Have you noticed that the restaurant can be open for 2-4 hours without making any profit?? Employees just standing there while the customers are either seated or decide to sit down...I am journaling it in my next post but one day I lost 300.00 in wages with 0 meal sales!! Its highway robbery!!

Yes. It's happening to me right now. And I just hired another waitress to handle the influx of people because I bought another table. *sigh*
Wednesday (day 4)
Things are not going very well. Between the wages and the cost of the ingredients, I lost $103 today. I'm back in the negative. I'll have to close the restaurant for a day or two until I can come up with a solution to this problem.

I had that problem in the beginning you can mark up your profitability and close sooner to keep defraying the cost of wages... I think I am at 300% markup right now (5 star rest) but I would start at like 175% - also if you can spend the perk points on spending less for the supplies and take advantage of the tidy tippers perk that will help you out tremendously...
One more thing...if your cook is at a higher level in cooking make sure to switch out your menu to the higher level items as they will bring in more revenue.

Oh that's terrible! I'll stop whining about my waiter quitting.
@VIRTUALEE - Those are awesome ideas! Thanks. My cook is higher than the menu items. I'll switch them out. I'm also only charging a 125% markup cost for the meals.
@Rainydayz179 - Having someone quit is totally not fun either. You can whine all you like. lol

Great update @VIRTUALEE The tips are very helpful too. I noticed something while playing. The customers come more frequently during normal eating times. noon, 5pm-8pm. I haven't tried opening it up early. So I don't know when they might come for breakfast.
Sunday (day 8-B)
Before opening the cafe, I bulldozed the lot and set up it up again in the great out of doors.Rawla Simyth recovered well enough, from setting herself on fire, to open the restaurant for an evening shift. The food critic was there and he gave her a FIVE star rating! The overall rating is now at 4.5 stars.
Since it is 1AM in real life, Its time for me to say goodnight. Addicted much? Noooo, not me.

I noticed! I decided to see how it would perform without Skylathan being there, so I opened it for 8 hours from home. They only made like §400 all day.

I noticed! I decided to see how it would perform without Skylathan being there, so I opened it for 8 hours from home. They only made like §400 all day.

•Can the pre-built Maxis lots be used or are new builds required?
