About

It’s time to grab the apron - Your culinary journey begins in a small but promising restaurant where every day challenges you to improve, experiment, and develop your own cooking style. Learn the secrets of ingredients, refine your techniques, and craft plates that win over guests, each with their own moods, quirks, and expectations. Your creativity decides whether they leave impressed or furious.

Feeling like you need a hand? Call in a friend. Multiplayer co-op lets your buddies jump straight into your kitchen with their gear and know-how. Share the workload, split the profits, or head into sandbox mode to relax and mess around. Cook whatever you want, try ridiculous experiments, test recipes, or just start a legendary food fight. It is your kitchen, your chaos.
Tired of following the same instructions again and again? Break the rules and create something new. Start with dozens of base recipes and transform them into signature dishes. Adjust ingredients, tweak flavors, experiment with techniques, and discover combinations your customers will crave. Need inspiration? Collect a wide selection of in-game recipes inspired by everyday meals from around the world. Each one is easy to customize for any playstyle.

Cooking is only half of the challenge. Keep your shelves stocked, prep ingredients before service, and maintain clean, organized stations. Use professional equipment, tune temperatures, manage timing, and avoid disasters like burnt steaks or frozen centers. Pick the perfect cuts, keep dishes warm, and plate everything with style, from simple meals to high-end masterpieces. And yes, do not forget the sauce.
As you gain experience and prestige, you unlock new skills, perks, and advanced techniques that push your abilities even further. Take on specialized challenges from the International Academy of Master Chefs, the Concorde Culinaire, to earn mastery seals and climb toward true culinary excellence. Learn what your customers really want, create dishes with unique qualities, and transform your kitchen into a world-class culinary laboratory.

After a long service, unwind in your personal apartment. Experiment freely, cook purely for fun, or simply enjoy a well-earned meal. Give your chef a unique personality by changing hairstyles, outfits, tattoos, and more. Show off your style both in and out of the kitchen.
Bad day? Annoying customers? A dish gone horribly wrong? Let it out. Smash, burn, throw things, or blow off steam purely for the satisfaction of it. Nothing clears the mind quite like making a huge mess after a long day.
This is your safe place for kitchen-approved destruction.

It really is a good game dont know why people are complaining so much for a multiplayer experience it is good there is a good set of bugs I will agree there but nothing a quick restart won't fix and improvements are coming have been having a blast hope to see a ton of stuff be added in the future some of the most fun I have had in a cooking sim with my girlfriend if you want the detailed experience go to cooking sim if you want a fun experience with a friend this is the one!
Nekem ez jobban tetszik mint az első rész, jobbak lettek a főzési mechanikák. Tetszik, hogy a receptkönyvben kb bármilyen étel elkészítését össze lehet állítani (nyílván a szükséges hozzávalok megléte szükséges a játékban, de ha ez megvan akkor csak a képzeleted szab határt). Egyedül az idő beállításán lehetne változtatni, hogy a receptben se csak másodpercekben hanem perc és másodpercben szerepeljen vagy lehet, hogy így is be lehet valahogy állítani a játékot, csak még nem jöttem rá.
this game at its released was a huge mess. bugs, untold tutorials, and so on. i remembered i was stuck in the tutorial not being able to advance. But, over the course of a few weeks, patches and updates are being released, and now it's playable. in fact, i realized there's more i can do, although it's still a little clunky sometimes. I have cooking simulator 1 and DLCs and i love them generally, (although sushi DLC is such a bummer) and i think CS2 for now is playable with significant less bugs. The tutorial is still slightly unclear with certain recipes, and i was slightly confused that i got free stuff after the tutorial (but i needed some of the equipment like a mixer for soup during the tutorial. I wish we can have a clear list of cooking equipment needed while shopping, besides the ingredients inventory) I havent even try this game on my ROG ally, since i have a feeling that playing on controller will be another nightmare.. But this game deserves a chance. i will wait for the time where my friends are confident enough to buy this game so i can play with them.
Не удавалось подключиться к кооперативному режиму. На след день заработало, выбрали сервер Турции. Много багов. Оптимизация никакая. Приходится перезапускать игру, т.к. 7-15 фпс жестко. Но играть возможно. Затягивает
jogo está extremamente CRU, em poucas horas vc já fica sem objetivo claro no jogo, principalmente jogando coop.
al momento sembra molto penalizzante il NON poter eliminare le ricette inventate, si crea confusione su confusione delle ricette obsolete o prove di cucina, è da sistemare sicuramente.
Buggy game! Few days in game is okay but once you get to a certain level/progress you get these bugs (Ingredients disappearing/ Item unable to pick up/ Pans and pots can't be put on stove/ Ovens and stove can't be use, Invisible items blocking on the table, etc.). You'll just waste your time. Not worth the price for this half-assed game. Buggy cooking simulator.
Good god does this game need a TON of work. They gave CS1 fans the multiplayer that they asked for but then removed absolutely everything that made up the reasons that they asked for it in the first place. Maybe those things will come back later? Doubtful. Absolutely everything is clunky, the entire experience feels rushed but also given up on at the same time. Overall very disappointing.
I love this gameee , just one thing add mexican food and bakery
