How is yours? You keep it simple or shove as many recipes as you can in it?Try to appeal every type of guest or focus on just one? Is it fish or meat only? Do you keep exotic drinks?

Campaign; Raqaue & Deer Haunch
Sandbox; Herbal Tea & Hunter's Stew.

Admittedly I do have to start out in a different vein given my starting options. Nevertheless, I like things simple and my Inn a humble size...

Basically, you only need 1 for each dish, and 4 for each group. Sweet, cook/soup, snack, drink. Should be enough for you to make profit and fame.

Its depend on how you want to play.

There about a hundred of recipe you can learn. So you may stress you out very quick if you want to learn and use all of them.

Thank you. Do you know where can I find info on this? I knew there were differences between sweet and nirnal food, but soups and snacks?
How can I know if a recipe is a snack? How do you know you need a snack, a soup, a main dish and a dessert?
So many questions

Just give a little minding and reading you will know.

- The name always have "soup", and all soup made at cauldron
- Sweet usually come with honey/scream/sugar/berries in the ingredients.
- Snack usually have 2 ingredients, and make at kitchen table.
- Main dish have 4 ingredients and they always serve on a wooden plate.

People come for food will ask for main dish/soup.
People come for sweet food will ask for snack/sweet dish.

Only kitchen hand can make dish with 4 ingredients. When servant can make soup, and snack. Some time sweet food if they have 3 ingredients and below.

-some “sweets” just have nuts in them, but I figured it out bymyself what sweets food are, thank you
-the kitchen table is mainly used for desserts. My maids often use the cauldron to prepare snacks.
-many types of food use the wooden plate (we want plates!/joking)

But my real question was: who said that you need a snack, a soup, a main course and a dessert?
Random food+desserts is working just fine for me.

You can put 2 if you want.

Main Dish only make by Cook, and they are long to make. So you can have "poor service".
Soup is quick, but they may made by servant and they give "scrappy food"

Same with sweet food.
That why you want to put 4, so you can cover most of the cons.

That how i got "good service" and "the food is delicious" most of the time, when people are complaint about they getting too much "poor service" and "crappy food"

Noone ever uses the kitchen table in my game.
Are all two ingredient items snacks? Does the Kvass count as a drink or snack?

I would not trust what nieve says 100% (no offense nieve). I need to see this happening. Why should soup be scrap food? I am pretty sure it depends on your employees level skills, if the cooking action is ok or screwed or well done and on your stoves/table/oven quality.

You can click on said furniture, open its tab and then click on the cauldron image, from this tab you can order your cooks to cook things in advance and check every recipe the kitchen table is used for.
The unknown recipes will be black tho

Well, it will take me time to get decent-priced nuts on the world map. But it's something to bare in mind for that sweet food want I've seen crop up. PLUS, it just needs a pot like my Hunter's Stew.

There are no recipes there, and I've got quite a collection. I guess none are prepared there yet.

Because you don't have recipe that need kitchen table to make.

Kvass is a drink. I guess.

I have lvl 21 and 24 maid and most of my servant is already upgraded to maid, average lvl at 16.
And they are likely to give scrappy food when they do cook.

When i have 1 lvl 6 kitchenhand and 1 chief lvl 22. And i hadn't seen them making scrappy food.

And i have stove&oven that give bonus quality.
Cauldron don't have any that give quality bonus iirc.

They just give less, but still making crappy food sometime.

nods, for some reason, I've noticed some items in sandbox have qualities that they don't have in campaign mode. I don't know why. The cauldrons for example have different effects in sandbo but are all the same and effectless in campaign; or if they have an effect, it is not listed yet in the descriptions.
