### 4/5 — Cute and fun game but no data save

*2024-10-01*

This is a really fun game that doesn’t require you to do much. It’s so cute and relaxing to play but I wish I can save my progress and play on a different device. This would make it more convenient if you were to switch phones and you don’t have to start over since you saved your data.

### 4/5 — Love it for the most part!

*2023-03-06*

I think the game is great, I play a lot of sims and idle games and it’s a good one without a bunch of pop-up ads. However, I wish it didn’t ask me if I wanted to watch an ad every time I click on the promotion sign. I have to click it out of the screen and it gets annoying but I can ignore it. Other than that it’s awesome

### 4/5 — Great idle game!

*2023-02-09, version 1.8.16*

I enjoyed the game but I wish there was a codex or index of all the dishes and characters I unlocked

### 2/5 — Ad Pestering

*2023-01-17, version 1.8.16*

Instead of auto-playing ads, it constantly pops up dialog pestering you to watch them. Every 5-10 seconds. From all characters and places. Highly annoying.

### 5/5 — Great Game 😋

*2022-12-07, version 1.8.16*

I like this game everything is great about it :)

### 5/5 — Super fun and easy

*2022-10-12, version 1.8.16*

Great game to play when you have downtime easy

### 5/5 — Nice Game.

*2022-10-05*

Just downloaded the game and it makes me relax.

### 5/5 — Grill

*2022-08-19, version 1.8.16*

This game is so good and you don’t get ads

### 5/5 — Best out of best!

*2022-02-13, version 1.8.16*

A lot more different from other cooking games. Has nice background at the beginning. I wish there were more games like this!

### 5/5 — pretty enjoyable

*2022-02-02, version 1.8.16*

even though it’s simple the games pretty nice and better than i expected
