Cooking Fever – Hell’s Kitchen Restaurant Strategy Overview
Cooking Fever’s Hell’s Kitchen restaurant is located in the City and serves fine cuisine to impatient customers. This restaurant’s upgrades are a little different from the others; upgrades are less expensive in both coins and gems. An Automatic Tuna Cooker becomes available later in the game, which makes it easier to multitask. We were definitely expecting the restaurant to have steak and risotto like the TV show with perhaps a twist such as customer happiness based on how well it was cooked. And maybe a cameo from Gordon himself? Instead, we’re cooking Pan Seared Tuna coated in Sesame Seeds with sides such as Bok Choy, Noodles and Eggs and serving them to customers who are a little more grumpy than usual.
