[1.01] Introduction
This is my tenth guide. Woot, milestone. This guide is about the great game
Restaurant Empire which is an underrated Sim game of running a restaurant and
several of them while placiating customers. Great fun. At the time of this
guide written, this games popularity has dropped to rock bottom, but there are
players out there.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Finally, all recipes finished. Its amazing how much space this took. I don't
expect the other sections to take too much more space. Might kill someone's
bandwidth.
Version 0.8 [19/5/07]
Been on the backburner for a while. Update needed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2.01] Chef
These guys are the lifeblood of your restaurant. Without them, you will have
no one to cook for you, and therefore, what business will you have. These
people are essential to make money. I suggest 1 chef to about 80 customers.
This is because if you are only going to have about 80, you don't have a
really hectic day. But this however, depends on your hours and when you open
and close. When you start to max out at over 400, you will need 4 chefs at
least to make sure you can fill out the orders.
Of course, the chefs have many skills. There are 12 main skills and that is :
French Appetizers
French Soups
French Main Courses
French Desserts
Italian Appetizers
Italian Soups
Italian Main Courses
Italian Desserts
American Appetizers
American Soups
American Main Courses
American Desserts
Well, how do you improve this? It is actually more complex than you think.
You see, each recipe a chef cooks will have a rating based on your chef's
skill in making it. Some chefs you hire are naturally skilled and therefore,
have a higher rating in that recipe. Other chefs will need some training
before they are ready to tackle it. However, the 12 bars above is the exact
combination of all recipes in that class. For example, if your chef has a low
skill in French Soups, that means, most, next to all, French Soups are low
in skill. That means that he is not skillful. Let me get a more simple meaning
of this.
The skills of the 12 are basically the rating of the chef's skill of that
specific category of recipes. The skill is made of all the recipes skill for
that chef put together. That means if he has a high rating, he may be skilled
in all but can still be weak in others and vice versa. Thats a confusing one.
The next thing is that chefs can purchase ingredients off special people. This
is done through a random event and this can be used when ordered to in a
specific recipe.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2.02] Captain
These people are the other people who need to be hired. These guys will be
the ones who will talk to your customers and give their bills. Customers will
only make their orders to Captains and they will get their bills from the
captain. However, the skill of the captain is important. If the skill is low,
customers will complain about the poor service. I mean, you aren't skilled if
you don't be nice to the customer. This can be done through staff training.
The more skilled the captain is, the less complaints drawn against them.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2.03] Server
An important addition to the business. These people are those who serve the
meals of the customers. They can carry up to 5 or so dishes and drinks from
the serving table. You must remember that like the captain, your skill of the
server will effect how your customers will judge him or her. This can be
fixed through staff training. When you see the complaint that Server such
and such was impolite, it means that he or she needs training. In the early
part of the game, they will draw many complaints.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2.04] Kitchen Porter
These are the dish monkeys of the game. These are those who wish the dishes
for you. You can either give them the sink to wash in, however, it has a
chance that the dish will break, moreso with a lower skill level than a
higher one. The dishwisher will not break dishes however. They will also move
dishes into the little kitchen elevator. They will move the dishes into the
dumb waiter and send the food upstairs so that the servers upstairs can deal
with it. You can tell you have to hire another porter when the customers start
to complain that their dishes are dirty. Then look at the amount of dirty
dishes that you have.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2.05] Receptionist
The last member of staff. These people are those who will greet and meet with
customers. Although they are not necessary to run the business, they are
important to have. This is because you run the chance that the customer will
just walk off when there is no receptionist. They have no idea where to go
so just go somewhere else. Also, skill level, once again plays a role. You
have a low skill, people will complain and so forth. You don't need a drill
on that again. One will be more than enough for a restaurant, however large
it is.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[3.01] Overview
Recipes are the heart and soul of any restaurant. Without any recipes, there
are no dishes and what are you going to sell your beloved customers? Anyway
this will lay out all recipes that are in the game with their ingredients,
time cost, default price, requirements and description. Rating and price are
not included because these aren't constant. Recipes such as French recipes -
appetizers will house only FULLY FRENCH appetizers, not the ones under several
cuisines. The layout will be in the following, what essential ingredients are
need and how much. Then the optional ingredients and how much they are needed.
Then the time need to make the dish, measured in clocks. What equipment it
requires and then the default price of the dish.

Optional Ingredients Quantity
