Have you installed the Mod MC Command Center? I updated today to the latest Version MCC 2021 2.0, this fixed the problem that the chef has no pots and pans.
I've tried with no mods installed and the latest 2021 2.0 MCCC and it's not fixed. Sometimes the pots and pans and stuff appear, sometimes not, its all a bit hit and miss to be honest. Probably connected to the chef standing outside for ages.
Yes you are right, it does not work in all my restaurants, On Sulani all my restaurants works fine, all my Chefs have pots and pans, I just need to push my chefs at work with Debug and resetting them. My Chefs of Chez Llama on Willow Creek have no pots and pans and also need a reset that they start to work. It`s really odd, I just got that Dine Out Gamepack last week and I`m not happy that I cannot play it properly because it is so buggy ;(
