📖 About This Game

Gustav Germ, the famous gourmet critic, is whirling through the city and is once again distributing his coveted gourmet stars. He also visits the restaurant “Oily Oyster” – your chance to put your culinary skills to the test! But there is a problem: To prepare delicious dishes, there are only three cooking pots available that you have to share with the competition. ... and there’s that annoying pot lid that’s always in the way and prevents you from completing a recipe. Anyone who, despite all the hurdles, prepares their dishes reasonably correctly and receives the most gourmet stars will be personally awarded the golden toque by Gustav Germ. On your turn, take 1 out of 3 actions. You can either Draw 2 new ingredients, or Draw 2 new recipes, or Place 1 or 2 ingredients into a pot + move the pot lid! Pots are placed in the middle of the table and are available for everyone. As soon as one pot is filled with ingredients (amount = 6), everyone has the chance to show one of their recipes and collect points. The more matching ingredients someone has, the more points they get. Always keep an eye on the displayed menu! You can get even more points if you show the right type of recipe at the right moment. The game ends after someone has served 6 meals. The player with the most points wins the game!
