You’re taking custom orders, building stacked melts, pressing them to oozy perfection, and cranking out a side of fries that’s crispy enough to make the picky “closers” tip big. Mess up the rhythm and you’ll be scraping burnt cheese off the press—again.

Order → Build → Grill → Fry
Customers roll up with super-specific requests: bread type, main cheeses, extras (bacon, tomato, onions, etc.), sauces, and a fry style with seasoning. The trick is flow. Pre-stage your bread and fillings, scan the queue, and line up two or three builds before you even touch the press. Drop fries the second a sandwich hits the grill so both finish together—freshness timing is everything for those build/grill/fry/service scores.

Stack like a kitchen nerd
Put melt-happy cheeses closer to the heat, trap slippery toppings between layers so the stack doesn’t slide, and keep weight balanced so the press browns evenly. Clean, centered slices boost presentation points—free money if you don’t rush.

Grill discipline = tips
Watch the doneness meters and listen for the sizzle to dip—flip once, not five times. A perfect crust beats a panic double-press every day. While the press works, bounce to fries: different cuts (curly, shoestring, wedges) want different dwell times. Season while they’re hot so it actually sticks.

Upgrades & events
Use tips for alarms, faster presses, and spicier sauce tools to shave seconds off tickets. Seasonal breads/cheeses/sauces keep menus fresh, and late-day “closers” judge harder—nail those for chunky bonuses. Mini-games between shifts aren’t just filler; they toss you décor and outfits that stretch patience bars and bump earnings.

Rush-hour pro tips
• Batch similar orders to avoid constant tool swaps.
• Sync cook times—fries should land the moment you plate the melt.
• Keep the knife centered for clean halves and easy presentation points.
