"Delicious: Emily's True Love" Walkthrough and Tips

click here for more games like this

Basics:

This game has an excellent tutorial, accessed from the main menu.  I recommend you to play it first if you've not played one of the Delicious games.

Customers order food and pay for it.  When a customer is waiting to pay you will see an image of bills and coins; the coins represent the tip.  The higher the customer happiness, the greater the tip.  Unfortunately, the customers don't have happiness levels shown by hearts next to them as many other games do, so you have to pay attention to customer facial expressions to know how they are feeling.  You will know if a customer has maximum happiness (is ecstatic) because there will be a heart next to his head.  If a customer is angry, his face becomes red.  If he becomes furious it is shown by a storm cloud; a furious customer needs to be served immediately or he will leave and you will be penalized -50.  .Customers will become impatient and pay lower tips if they have to wait in line behind other customers for too long.

When a customer arrives at the counter to pay, a thought bubble will show a stack of money and a stack of coins.  The coins are the tip amount; as a customer decreases in happiness the tip amount will decrease as well

As you play, you will get to know your customers and their level of patience.  The overweight customers (know as "Foodies") and the Senior customers have the most patience and can be made to wait so you can make combos.  Kids have the least patience.

Examples of Customers:

Customer with full happiness.

An unhappy customer (left) and an angry customer (right).

Doing the same action twice or three times in a row (chaining) will help you achieve higher scores.

Chains can be earned by having two or three orders prepared on your tray, and serving them to the customers without an interruption* to do another task.  Serving two customers gets you the "2 in a row" bonus of  +11, while serving three customers gets the "3 in a row" bonus of  +16.  Chaining can also occur when using the cash register.  When you check out two customers at the same time, you get a "2 Combo" for +10, three customers together give a "3 Combo' bonus of +20.  Note that this is not two customers in a row, but rather at the same time.  When customers are ready to pay, they will stand at the counter; wait until you have two or three waiting to pay and one click of the cash register will take care of them all at once.

*Serving customer orders can be interrupted by using the cash register, and the chain will not be broken.

Tip: Plan to serve complete orders only, as doing this will give you a bonus of +5 for a table of one, two or three customers, +10 for a table of four.

Certain days have events, which are tasks that need to be performed.  If there are multiple parts to the task, a +25 will be added for each completed part.  The fully completed event will give a +100 to your score.  If you don't complete the task, the level can still be won.

The mouse will appear in each level. He appears for a few seconds, and you'll know he is there by the chittery-mousy sound that happens each time he shows up. (Sometimes you can see the mouse hole in the scene.)  You will be rewarded +100 for clicking on him.  If you don't find him right away, he will continue to come back until the end of the level. You will earn a trophy for finding him in every level.  A screenshot has been provided for each level to show the mouse location.

Entertainers become available eventually in each restaurant.  To use an entertainer, click on the entertainer and then the table you want the entertainer to visit.  The entertainer will entertain for a few seconds and then that table will gain a heart; you will hear a particular sound that signals that happiness has been gained.  Using an entertainer will not prevent a customer from loosing a heart.

Tip: Using an entertainer is especially helpful when you have a table waiting at the cash register so that you can have two or three tables pay at the same time for the bonus.

---

Decorations:  Decorations can be purchased in the shop.  You earn $100 for completing the level with the target score and another $100 for completing it with an expert score.  There is a different shop for each restaurant.  There is a description for each decoration which will tell you what bonus is gained from it.  If you have the premium edition of the game, you will have two bonus decorations per level.  I advise you to save your decoration money during Emily's Place (Part 1), as you really won't need the decoration bonuses until more challenging levels. By waiting, you can save $1000,  and can earn the trophy Saving for the Future.

Tips on Trophies:

Making Evelyn Proud: This trophy is awarded for going five consecutive days without leaving dirty tables,  There appears to be some sort of glitch with this trophy, as it cannot be earned during the first restaurant (Emily's Place). However, if you keep the tables clean in the second restaurant (Carmen's Comedor), you will be able to earn it.

Let Me Entertain You: This trophy is earned for entertaining every seated customer during a day.  However, it can only be earned if you increase the happiness of your customers with the entertainer.  This means that if you are playing on the beginner difficulty (when all customers arrive with full happiness) you won't be able to earn this trophy.

Women's Intuition: This is for having the customer's order on your tray before they order it.  The trophy says "two times in a row", but it actually means just doing it twice; it doesn't have to be for two customer's in a row.  I completed this on the second level by having the two deserts and the drink on my tray and eventually I was right for two customers.

Trying for Target: If you normally achieve expert, getting this trophy can be frustrating.  Here is what I did to win it: Play on the advanced setting.  Don't find the mouse, as it gives +100,  Don't serve full orders (serve in two trips), as full orders give a +5 bonus.  Don't make combos, as they give a score bonus. 

Shopping Spree: The only way to earn enough decoration money to be able to purchase all the decoration items and achieve this trophy is to finish each level on expert.

Emily's Place


Emily's Place, Day 1
Emily will have to clean tables today.  To do so, click on the table and she will walk to it and clean it. Customers won't sit at a dirty table, so you will need to keep them clean to get more customers.
Tip: You don't have to wait until the customers have left to clean a table.  An exclamation point will appear over the table when a customer goes to check out, leaving the others at the table.  As soon as the exclamation point appears, you can clean the tables--even if there are still customers seated at the table.

To make a sandwich, click on each ingredient in order.

Tip: This is a good level to get the Sweet Tooth trophy, as it's not a busy level.  Fill your tray with cheesecake or cookies a total of ten times.  Click on the items on your tray that you don't need to empty the tray.

Mouse location:

---

Emily's Place, Day 2
Your task for this level is to clean the four messes.  Click on the exclamation point and Emily will walk to the mess and begin to clean it.  You can interrupt the cleaning to do other tasks, then click on the mess again to return Emily to it.
Tip: Clean the table first so that it will be available for customers.

Emily will have to clean the tables again today.

Sandwiches now have a choice of three toppings, so pay close attention to the customer's order.

Tip: Since it's not very busy, this is a good level to earn the Oops I Did It Again trophy, by deleting 20 items from your tray--but you will have to win the level with expert to get the trophy.
Note: You won't get the notification for the Oops I Did It Again trophy until the level is completed.
Note: I tried to earn this trophy on the Emily's Place, Day 1, and was unable to do so.

Mouse location:

---

Emily's Place, Day 3
Evelyn is now available to clean tables.

There are now four topping choices for the sandwich, so you'll need to pay close attention to the customer's order.

Today's task is to read the letter.  You will have to click on the letter and Emily will read part of it.  You will need to do this a total for five times.

Mouse location:

---

Emily's Place, Day 4
Peppers are now available.  They will need to be picked from the plant beside the door.  To do so, click on each individual pepper.  The peppers will regrow over time.  You can stack up to nine peppers.  To bake a pepper, click on the pepper, then the rice.  It will move to the oven. Don't wait too long or the pepper will burn.

Tip: If you have purchased the pepper upgrade, this is a good level to earn the Ring the Bell trophy as this level is still easy to complete.  Wait until the pepper plant has all five peppers, then pick it empty ten times.  You will just have time to pick the last ones if you make your final customer wait.  You do not have to have empty space on your tray, just pick the peppers.

Mouse location:

Emily's Place, Day 5
Two types of rice are available now.  They can look similar in color in an order bubble, but the shape is different as well, which will help you distinguish between them.

Your task today is to feed Jimmy all he requests, and to do so before the meter runs out.  Including his food in a chain does not contribute to the bonus.

Mouse location:

Emily's Place, Day 6

Francios is available as an entertainer now.   To use an entertainer, click on the entertainer and then the table you want the entertainer to visit.  The entertainer will entertain for a few seconds and then that table will gain a happiness level; you will hear a particular sound that signals that happiness has been gained.  Using an entertainer will not prevent a customer from loosing happiness.

Tip: As this level is not as busy as it will be later in the game, this is a good level to earn the Let Me Entertain You trophy for entertaining all the seated customers in a day.  Just don't forget to entertain the customers at the counter as well.  However, this trophy can only be earned if you increase the happiness of your customers with the entertainer.  This means that if you are playing on the beginner difficulty (when all customers arrive with full happiness) you won't be able to earn this trophy.

The first "pourable" food is introduced in this level.  Click on the coffee machine and then click again when the meter needle is in the green portion.  If you click too late, the coffee will spill and you'll have to start again.  You can walk away from the coffee machine while it is pouring and it won't spill over as long as you click the meter in time.

Tip: This is a good level to earn the Serving Charcoal trophy.  This is earned by burning ten dishes but still achieving an expert score.  The best way to do this is to keep making rice and fries and letting them burn.  Keep a count of how many you are burning, as the trophy won't be awarded until the very end of the level after the score tallies.
