Cafe World (Facebook) Food Spolit Time

2010-01-18T18:43:00.000-08:00

Food spoiled time on Facebook's Cafe World game (by Zynga) is how long the foods take to become spoilt. When your dishes get fully cooked, you will earn some coins and Cafe Points (CP). But from the spoiled foods, besides getting noting from sales, you have to spend 15 coins to clean the stove. However, you won’t be at a loss again if you know the spoiled time of foods on Cafe World game. You can even print it out for reference. Else, to become an expert at the game, check this out.

What Should You Cook to Maximise Profits?

2009-12-20T20:11:00.000-08:00

Do you often ask yourself, what to cook in Cafe World in order to maximise your profits? Well, I hope you are not one of those cooks who just cook what you like, or what dishes fit your mood at that moment in time, or what looks best on your stoves. I wouldn't claim to be an expert, but today, I'll like to shar with you what to cook in order to maximise your returns in the shortest time.

For earning as many coins as possible (provided you can spend at least a few hours a day cooking), you need to cook those dishes that will give you the most Cafe coins per hour, and based on that formula, the following are 3 dishes that will give you the most Cafe coins:

- Bacon Cheeseburger
- Kung Pao Stir Fry
- Overstuffed Peppers

If you are a beginner, you can cook Bacon Cheeseburger, you can try Bacon Cheeseburger. Even if you're an expert player, it's one of the most profitable dishes, although it demands a lot of time. You need to plan properly what you want to cook, depending on when you can get onto Cafe World (be it at home or at work). For example, you can't cook Bacon Cheeseburger if you cannot check your Cafe World in the day time when you're at work because it spoilts fast. We'll talk about spolit time in my next blog entry.

It's vital for your business to know when to cook which dish. You can learn that with a guide I've been using personally to up the level in up my cafe business.

Do You Really Need a Guide For FarmVille?

2009-12-16T21:04:00.000-08:00

I consider myself to be relatively well educated in the latest generation of social networking site games like Mafia Wars, Vampire Wars, and such. That's why when I started to see these FarmVille guides popping up all over the place, I was kind of surprised. I mean, I can see why people might need some tips to get going in games like Mafia Wars, but FarmVille?

At this point though, I hadn't actually played the game, but I didn't really think it could be all that complicated. I figured I should give it a shot though, just so that I could say I knew what I was talking about. And I was in for a rather big surprise. In no time, I was out of money and had no crops to plant. I have to admit, there way more to this game than I had anticipated.

I eventually managed to dig myself out of my original hole and out of the red, but I still wasn't making all that much progress. I started to think that maybe I needed to see what these guides were all about. I wasn't really expecting much, but since I hadn't done so well on my own either, I figured it was worth a shot.

So I picked up a guide called FarmVille secrets, and was pleasantly surprised by the tips I found in it. You wouldn't think there were so many ways you could screw up a virtual farm, but believe me, you can. I was still stumbling along at level 6 when I got the guide after 2 weeks of playing regularly. Now I'm the proud owner of a plantation and a level 26 Sultan of Soil. And I still look back at my guide from time to time. If you're having trouble getting into the swing of things in FarmVille, this guide is not a bad investment.

Add Me Please!

2009-12-16T20:55:00.000-08:00

It is very important in Cafe World for you to have a lot of neighbours. But just to make sure, here are a few points:

- by visiting your neighbours' cafes you get more Cafe Points

- for some extensions you need to have a certain amount of neighbors

- having lots of neighbours increases your chance to receiving many useful and free gifts

Now there is a big group on Facebook called Cafe World, with more than 360k members.

There is a discussion on different topics. And also many "add me please" threads. And there is a thread called The official MASS ADD list, with a list of email addresses of people who are willing to be neighbors. You just need to paste your email address and the admins will add your email to the list. That means, the next time someone uses that list, you'll be there.

By the time I`m writing this email, the list includes 398 neighbors.

Have fun :)

Let's get cooking!

Cafe World - Best Kept Secrets Revealed!

The Inside Scoop on the World’s First Real Café World Guide

2009-12-08T03:56:00.000-08:00

There are a lot of different social games on sites like Facebook and MySpace. I’ve seen a dozen of them in the last few months blew up and frankly, I didn’t get it at first. I saw people playing very simple, albeit free, games and while they looked interesting enough, they really weren’t all that engaging considering what they were.

But, then I started playing Café World. Don’t ask me why it was Café World. It could have been any of them probably. They’re all the same generally, and in that they are extremely addictive. But, it was Café World and now two months later I’m a bit of an addict – I love this game.

So, when I heard there was a guide coming out for it that would help to speed things along, I was first in line to read it. I wanted to know exactly what it was that this Café World guide could offer that I couldn’t figure out on my own.

Turns out, it was quite a bit. As of the two month mark, I was roughly 25 levels into the game. I would play about 3-4 days a week, and the last day would rarely count because I would usually let all my food spoil in the interim when I took the weekend off.

The Café World guide, however, showed me exactly how to outline and master the process of what to cook, when to cook it and how to set up the café before I logged off each night. Turns out you can actually make quite a tidy profit while not even logged in – for days on end if you want.

I couldn’t possibly touch on all the cool things that this guide does right, but here’s the bottom line – Café World is a tough game without some guidance. There are dozens of dishes, possible combinations and ways for you to mess up with. This Café World guide, I was able to create the perfect combination of tactics. I’m now at level 45 and have way more cash than I’ll ever need – and I’m having more fun than ever. That’s what a good guide should do. Check it out here.
