The complete collectibles guide

Among the various methods of harvesting gems in Restaurant Story is through obtaining collectibles. There's also an opportunity to claim a number of other prizes, including some extra coins and XP.

There are five different collections to work on, with each containing four collectibles. When you have one of every collectible in a collection you can redeem the prize for that collection. By doing so the mastery meter, much like with recipes, moves up, and when you top up to the end of a level there's a gem reward.

So how do we get hold of all the collectibles? Some are much easier to discover than others, so let's go through each of the collections in turn, using information that has previously been published on the TeamLava Blog.

Before we get to that, let's take a look at the 20 strong list of decorations included in the Black Friday bonanza, with the prices they had for the majority of Black Friday:
