NOTE: [Inside your restaurant] refers to the view where you can see the interior of you restaurant and [outside your restaurant] is the street.

USEFUL TIPS AND FACTS

1. To scroll around your restaurant and its surroundings, hold onto your left mouse button and drag it. [Inside the restaurant]
2. You can shake trees (found outside restaurants) for money by clicking on them. So go around to your friends' place and shake their trees too. [Inside the restaurant]
3. Earn extra cash by clearing up other people's trash. To clear trash, click on it with your mouse. [Inside the restaurant]
4. To avoid over-exhausting your employees when you leave the game for more than 3 hours, simply remove the door or place an item (such as a deco tree or mailbox) in front of your door. The place will be empty. [Inside your restaurant]
   
5. Feed your workers so they have max health then 'save and quit' before you go to sleep or head out for >5 hours. When you load the game again, you should get an earning of 2000 coins. Your employees may be lying there exhausted but you can fix that with a sandwich (Please note that you MUST 'save and quit' FIRST. Do not let it run on your computer while you are gone.)
6. Missed out on an ingredient cause you didn't get the daily food quiz question right? Visit here
   
7. You can distract the extra customers with arcade machines! They will play and then leave the restaurant without decreasing your popularity points
8. Apart from the arcade machine, sinks and toilets, the other deco items are currently not interactive so spend your money wisely on items that you need
   
9. Think twice before buying an item because although they may be cheap (such as windows), don't get them yet if you have your eye on something more pricey. Just save up since how you decorate the restaurant does not affect the number of customers or your popularity
10. Sometimes you may miss trash because it's concealed by another object. Simply click the "Redecorate" or "Street View" button, then return to your restaurant. The trash will have shuffled around to a different random spot, and you should probably be able to see it!
    
11. Try not to let the health of your workers go below 80% as their efficiency will decrease quite significantly.
12. Got no cleaner to clean toilets? Or are they ignoring the dirty toilets? Just remove the toilets by 'redecorating' then place them back! Good as new!
    

TIPS TO LEVEL UP QUICKLY

• Focus on leveling on ONE type of starter, main and dessert. Be open to trading so you can collect items required to level up your chosen specific meals. You will get more gourmet points when customers order dishes of greater level
  
• Arrange your tables in a square; where everyone is seated close to the cooks so the waiters do not have to waste time walking
• For the number of tables, base it on the number of employees you have. You will have to make your own judgment by adjusting the number of tables, seating arrangement but as a rough* guide:

With 1 cook, 1 waiter = 3 tables
With 2 cooks, 1 waiter = 6 tables
With 3 cooks, 1 waiter = 8 -9 tables
With 4 cooks, 2 waiters = 10 -12 tables

• If possible, try to find someone who wishes to level up dishes completely different from yours (of which require different ingredients to yours) so you can trade and help each other to advance!
• Want to tell your friends the items you need? Use your restaurant name to leave a message such as "Need Leeks and Potatoes". It's a simple, clever and effective way of saying what you want! - Can't decide whether to bar the door or leave your restaurant run while you sleep? Just let it run anyway (after you've logged out of course).
  
• Adding "temporary" friends may help you get more ingredients but please be aware that Facebook will shut your account down if you add too many friends within a short period of time.
• To delay the customers' journey to their tables, create a barrier by arranging dividers or any deco items from the doorway leading towards the dining area. This will allow more time for the waiters to clear the tables
