Good game overall quite unique in its genre since it is here to develop its culinary talents French, Italian or just the pleasure of managing a simple coffee, tea room and a multitude of usual recipes that are found in real life in Paul bakery for example, Golden Apple, etc...
The economic management is quite thorough, rather realistic modeled on a daily accounting that the game then simulates x30 to make it at the end of the day, a monthly exercise balance. First shadow on the Board that I find quite a pity. 1 day in-game equals 30 days. 29 days simulated on the 30, 1 only in the month of playable. This being so, there is enough to do since a part can go up to 3009. 1000 years of play ^^ x 12 months = 12 000 x amodelbased 30mn of IRL game per day in-game.
This game will suffice for enthusiasts, real fans of cooking and lovers of coffee. It takes great pleasure to manage your small business, to evolve it. Unfortunately, without recommending it for as much as it suffers from many bugs. Example of a very frustrating situation: integrating the client file of a furnishing provider will not necessarily show its catalogue in the list of furniture available for purchase. When you know that you sometimes have to spend up to $20000 to get there...!
Another bug found: I buy ingredients for a particular employee. When I go in his inventory to check his stock.. The game crashes irreparably. Complete gel requiring to go through the Task Manager to close the game of strength and lose to the passage number of hours of play games in smoke.
Overall opinion so very mixed. To recommend? I put Yes for enthusiasts. Otherwise, no, at least it's subjective. It is up to you to forge your own opinion with "the opinions", too few, a nothing to say, surprised being the first French to write a review on steam!
Note in the passage that it only allows a resolution of 1024x768. In windowed, forget since it is impossible to adapt the window to the screen.

I had love the first version of this game, but in this version it lacks much detail compare to the first, in the first I was able to build the Interior worthy of the gods HA HA HA, but in this version too European, it is not possible to create beautiful scenery, there is always something that is wrong, but maybe it is because I am not such as to love European art, but everything seems vieu and ugly...
the story is good, interaction with people changes ideas, and the recipes and condiments are many, but in short, in this version all the scenery is ugly, all the buildings are ugly, have known, I would have kept the first version...
but hey, as it's European style, maybe this version will argue them, but this reminds me of one of the big problem of the video game industry, when it comes out several version, it does not keep what was in the first version (which made their game s liked), instead it throws everything in the trash and do anything else...
It would be good that it keeps what they have to give success and if it make a second version and well it only have to add the material, here I see what I'm seeing is that it is a real gachi, I will never understand, it's like it's supposed artist who believe it good because he combs a black line in a whiteboard and that's it, and there are Government imbecile who pays a million for a black line in a frame, Pfff, in short, I'm sorry to see a masterpiece destroyed, those the same who gave them glory , to replace everything with something simple, I do not know if the European restorant looks like this but it is clear that I do not have the taste to go eat in Europe now after playing this version HA HA Ah the game worked well on my side , but as the decoration and everything have been minimized in this version it is almost impossible to create something that one can appreciate, so I do not reccomended this game because it took away too much, I did not find any pleasure to build the restaurant because I do not know what to take since everything is ugly..., but this is just my taste and maybe that else will find something beautiful, just like those who find that a black line (that even a two year old can do) in a painting is worth a mill Dollard ion...
