Look how happy this little dude is that he’s managed to prepare this lovely meal! Trust me though, there was almost certainly an epic amount of rage and gnashing of teeth to get there though.

As such, this requires the sort of micro-management that makes red-faced, screaming Gordon Ramsey level culinary tyrants from even the most meek and amiable members of your friends and family.

The more dishes you prepare the more score you get, which in turn is converted into a star rating that lets you proceed on through the game.
