Staying In Your Restaurant

Your Gourmet Points will only increase if you are in your own restaurant when serving the meals. If you are not logged into the game, have another screen open like the redecorate screen, or are visiting a friend’s restaurant, your cash willincrease for those meals, but your Gourmet Points will not. Therefore, if you are wishing to level up, leaving your screen open to your restaurant is recommended.

Leveling Up Your Dishes

As you learn and level up dishes your Gourmet Points by dish served will increase by 0.2+ points, as shown below:

Level 1 Dish = 1.0GP
Level 2 Dish = 1.2GP
Level 3 Dish = 1.4Gp
Level 4 Dish = 1.6GP
Level 5 Dish = 1.8GP
Level 6 Dish = 2.0GP
Level 7 Dish = 2.2GP
Level 8 Dish = 2.4GP
Level 9 Dish = 2.6 GP
Level 10 Dish 2.8 GP

Remember that in order for you to start earning higher GP, you have to select your highest level dish from each category to be served (Starter, Main, Dessert). Focusing on one dish at a time in each category is the fastest way to start earning those lovely GP points. Always focus on the dish that you find it easiest to obtain ingredients for.
To make sure your highest level dish is being served:
- go to your menu
- look for the highest level dish, and click on it
- once the yellow rotating circle appears below it, your dish will start and continue to be served until you change it to another one (see picture below).

Once you have 3 level 10 dishes, then you can work on all other dishes if you’d like. But continue to serve your level 10 one until you have at least another level 10dish in the same category, this only applies if you would like to have a variety of dishes. Remember that you can only serve one dish from each category at a time. Then, you will be able to switch dishes as often as you’d like.

Gifting

Yes, gifting not only takes you one step closer to obtaining the Gifting Awards, it also gives you GP.

Here is the breakdown:
- Tiles
If you buy tiles, to gift to your friends, which you do not have in your inventory at the time, you will get the following GP increase:

Tiles worth 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15 & 18 Coins will give you 5 GP
Tiles worth 20, 25, 28 Coins will give you 6 GP
Tiles worth 40 Coins will give you 7 GP
Tiles worth 60 Coins will give you 8 GP

If the tiles are already in your inventory, you will get 5 GP for gifting them, regardless of their coin value.

Selling your tiles back to the register, not only gives a small refund, they also give you 2 GP points each time you sell one back, however price is not factor here. All tiles regardless of price will give you 2GP points.

- Items & Avatar Items
Gifting items gives you also a GP increase. Gifting an item worth the following amounts, but not in your inventory at the time gives you:

100 Coins = 10 GP
150 Coins = 12 GP
180 Coins = 14 GP
200 Coins = 15 GP
300 Coins = 20 GP
350 Coins = 22 GP
400 Coins = 25 GP
500 Coins = 30GP
550 Coins = 32 GP
600 Coins = 35 GP
650 Coins = 37 GP
700 Coins = 40 GP
750 Coins = 42 GP
800 Coins = 45 GP
850 Coins = 47 GP
900 Coins = 50 GP
1000+ Coins = 55 GP

Note: Any item worth over 1000 Coins will give you 55 GP. Remember that you must purchase the item while you are gifting it in order to get this GP.
If the item is already in your inventory you will only get 5 GP, regardless of the item coin value.

Buying Items

Buying items gives you also a GP increase. Buying an item worth the following amounts gives you:

100 Coins = 5 GP
150 Coins = 7 GP
180 Coins = 9 GP
200 Coins = 10 GP
300 Coins = 15 GP
350 Coins = 17 GP
400 Coins = 20 GP
500 Coins = 25GP
550 Coins = 27 GP
600 Coins = 30 GP
650 Coins = 32 GP
700 Coins = 35 GP
750 Coins = 37 GP
800 Coins = 40 GP
850 Coins = 42 GP
900 Coins = 45 GP
1000+ Coins = 50 GP

Basically, the only difference from buying while gifting is that when you are gifting, you get an extra 5 GP points added every time you send the gift to your friends.

Buying Tiles

Buying tiles is a little different. Some of the following tiles DO NOT give you any GP increase, others do.

Tiles worth 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15 & 18 Coins will NOT give you GP
Tiles worth 20, 25, 28 Coins will give you 1 GP
Tiles worth 40 Coins will give you 2 GP
Tiles worth 60 Coins will give you 3 GP

Selling Items Back To The Register

Selling your items back to the register, not only gives a 1/3 value refund, it also gives you 2 GP points each time you sell one item back. However price is not factor here. All items regardless of price will give you 2GP points. Same GP applies to all tiles regardless of theircoin value.

Picking Up Rubbish

Picking up garbage will give you one GP point per piece picked up. Currently your restaurant maximum garbage count is limited to 15 pieces daily. However you are able to pick up garbage while visiting friends, visiting the Gourmet Street, and rating restaurants at the Random Street. Any piece of garbage picked up here will give one GP point each time. Not to forget gets you closer to the Rubbish Awards.

Improving Your Layout

Remember that the closest the stoves are to your tables the less the waiters will have to walk making serving times faster. The faster they serve, the faster you earn.

Ingredients
Buying Ingredients does not give you GP.

Music
Buying CD’s does not give you GP.

Employees
Feeding your employees DOES NOT give you GP. However, feeding them makes them work faster if above 80%. The faster they work, the faster they serve, the faster you earn.

Holding on tight to your coins
Remember that by spending them you are one step closer to reaching your Spending Awards.
