Better Restaurants Mod - DOWNLOAD
New and shiny restaurants have made their way to TS3! Taking your sim out to eat (or ordering in) is now much more exciting!
Buy a restaurant oven and set up shop.
Create shifts, choose working days, wages, uniforms, and hire employees from around town.
Hire employees and choose any combination of roles for them to fulfil. You can run a restaurant, or a bar, or both!
Don't worry if you can't fill all the roles. Where there is a sim missing, the existing employees will pick up the slack depending on their own assigned jobs. For example: chefs will take on waiter jobs when there are no waiters or greeters. Greeters will take on waiter jobs when there are no waiters.
Take your sim out solo or in groups.
If there's a worker at the podium, you can be seated according to availability (you can also ask about the menu and see how expensive things are if you want).
You'll also see NPCs dining. They'll join the podium queue, just like your active sim. If they have friends on the lot, they may automatically eat together.
If there's no podium, or greeter, sims can order direct from the menu.
Sims can order delivery from any open restaurant in town. The restaurant owner will receive all the money for this (except for delivery fees).
Or, if there's nothing open yet, order a Chinese takeaway instead.
The level of restaurant management is up to you. The more restaurant items you add to the lot, the more you'll have to account for the business finances.
Keep track of your costs and pray you can make a profit!
There are some optional features when it comes to financial management.
Buy a restaurant fridge: then it will cost your sim money to make food unless you keep the fridge stocked.
Buy a bar and hire a bartender: then it will cost your sim money to make drinks, but the restaurant will also keep the earnings.
Pay for advertising: hopefully the extra foot traffic makes up for the fee.
Sandy from ATS3 for generously allowing me to use her objects in my mods as always.
Ani Business as Unusual Oven which paved the way for this mod.
Sims 4 for some animations that I converted
EA Business and Usual oven, of course!
Shouldn't conflict with anything, not even other restaurant mods
Business as Usual Oven Store Content - most animations and props depend on this.
Island Paradise EP for some strings in the expenses dialog.
World Adventures - for Chinese delivery food & drinks while waiting for restaurant order
My Taxes and Benefits mod - Restaurant owners will pay higher business tax (once I update that mod).
My Boutique mod - used a couple of non-important animations.
Showtime - For snacking at oven interaction.
Seasons - For better 'call off work (sick)' functionality.
Late Night - for bartender stuff
