Is there a way to take specific recipe off from the menu?

Saw in a review that a day could be ruined by multiple people waiting around for a non-existent item, is this what causes that nonsense?

That, and no game over for failing to make a payment are keeping me from purchasing.

If you have a fridge in your bedroom you can put ingredients in that you don't want to use for the day and people wont ask for them. That's how I've avoided that so far.

Non existing item? At the beginning you have customers asking for things you can't cook, but this was actually only for the first 1-2days and then you have all ingridients you need to cook the available recipes. they will never ask anything you can't cook. So either it was because tutorial or a bug, but I never after the first 2 days had any issues with not having something they want.

Later ingame, as mentioned above you get the fridge and can just put some items in there to save for a later use.

To be clear, you are sent a 'personal' fridge in the mail after upgrading the restaurant 3 times (to level 4). Once you place it in the bedroom, you can store ingredients there which will not be available for customers to order.

You should really just get this immediately, or like day 2. There are a bunch of other letters in the mail you get about basic ♥♥♥♥ that should also be like day 2 or 3.

Tell me you have no clue about creating games without telling me you have no clue about creating games. Name one game that was successful by dropping all of the tutorials, informations, tips and game mechanics almost instantly on the player, i already tell you that every game made like that is literally getting dunked in reviews hard for being a wall of text and hours of tutorials that dont let you to play. No one likes to get stuck for hours in a tutorial especially if they cant skip it.

On the flip side giving you a tutorial on a mechanic you already had to work out yourself is pointless, my response whenever it happens is gee thanks I could have used that info an hour ago.

I understand your point that info dump is bad and I agree, however they have the journal all that info could be in there ready for you to read in your own time. MH games are blasted for not giving player info yet theres a hunters notes with all that info in at least in GEN 5.

If you want to forgo tutorials there needs to be enough context clues for the player to work something out.

An example of poor design is you go to the carpenter to upgrade the restaurant and buy furniture, to upgrade cooking stands you have to interact with them and you upgrade them yourself. The game told me this three in game days after I figured it out.

A simple solution would have been to have the upgrade button flash the first time you access the item, there we go now I know its there and there was 0 tutorial stopping game play

Watched a review where they never mentioned this, is this feature (that should really just be automatic) an easy miss then?

I don't think players would miss it because upgrading the restaurant is a natural part of progression. It will just take a lot longer because they aren't told about it, and they will not actively work towards unlocking it. I read a review posted on a gaming website where the reviewer did not know that it existed, and complained that there was no way to save ingredients for side quests.

Incidentally: You can partially submit items to a quest. So give them 2 one day, then 3 and so on. It doesn't fail the quest if you don't submit it all at once.

I discovered this after getting curious.

Wondering the same, I have ingredients for several level 2 dishes, but no, everyone seems to want just a boiled egg or plain rice that sells for nothing Even in a day where cheese is supposed to be "trendy" everyone ordered plain boiled or baked potatoes instead of the one with cheese, so I'm a bit annoyed, do the trend days even do anything?

[Kude]

you could in theory force it by removing other cooking stations and only stocking ingredients for the stuff you want them eating

"Everyone" as in children, you probably used decor to boost how many children come and so you complian you only sell cheapest dishes. Elders buy usually the most expensive dishes and since they lose patience very slowly they give the highest tips.

No, by everyone I mean everyone that comes into the shop, even the dragon people and the police and the old folk only order those simple dishes instead of the more expensive ones, even though I have the materials and the stations are upgraded.
