I never heard of Restaurant City until recently when a colleague of mine introduced them to me. Initially I thought they were nothing but a bunch of time waster. As I dwell deeper into the game, I found underlying strategy that many first timer would ignore.

For example, table placement together and limiting your waiter’s movement can increase your service productivity. Another thing you would think that small things like a video game arcade would actually increase the waiting time of your customer while your staff would fill out the rush hour order.

The developer also spend time to make sure you have a sense of community in the game, therefore, certain ingredient that is used to increase your popularity, has to be traded with your friends.

The game’s friendly kid graphics is nothing to be sneered at. Handling your employee making them either a cleaner, waiter or a cook require a lot more thinking of how you want to develop your restaurant.

Clearly this is one of my favorite web game for the moment because of its simplicity graphics and depth of game play at the same time.
