About This Demo

A limited seven-day Demo

This Demo covers up to seven business days and provides an introductory selection of ingredients, recipes and equipment upgrades. After closing the shop on Day 7, you can view your results and start the Demo again. The Demo includes only the first eight recipes. The full game continues beyond the first week with more business days, recipes, ingredients, equipment upgrades, shop customization and long-term progression.

Build your shop one hot bowl at a time

Put on your apron and run a cozy neighborhood malatang shop. Take each customer's order, collect their chosen ingredients and move between the ingredient shelves, preparation counter and stove before serving a freshly cooked bowl at their table. Begin with a newly opened shop, learn the daily business routine, manage purchases and stock, complete customer orders and review your income, costs and performance at the end of each day.

Pick, weigh, chop and cook

Follow the order ticket as you select the ingredients, drain the basket and check its weight. Pay attention to the requested broth, spice level and ingredients the customer wants left out. Prepare the ingredients at the chopping station, then add them to the pot in stages according to how long they need to cook. Stir the pot, control the heat, drain the cooked ingredients and add the final seasoning before serving.

There is more to the day than cooking

Running a malatang shop also means taking care of work beyond the stove:

• Purchase ingredients and restock the shelves
• Adjust menu prices as the business develops
• Make change and verify digital payments
• Check collection information for takeaway orders
• Clear tables and wash used dishes
• Review daily revenue, costs and business results

Plan your stock and spending carefully, avoid running out of important ingredients during service and decide whether your next investment should go toward supplies, equipment or the shop itself.

Experience seven days of shop growth

This Demo is limited to seven business days and a smaller selection of progression content:

• The Demo includes only the first eight recipes
• Only a selection of ingredients and early business systems is available
• Equipment upgrades and progression are limited to the Demo scope
• Your Demo results are shown after the end of Day 7
• You can restart the shop after finishing the Demo

The full game gradually unlocks a total of 16 recipes, along with more ingredients, business days, equipment upgrades, shop decorations and long-term objectives.

Create a shop you enjoy

As the business grows, improve the shop interior and record business milestones and in-game achievements. You can also combine hairstyles, outfits and aprons to customize your shopkeeper. The full game provides a more complete long-term progression system, allowing the shop to continue operating after the first week.

Work alone or share the shift

Play alone or run the same shop with up to four players in LAN co-op. Players can divide responsibilities such as restocking, selecting ingredients, preparing orders, cooking and handing items to one another. Co-op currently connects by entering the host's address. Steam friend invitations and automatic relay connections are not currently available. The session ends when the host leaves.

Language support

The current in-game interface supports Simplified Chinese. This English store description does not indicate that English is currently supported in the game.
