GAME OBJECTIVE

Shed your entire deck first.

PLAYING A DEAL

Each deal is played over a number of rounds. Each round consists of the following:

• Starting a Round
  • Menu Items & Menu Combinations
• Continuing a Round
  • Serving a Higher-Ranking Dish
  • Passing
• Drawing Cards
• Ending a Round
• Starting the Next Round

STARTING A ROUND

The Starter leads the first round by playing a card combination, which is called serving a dish, face up in front of themself. Each player has their own card pile, which is called the service area, on which they play all their orders. Don’t mix card piles between players.

This first dish begins the Starter’s service area for the round. The Starter serves all subsequent dishes into this area. The other player will serve their dishes into their own service area.

MENU ITEMS & MENU COMBINATIONS

There are two kinds of card combinations or dishes:

Menu Items and Menu Combinations.

There are three categories of Menu Items,

① Drinks,

② Sides, and

③ Mains.  

Each category corresponds to the number of cards in the Menu Item. When a category has more than one Menu Item in it, the later Menu Items are higher ranked or more expensive than the earlier ones. The following table list all the possible Menu Items:

MENU ITEMS

Menu Item	Description	Example
① Drinks
Soda	One card played by itself	🍅2
② Sides
Rings	Two cards of consecutive rank	☀️3-🥒4
Fries	Two cards of the same rank	🍅6-🥒6
Fancy Rings	Two cards of consecutive rank and the same suit	☀️5-☀️6
Fancy Fries	Two cards of the same rank and the same suit	🍅1-🍅1
③ Mains
Hot Dog	Three cards of consecutive rank	☀️1-🥒2-🥒3
Cheeseburger	Three cards of the same rank	🍅5-🍅5-🥒5
Fancy Dog	Three cards of consecutive rank and the same suit	🥒3-🥒4-🥒5
Fancy Burger	Three cards of the same rank and the same suit	☀️2-☀️2-☀️2

In general, each category has consecutively ranked cards being weaker than sets of cards with the same rank, and cards with the same suit are stronger than cards with different suits.

There are two types of Menu Combinations. Both types have one menu item from Mains and then one menu item from Drinks (if it is a Combo 1) or Sides (if it is a Combo 2).

MENU COMBINATIONS

Combo Type	Description	Example
Combo 1	1 Main & 1 Drink	A Hotdog & Soda: ☀️4-🍅5-🥒6 & ☀️2
Combo 2	1 Main & 1 Side	A Cheeseburger & Fries: 🍅5-🍅5-🥒5 & ☀️1-🥒1
