In the beginning this principle is rather simple, because you only have to manage around four different ingredients and will rarely get stuck. Those ingredients include buns, patties, salad, and others, and you have to pick them up in the right order to fulfill a customer’s demand. As in previous games, the ingredients are spread over different conveyor belts, and you can only reach the first in a row of each belt. Apart from burgers, Ronnie also prepares pies and lasagna, adds extras such as fries, coffee, or soda, and refines recipes with varying flavor sauces like curry, chocolate, spice or blueberry to customer orders. The basic gameplay has mainly remained the same and doesn’t stray too far from the series’ roots. While the easiest option might be the cup of tea for people who normally dislike time management games due to the hectic pace, the hardest option might even be a serious quest for veterans of the genre. There are numerous awards to obtain, and you can also choose between three grades of difficulty, which is definitely required in a game that complicated and challenging. Stand O’ Food 3 features 25 restaurants with three or four levels each, which can be finished with varying ratings depending on your performance. Though it still has a few issues, the game is a definite improvement over Stand O’Food 2. While there was no real storyline in the predecessor, the newest instalment makes more of an effort and even connects Ronnie to Nikki from another G5 Entertainment series, Supermarket Mania 2. Ronnie is back for another burger-turning adventure with Stand O’ Food 3, and this time he will try to make his business a spectacular success in Tinseltown.
#STAND O FOOD 3 REVIEW SERIES#
The West Midlands is opening up - get the latest on pubs, restaurants and attractions in our What's On newsletter.Stand O’ Food 3 is the best game in the series so far, but isn’t without issues Other fried chicken restaurants include Slim Chickens. Jaqks, 55 Temple Row, Cherry Street, B2 5LE The city centre Jaqks is certainly welcoming- as well as super clean and tidy on my visit - but based on my miserable meal, I won't be returning.
Sitting in Jaqks, I felt very nostalgic remembering the restaurant as Pret a Manger -a warm, welcoming, nourishing and cosy place. Still, the diner didn't have any complaints about his hot and spicy wings and chips - and had been happily tucking into his Jaqks meal until I interrupted him.
#STAND O FOOD 3 REVIEW FULL#
Yes, it is cheap as chips, but as a nearby diner informed me, there are even more affordable places for artery-clogging meal boxes.Īs well as the ubiquitous Big John's, which has a shop on Corporation Street, the diner was full of praise for " super cheap" Chicken Hut further down the same street. There is nothing revolutionary about Jaqks - not even the price, apparently. It's a very confident, bold claim - but from my experience, it was far from accurate.
Jaqks proclaims on its website that "it serves the finest in fried chicken and chips - we're proud to say we have the best chicken burgers or chicken and chips around". £5.48 for one chicken and chips in a box with gravy and Sprite. I walked into Jaqks feeling ravenous but sadly I could not eat any more than a few bites of my lunchtime meal. The chicken was okay - coated in "secret herbs and spices" it tasted better than the chips, but the greasy taste of the chips lingered. And not at all crunchy.ĭespite patting the fries several times with napkins, they still left an oil slick in my mouth. I'd expected the fried chicken to be greasy - fast food is not supposed to be healthy after all - but I was shocked by how horribly oily tasting the fries were. They didn't look soggy but my box was drenched with oil - from both the chicken and the chips.
And sadly very watery and pretty flavourless. I went for the most basic and cheapest thing on the menu - one piece of chicken and hand-cut chips with Jaqks gravy for £3.49.īut I also had to fork out an extra £1.99 for a Sprite.Īlong with my chicken and chips in a box, my gravy pot came wrapped up in foil to keep the gravy as hot as possible.
