"Delicious: Emily's New Beginning" Walkthrough and Tips



Basics:
Delicious: Emily's New Beginning is one of the "Delicious" series of time management game.  A customer's order will appear in a thought balloon over his head, and you play as Emily, serving the customer by preparing the food.  For most items, this simple requires clicking on the corresponding food; other food may require several steps.  When you encounter a new food that requires more than just one click to prepare it, the game, using a large arrow, will walk you through preparing the item for the first time.  This game offers an excellent tutorial before the first level; if this is your first time playing a Delicious game, I recommend playing through the tutorial.

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.  You will know the customer's happiness level by the amount of hearts shown while ordering or waiting to pay, with five hearts being maximum happiness.  You will know when a customer is about to loose a heart, as the heart will begin to blink.  Hearts can be restored by using entertainers or by a visit from Paige (more about both later).  For customer happiness between ecstatic and furious, you will have to pay attention to customer facial expressions.

There are several types of customers, with each restaurant having four different types.  When a customer type is encountered for the first time, you will see an information sheet about that type (see image below), telling about the patience and tip levels and how this customer reacts to Paige.  This information will help you know which customers you can make wait, which you want to keep happiest for highest tips and when you can let Paige roam.
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 and college kids ("Hipsters")  have the least patience.


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.

At the beginning of each level, you can choose what to serve in your menu (see example below).  You will be shown what percentage of each customer type is expected, and you pick your items accordingly.  If a customer orders an item that is preferred, an additional tip will be given.

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.


Paige is Emily's daughter.  She has a corner in each restaurant, where she will sit and play with her toys.  When she becomes bored, she will begin to wander around the restaurant.  If a customer likes Paige, they will gain a heart from her visit; if they do not like Paige, they will loose a heart.  (Her influence will be shown on the score at the end of the level; see below.) While Paige is visiting a table, they will pause what they are doing to look at her, making it take longer to decide what to order or to finish the meal.  You can not direct Paige to visit a certain table, and she doesn't always follow the same direction when roaming the restaurant. When Paige begins to wander, simply click on her and Emily will pick her up and return her to her spot.  Paige has a happiness meter, and when it runs out she will begin to cry.  Toys to keep Paige occupied can be purchased in the restaurant store.



Carl 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. 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.  A screenshot has been provided for each level to show Carl's location.

Shop Item money is earned for completing the level, with additional amounts earned for achieving two or three stars.  This money is used to by upgrades, items for Paige and entertainers.
Tip: The first restaurant can be successfully completed without upgrades, so use your money to buy Paige's toy upgrades first.  Once purchased, these toys last through the entire game and do not need to be purchased again in later restaurants.

Entertainers can be purchased in the shop item store.  Once purchased, the entertainer remains for all the levels in that restaurant.  A new entertainer is available for each restaurant.  To use an entertainer, click on the entertainer and then the table you want the entertainer to visit.  The entertainer will play for a few seconds and then that table will gain a heart.  This 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.
Tip:  Unlike many of the Delicious games, the entertainers in Emily's New Beginning take a long time to entertain, making it not as valuable a purchase as it is in other games.
Note:  Using an entertainer will not prevent a customer from loosing a heart.

There are 18 Memorable Moments to be collected.  These happen in the story scenes before and after the game levels.  A camera will appear and you simply click on the camera to capture the moment.  You can view them in the scrapbook.




Trophies:
Trophies, in the form of characters in a picture, can be earned for different achievements.  Most of the trophies are self explanatory from their description and most can be earned simply by playing all the way through the game on the normal setting.


Brigid is earned when, you have to have played with every food item in the game.  If you have not earned this by the time you complete the game, go to the last level of each restaurant and choose the opposite of every food you used previously for that level.

To earn the Foodies you need to have a "3 customer bonus two times in a row".  To do this, have three customers at your counter and check them out all together, then do it again immediately with the next three customers.  You may need to use the entertainer to keep your customers from getting angry and leaving while you are doing this.

To get Julie, the violinist, you need to have purchased every item in all of the item shops.  To be able to do this, you have to have achieved all three stars on all levels so that you can earn enough money to buy all the shop items.

For tips on Sid the cleaner, see level 1-3.

For Edward ("knock, knock") you need to knock three times on the door in the Patio restaurant.






Walkthrough:
















Level 1-1

In this level you have only three items to prepare.  The hamburger is made by clicking on each piece individually.  As the levels progress, there will be more parts to it.

Emily will have to clean her own tables in this and the next level.  To do so, simply click on the dirty table and Emily will walk to it and clean it.  Customers will not sit at a dirty table, so you much clean them 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.

Mouse location:






























Level 1-2
Mouse location:




























Level 1-3
Sid the cleaner appears on this level.  To have him clean the table, simply click on the dirty table and he will go and clean it.

Your hamburger or bagel now has another ingredient option, so pay attention to the customer's order.

This level contains your first task (see below).  For Emily to prepare the decoration, simply click on the exclamation point.  You will see the percentage rise as she works on it.  Clicking on food or the register will interrupt Emily and she will do the other task.  Click back on the decoration for her to return to it.
Tip: have Emily work on the decorations in between customers and while you are waiting on multiple customers to make a chain.




















In this level you will have to pick fruit to make pies.  Picking the fruit from the tree (see arrow in screenshot) will cause it to disappear; it will slowly grow back.  You can have a stack of seven at a time.  To make a pie, click first the pie crust, then the fruit beside it.  The pie will automatically go into the oven. The oven will beep when the pie is done.  Be quick to get it, or the pie will burn.

Tip: This is a good level to unlock Sid the Cleaner trophy, for burning ten items but still completing the level with three stars.

Mouse location:

Yet still not showing the character for by all shop items

    1. I remember having a tougher time on that one, too. Have you bought all the upgrades yet?

      Delete
    2. Yes😔but I still cannot reach 3 stars

      Delete
    3. Sorry for taking so long to reply. You've probably gotten three stars by now, but I had never played this game on my current laptop, so I had to play through from the beginning, and I was playing some other games, too. It took me two tries to get three stars, and even then, I was only 20 over the three star score. It's a busy, tough level!

      Here's what I did to get three stars:
      -Set the menu so that all the kid-preferred items are chosen. Their hearts go down so quickly, that having the bonus silver coins for an item here and there is really important.
      -Have all the upgrades.
      -Don't bother using the entertainer. She takes too long to raise the mood and it's just a waste of time.
      -Never make the kids wait so that you can get a chain. Serve/check out immediately, no matter what, including the ones in Santa's lap.
      -You can let the farmers wait to make chains; they have a pretty good amount of patience.
      -Make sure you get the mouse. That 100 points comes in handy!
      -Keep an eye on Paige. The farmers don't like her, so if she walks to them, they'll loose a heart, plus you'll loose the time it takes to walk over to her and return her to her mat.

      I hope these suggestions make sense and that they will help you!
