It seems a lot were tired and bored from Playfish’s Pet Society game on facebook because there was not much to do but rub your pet or shake trees for coins. So move away PS, enter RC, or Restaurant City, which seems to have more dimension, hence more excitement and playability.
here are a few tips and pointers for Restaurant City.
How can I get new ingredients?
- Daily Freebie
- Daily Quiz
- Visiting a Friend’s restaurant for the first time
How can I gain GP (Gourmet points) faster?
Simple. Just leave your restaurant city on, even if you’re not playing. This way, you’ll be sure to gain those extra points which you cannot get while you’re offline. This is also useful if you want to gain level faster.
Keep your employees happy!
Higher happiness = More productivity. If you’re monitoring the game, try to keep their satisfaction over 90% always.
Ways to gain more coin
Shake trees and pick up trash (you can only see trash if you aren’t managing your restaurant properly e.g. not picking up finished dishes). You aren’t guaranteed a coin every time you do it but it is still an easy way to gain some coins.
Make your layout more efficient
Layout your table and kitchen so it looks something like this. Why? Because it’s easier for waiters to move around. Waiters become more efficient as they can move around faster.
Make networks
Find people who are going for completely different styled menus to yours. This way, you can trade redundant items which may be useful for them and vice versa. It’s a win-win situation.
Focus on one recipe
Try and reach level 10 for each course. The higher the level, the more reputation you gain per customer. Make use of the trading feature in Restaurant city!
Meal level to thumbs up rating conversion
Level 1 = +1.0
Level 2 = +1.2
Level 3 = +1.4
Level 4 = +1.6
Level 5 = +1.8
Level 6 = +2.0
Level 7 = +2.2
Level 8 = +2.4
Level 9 = +2.6
Level10 = +2.8
Play in lower quality
There’s a button on the top left corner of the game which allows you to adjust the game quality. Changing your quality to low makes the game run much faster, hence each customer visit goes faster = more cash.
Create waiting chairs [credits to gelionie]
Waiting chair is a feature which allows you to increase the time in which a customer waits before leaving. This is useful as every customer who leaves disgruntled results in a decrease of your restaurant’s reputation. To make waiting chairs, read the following tips for higher success rate.
- Don’t place the waiting chairs next to the door.
- Don’t place too many chairs.
- Place one or two arcade machines to keep your customers entertained for a bit longer.
Make a maze
If your waiters are struggling to clear the dishes in time for new customers then make a maze. This increases the time the customer takes to reach the table and the table should have already been cleared by the time the customer reaches it.
Spend, Spend Spend
Spending gets you more Gourmet points and awards!
Cooking Stoves
Will Expensive stoves make me cook faster?
No, so stupid of playfish not to do this feature, and yet get players to spend for 4000 or 8000 stoves. Getting a more expensive cooking stove doesn’t mean your cooking will get faster.
the best way to power level is to minimize the distance traveled by the waiter as MUCH as possible (hence making him for efficient).
Level 1 to 4
Level 5
Level 6 to 7
Level 8 to 10
Level 11 to 13
You should know table layout works from this point onwards
