I have a 5 start restaurant with 5 employees (2 chefs, 3 waiters) 4 of which are on maximum wage as they are very good. Just hired a new waiter to keep up with demand who is currently on the minimum. The restaurant is VERY expensive lol. My price mark up is 250%, I use the most expensive ingredients and I have the silver package advertising. The restaurant is always full, so haven't had an need to increase just advertising just yet. It currently makes around £1,500 simoleans profit a day after expenses, including wages.
The key is perks! I have the Tidy tippers, patient patrons, fast eaters, well funded foodies, small ingredient discount.
I am struggling to make a decent profit when the sim isn't there, which is a shame. She has an aspiration to be a great chef and the game did say you could have a business AND a career. I thought she coukd have a restaurant and be a prized Chef. Perhaps even cook herself. It was my first restaurant so I was a bit niave! I'm saving up for the well managed perk to see if this helps. If anyone has cracked this let me know!
