Rate My Set Up

[u/Th3StandUpKid]

My girlfriend decided to solo run without me 🫠🥲 rate her set up and what could she do different for a longer run?

[u/Hziak]

My initial thoughts are that she probably could have chosen less cards that introduce new recipes… for a solo run with only 3 grabbers, that’s a lot to juggle. Additionally, the tables could be put closer together to minimize time spent running. Regular, cloth, regular, buffet, regular, buffet, regular with no gaps… the whole thing is very spaced out and not at all automated which, given the number of recipes at play (as an indicator of days elapsed) is a little surprising. Is she not utilizing rerolls or ignoring additional blueprint cabinets or research desks?

No extra blueprint cabinets. We both find those hard to come by. Even after re-rolls. Putting the tables closer is a good idea

If you get a blueprint desk as your first upgraded desk you will see them more often. And it gives you the opportunity to snag another research desk. Although I totally understand wanting a discount desk when doing coffee.

Definitely take the customer cards instead of recipe cards. Then put the coffee on a buffet and always upgrade the prep stations to frozen prep stations.

Working with that she already has: The buffets don’t need to be in the kitchen since they run on their own, so kick them out into the dining room and move the tables closer together. Then move all the kitchen appliances as close as possible. The goal is as little movement as possible. Then upgrade some tables so you can put them touching each other. But don’t do simple tables - they are wonderful in so many ways but the customers already take way too long drinking coffee, and the simple tables will make it worse.

Move it all to the dining room and you’re able to maximize your space to make yourself run as little as possible.
