Herb garden

From level 12 you get your own herb garden. Plant seeds, come back later and pick fresh herbs. Your herbs never wilt, so take your time!

How it works

  1. Tap an empty plot and pick a herb. Seeds cost a few Coins.
  2. Come back when the herb is grown and pick it.
  3. Herbs never wilt. More plots open as you level up.

The herb bonus

Some dishes use herbs. When you cook such a dish with your own herbs, it earns 5% more Coins and 5% more XP for each herb it uses. Herbs and sauces together give at most +20%.

Sauces

From level 15 you can mix sauces. A sauce uses herbs plus one basic ingredient. The basics (olive oil, tomato, butter, coconut milk, honey and cream) are always in stock and free.

A sauce gives a bonus for a while: more Coins, more XP or fresher food. Up to 2 sauces can work at the same time.
