1. How do I earn more ingredients?
You receive a free daily ingredient for your first log in to Restaurant City each GMT day.
You earn one new ingredient for the first visit you make to each friend!
You also earn an ingredient for each daily quiz you answer correctly!
2. How do I earn more cash?
You earn cash from serving customers at your restaurant. However, you can also earn cash by picking up trash; and clicking on the trees around your restaurant and your friends’ restaurants to ‘bump’ them.
3. How do I hire employees and how do I fire them?
To hire one of your friends select the magnifying glass icon. Then just select the purple ‘Hire’ button of the friend you would like to hire!
To fire one of your friends, select that employee while in your restaurant view and then select the ‘Sack’ button. Note that you will be required to pay 200 cash as severance pay if you would like to sack a friend!
4. What is the advantage of leveling up a particular dish?
For each increase in level of a dish, you earn slightly more Gourmet Points when a customer has that dish. However, it is not one full point extra for each level, instead it is around an 0.2 Gourmet Point increase per level, so once you have a dish at level 2, most of the time you will still see just 1 Gourmet Point increase when serving it, but sometimes you will see a 2 Gourmet Point gain.
Also, the appearance of the dish being served improves as the dish is leveled up.
5. How do I learn and level up dishes?
To learn a dish, you need to gather all the ingredients required for that dish. Once you have the ingredients (which are displayed via the ‘Change Menu’ icon), select the ‘Change Menu’ icon and then select the pink ‘Learn’ button underneath your dish of choice. When you do this, those ingredients you gathered for that dish will be removed from your inventory, and you will now be able to serve the dish to your customers if you chose.
To level up any dish, you need to gather the same ingredients for that dish again, once you have all the ingredients required, again select the ‘Change Menu’ icon, find the dish you are wishing to level up, and then select blue ‘Level Up’ button.
After you have learnt or leveled up a particular dish and you wish to change what you are serving in your restaurant to the new dish, you need to click the picture of the dish you wish to serve (while in the ‘Change Menu’ screen). You will notice that a yellow circle then appears around the base of the dish to show that it is what you are currently serving!
6. Why aren’t my Gourmet Points increasing, even though my cash has from serving meals?
Your Gourmet Points will only increase if you are in your own restaurant when serving the meals. If you are not logged into the game, have another screen open like the redecorate screen, or are visiting a friend’s restaurant, your cash will increase for those meals, but your Gourmet Points will not. Therefore, if you are wishing to level up, leaving your screen open to your restaurant is recommended.
7. What is Popularity and what is the maximum Popularity you can achieve?
Popularity is the number shown by the thumbs up icon towards the top right of your screen. The higher this number is, the happier your customers have been, so the more customers will visit.
At the moment, the maximum Popularity is 50.
8. How do I stop my Popularity going down when I am not using the game?
If you are worried about your Popularity decreasing while you are not using the game, you can use the ‘Redecorate’ button to remove any doors on your restaurant while you are not using it. This will stop customers coming in and getting upset if you are resting your employees, or your employees need food or rest. You can also put a table, plant, etc. in front of your door(s) to stop customers coming in.
9. What happens when my employees’ health decreases?
When you employees health decreases, your employee starts to work slower. Once an employee’s health reaches zero, that employee will stop working altogether and will need food or rest before starting work again.
10. Do the more expensive stoves cook faster?
No, all stoves cook at the same speed currently.
11. How do I trade ingredients? (How does it work?)
From the Knowledge Base:
Quote:
| Firstly, you’ll need to enter your friend’s restaurant and choose the TRADE INGREDIENTS icon as shown below. You will then see the trading menu. Choose the ingredient you want from your friend and then choose another ingredient from yourself. Remember that trading only works if the ingredient that you’re trading is of the same level or higher level of stars than your friend’s.  |
If you want to save an ingredient for a future dish, and do not want anyone to be able to trade that ingredient away from you, you need to lock it. To lock a particular dish, select the ‘Change Menu’ icon and then click on the picture of the unlocked ingredient you wish to lock. Once an ingredient is locked you will see a padlock icon appear on top of its picture so that you know it is locked.
If you wish to unlock an ingredient (for example one you’ve decided you’d like your friends to be able to trade from you), again select the ‘Change Menu’ icon, and this time click the locked ingredient that you would like to unlock. You will notice that the padlock icon is removed!
13. How do you move floor tiles and wallpapers?
To move a floor tile or wallpaper, you need to replace it with another one. The old one will appear as available in your ‘Floor Tile’ or ‘Wallpaper’ section of your Redecorate icon to be placed where you wish.
14. Why do I have some ingredients that do not appear in any of the recipes?
These are most likely ingredients that are for future, yet-to-be-released recipes!
15. Why do some of my customers have red circles with stars around their feet?
These customers are your friends!
16. What do all the icons the customers show mean?
A green thumbs up icon means your customer was happy with their meal and service.
A red thumbs down icon means your customer was unhappy with the service. The icon that is shown prior to this will tell you more.
A seat icon means that there is no available seat in your restaurant.
A table icon with a plate on it means that the table the customer sat at needs to be cleared.
An empty table icon means your customer sat at a seat where there was no table available.
An icon showing a banana peel means that your restaurant has trash on the floor that you should clean up.
A clock icon means your service took too long.
17. What are the levels and upgrades available?
