A farmers market from the 60s!

I'm back in business, and there's lots to discuss from the last couple of weeks.

There were two updates while I was away on a break. The first was a Farmers Market theme released on Wednesday 25th June:

Notification for Farmers Market update

The items added were the Organic Table, Organic Stool, Fresh Produce wall decoration, Farmers Market Stand, Vegetable Display, Organic wallpaper and Organic counter. It's all unlocked at level 72.

Reduced service at The Garlic Tree

Tomorrow Action Chef Lee and myself are heading to sunnier climbs for a couple of weeks, and the Swedes are being left in charge. They work hard in the Kitchen, but they're not known for interacting with the neighbours and leaving tips. However they have promised to try and send gifts.

In all seriousness, I'm going away on holiday tomorrow for a fortnight, and as a result there won't be any blog posts for a couple of weeks.

I'll still be playing Restaurant Story while away (it's an addiction!) but won't be visiting my neighbours to leave tips. Instead I'll be shoving some 2 day dishes in the oven and relying on food gifts to keep the customers from leaving in a huff.

Recipe ratings (5 hours)

Information in this post is correct as of Saturday 21st June 2014.

The assessment of the recipe ratings continue with the 5 hour dishes this week.

The 5 hour recipes form the smallest pool of contenders we've analysed so far, with 21 dishes up for evaluation. Three of these have been completely removed with another on an appliance no longer purchasable. There are also three 5 hour efforts on goal appliances.

This time I'm starting with the XP gain factor. There's a clear leader in this market, with the Chicken Parm Pie (Basic Oven) giving 111 XP for each batch.
