Chef al Mando

Chef al Mando

Plan your kitchen. Direct each service.

A 2D kitchen management simulation where you run eight services with limited ingredients and staff. Results come from the plan you make before service and the calls you make during it, not from fast tapping.

Coming to the App Store and Google Play.

The Chef al Mando app icon: three grilled pieces and a tomato in a copper pan.

Every service has three steps

  1. 1Preparation

    Buy ingredients, choose the prep to make ahead, place stations, and assign staff duties. Set a default priority for each menu item, and new orders use it.

  2. 2Service

    A service runs for 300 seconds. Change order priorities or cancel orders, and pause at any time to look over the kitchen. Play at 1x, 2x, or 4x speed.

  3. 3Closing analysis

    After closing, review profit, served orders, waste, and the causes of delays. If you missed the goal, change your preparation and try the same service again.

Every wait shows its reason

When an order or an employee is waiting, the game shows why. The closing analysis adds up the waiting time for each reason.

Four kinds of station run the kitchen

Staff take ingredients from storage, prep and cook them at the cold and hot stations, and send dishes out at the pass. In later services, orders arrive in rushes and fixed stations that cannot move constrain your routes.
