who’re actually struggling there’s choices to decrease the issue considerably, which makes the sport fairly chilled out if that is extra your factor.
