✅ Why You Might Enjoy It

• Combines a familiar match‑3 puzzle format with a fun cooking/restaurant story, which adds flavour beyond simple tile‑matching.
• The recipe and travel theme give a sense of progression and variety across levels, rather than “just another match‑3 board”.
• If you enjoy light, casual puzzle games with a themed setting (food, restaurants, cooking) it’s a nice choice.

⚠️ Things to Consider

• If you’re looking for highly complex puzzle mechanics, this is fairly straightforward—its focus is more on theme and story than deeply intricate mechanics.
• Because it is a PC game (Windows), if you were hoping for a mobile version you’ll need to check availability for your device.
• As with many casual games, later levels may get trickier or require more strategic planning of moves/power‑ups.
