About The Game:
In this game, one player takes on the role of the GM, narrating and hosting the game while playing the character of The Chef. The remaining players act as the staff of the restaurant Chef is visiting, playing out their own dysfunctions and disasters. Over the course of each session, Chef arrives at a new restaurant with the aim to help the staff change their bad attitudes, repair their relationships, and overcome various problems to ensure a successful relaunch night.
Each session follows the same 5 act structure: Introduction, Chef Tries The Food, Chef Observes Service, Refurbishment, Relaunch Night. Throughout each session Chef will help this new set of characters will to come to terms with their problems and failings to have a sucessful relaunch night and a bright future for the restaurant.
This game was inspired by binge watching too many episodes of Kitchen Nightmares and draws inspiration from the Brindlewood Bay game engine.

About The System:
A 2d6 system where character abilities (or Moves) are not bound to a class or role.
Taking inspiration for the rules from Powered By The Apcolypse and Brindlewood Bay.
There are three general skills: Communication, Control, Cookery.
Characters begin with negative modifiers to these skills but as they grow and progress through the session they will be given various opportunities to improve them.
A rotating cast of player characters with each session and an ability to easily switch who is playing as the GM which makes it perfect for "one shot" sessions or enjoying changing characters each session.
