These cute little Facebook games seem to be taking up all my free and not-so-free time lately. My house is in shambles and my work is piling up. But I’ve finally reached level 26 in FarmVille and my restaurant in Restaurant City is coming along quite nicely.

Restaurant City is the latest Facebook game that has become my obsession of the week. JoeGamer introduced me to it just two days ago. I do have to admit that it is a very low maintenance game so far. Of course, all of these games are somewhat low maintenance in the lower levels. Just leave the game running to earn XP. As long as your employees are fed, then they will work and you earn money even after you close out of the game.  In just two short days, I’ve already picked up a few Restaurant City tips that are worth repeating.

Have more stoves than waiters. It takes longer to cook than to serve the food, so if you have more stoves more food can be cooked at one time.

Build a maze to your seating since it will take longer for customers to reach a seat. This will give your waiters a little extra time and hopefully keep customer loss at a minimum.

Visit your all of your neighbors at least once since you get a free ingredient for the first visit. If you are missing ingredients for a recipe, check your neighbors to see if they have any open items for trade since you can then trade immediately without having to wait on locked trades.

Restaurant City is fun and a very low stress game. Just check in on your employees to keep them fed and happy. You can also close your restaurant by putting a chair or an object in front of the door in case you won’t be playing for a few days.
