Cooking Fever – Seafood Restaurant Strategy Guide

Level Guide

Use this level guide to help develop your playing strategy.

Number of Guests
– This number can be an indicator of how much people will order and
what they may be ordering. After Level 15, a low number of guests might
mean that they will be ordering multiple menu items or it could be an
indicator that there won’t be enough earnings to get 3 stars unless you
hand out treats or increase the price of the popular items. A high
number of guests might be an indicator that many guests will be just
ordering beverages or an add-on item instead of the main dishes.

First Orders
– These are the first food items that customers will be ordering when
the Level starts. There is a slight delay before the first customer
shows up, so use this information to prepare their orders in advance and
get a jump start on the level.

Popular Foods –
These are menu items that are ordered often during the level. Prepare
these items in advance and store them on your Tabletop or on warmers so
that they are ready to hand out as soon as they are ordered. Upgrading
these items before starting the level can also increase your level
earnings.

Noteworthy – This is extra information that might be helpful during the level.

Strategy and Upgrade Tips

Continually click on your Soup Stove machine throughout the level so that it is always refilling the Soup. Keep
it fully stocked at all times and click on it even when its already full. It doesn’t
refill itself automatically like the Juice Dispenser.
At Level 1, upgrade all Interior Upgrades to Level 1 that need only coins (television, speakers, tables, barstools, fan)
Lobster in the Pot task => Leave the lobster in the pot (yes, let it burn) for the entire level
Upgrade the Soup Pot to Level 2 before Level 22 if you have enough gems
Upgrade Interior Tables and Barstools to Level 1 by Level 20
Kitchen food upgrades only increase price by $1, so the majority of food items will need to be upgraded to at least Level 2 in order to get enough coins to pass a level with 3 stars
Complete the “Serve 4 mussels in 6 seconds” challenge on Level 19. Only cook one lobster and one octopus while filling all remaining plates and warmers with mussels. Let customers ordering mussels wait but server those wanting lobster and octopus. Once you have 4 customers waiting for mussels, serve them quickly.
