Is there a cooking simulator where you live as a chef?

Chef and cooking simulator

Yes. A chef life simulator is about the life of a cook: the kitchen, the late nights, and the people. LifeSim lets you play a chef in a real city on a 3D map. You meet people in your own words, and they remember you.

Questions

Can I cook food in LifeSim?

No. There is no cooking mini-game. Cooking is part of the story you write. Games like Cooking Mama focus on the cooking itself.

Can I open my own restaurant?

Not as a business system. On desktop, Build mode lets you draw a building and place it in your city, so you can make a place that looks like your restaurant.

Can I find real restaurants?

Yes. Search the map for a kind of place, such as "ramen" or "bakery", and go there.
