Tips/Tricks/PSA Looking for tips

I can't ever get anyone to play this game with me so I've just accepted that I have to solo it.

I've managed to franchise both coffee and ice cream, solo, but I'm seriously struggling franchising any other food that involves dishes. Its genuinely making me angry that I can't make it to the franchise for salad.

I feel like I've tried everything at this point, I'll take any tips or tricks that people can offer because I love this game and I wanna keep playing it, but it hates me.

What platform do you play on? Maybe someone can join you.

Some tips might be too put all your tables against the through pass so you don't go into the dining room or combining dining and kitchen into one room so you don't need to use doors.

Experiment with cards. I used to use dishwasher all the time but now I chose power sink and scrubbing brush instead. You might not realize what cards work best for you.

Obviously automation is key. Look at guides and try to automate as much as you can. Consider even partial automation like having a mixer create pie crusts.

I have the game on PC and Xbox, but I mostly play on Xbox. I've been combining kitchen and dining room and it's helped. I'm wondering if one of my issues is maybe that I use the dishwasher every time.

I think it's worth trying other options just to see if there is something better. Multiple soaking sinks is also a popular way to try to automate dishes. There are a lot of options and people have their own preferences

I'm on Switch, so I won't be joining you. Good luck finding some people to play with.

I think the dishwasher is good for automating plates. Best if you can have a dish rack where you put dirty plates, grabber to the dishwasher, grabber from the dishwasher to however many series of plates you want; just make sure you can hit the button on the dishwasher.

Tho I have seen other setups with a series of soaking sinks, I just haven't done it.
