If im not mistaken you can only cook it with a chef stationWho thought that was a good ideaIts a damn commerical stove with condiment holders and looks so out of place in a homeI really think you should be able to cook these normally instead of having a commerical chef station in a small home kitchen

Same reason you have an oversized machine to cook cupcakes and other baked goods. :(

I don't know if this will work but maybe you can put the chef station in a basement or a room that you're not going to use, if that doesn't bother you. Your sim will be able to make the dish with a normal stove. Or at least I've seen my sim do that autonomously when I tell him to solve his hunger need. You will only need the chef station just to get the option which is silly but yeah. Lemme just check in game and see if this works.Yep, it works!http://i.imgur.com/37LgcPK.png

@Ifreshyeh I think so. All the times I've cooked them have been on the chef's station.

*I double checked and no you can't cook it on a regular stove. You need the station.
