How to keep my counters full?

[evanjan]

I have been cooking a lot of dishes but when i come back most of them are sold out
Can you guys give me some tips on how to have counters with food over 100k servings?

What I do is close the door and cook the dishes to level 4 which are usually over 10k in servings but everyone plays the game differently and it's a good way to boost your coins up. I don't know which dishes give you 100k in servings, probably the 2 day ones.

I think the Stuffed Mushrooms has a large output. There is a thread in the Restaurant Story section that has charts and guides that tell you all kinds of things, like what makes most servings, what makes most money, parts needed, ect. I'll see if I can find it and link it here. Annie

First of all, do NOT close your door. If you do then you may find that you have a "quick sell" of whatever was on your counter.

Secondly, find recipes with higher yield and cook them over and over again. There is a generally accepted problem in RS that keeping counters stocked is a problem for everyone. I'm a level 99 player with almost all recipes mastered and I STILL have a challenge. I do have more than 18 appliance slots open to me as well and still have a challenge, especially when I'm doing goals. But what I do is I cook stuffed mushroom every day in between goals and build up a stockpile. Stuffed mushrooms give a decent profit and have a high yield.

Note though that some high yield recipes give a very very low profit so sometimes it's a delicate balance between making profit, earning gems and having enough food to sell.

Ok first off, the operative word in the above statement is 'MAY' - I have played for over a year, have closed my door(s) with not only the host table but random floor decorations too many numorous times to count and have only ever had the quick sale happen TWICE.
Second off, my advice to proceed is to close your door with a random floor decoration, focus on making food for say a week, make sure to get a large yield recipe and a large profit recipe out before you reopen. Have only one counter per recipe. So every one has their own counter and none are ever duplicates, the more a recipe is spread around between a ton of counters the quicker it's going to disappear.
Third and finally, as cute as they are don't worry about doing the monthly challenges until YOU feel your stash is at a good level and that you're making enough coin to not worry about over expenses - nothing worse then not having the coin to complete a monthly challenge and just being trapped both ways.. MOST IMPORTANTLY - HAVE FUN!

Thanks guys for all your tips
I have cooked different dishes and I have counters filled with different dishes but keeping the door closed made me lose half of my dishes even though customers don't enter the restaurant. How to tackle this situation is my problem now

i don't like to risk closing my door--i only had the quick sale happen once, but as i was trying to build up stock in RS it was really annoying. so i just turn the chairs to the sides so that customers can enter but have no where to sit, or just a few places to sit that are far away from the door so it takes them a while to get there. your rating goes down, but who cares? it comes back up once you've given them chairs again.

These are the appliances that I currently have:

3 Stoves - Strawberry Salad(1hr), Garlic Mussels(1hr), Burritos(6hrs)
3 Grills --- Shrimp Kabobs(1hr), BBQ Wings(1hr), T-Bone Steak(1hr), Kalua Pig(8hrs)
3 Ovens - Fish and Chips(1hr), Potato Wedges(1hr), Gushing Cheesecake(6hrs)
2 Tart Fountain(Only for Goal)

These are the dishes I cook daily but when i go to sleep and come back after 7-8hrs 2-4 counters are empty, I cook up to a certain servings before I go to bed, so that the counters still will be full the next morning, doesn't work.
Is this way effective or not, please give me some tips on improving by keeping the counters full.

I personally just use one type of stove at a time and cook the same food on all of them. If you are just going for quantity right now I know the bbq chicken has like 4000 servings.
