Welcome to the official walkthrough for Mary le Chef – Cooking Passion! Mary is a talented law student and aspiring chef, but her family’s dreams for her don’t reflect her own. Mary will have to choose her own path as she tries to balance her career with her goals. It’s multitasking to the extreme! Thankfully, our official walkthrough is designed to help you with just that. Here you can find in-depth strategies for every level and challenge, as well as mice locations, trophy how-to’s, and even a few secrets along the way. Choose a topic from the Contents below to get started!

General Tips & Tricks
If you’re just starting out or simply need a few pointers, this section is dedicated to introducing you to the game and its mechanics. Learn how the game works, as well as a few tips and tricks along the way!
How to Play
Once you’ve launched Mary le Chef, simply click “Play”! You will be taken to the Map – a level select screen. Move your cursor to the left and right edges of your screen to navigate between level select screens, or use the arrows in the lower left and right corners to move the map.
Mary le Chef – Cooking Passion is a time management game. The goal is to serve every customer that enters your restaurant before time runs out at the end of the day. The happier your customer, the higher your score will be!
To serve a customer an order, click on the products they ask for. These items will be placed on your tray in the lower left corner of your screen. Click on the customer, and try to take the products they ask for back to them as quickly as possible. Once a customer is finished eating, they will go to the cash register. Click on the cash register to check them out and receive a score. If a customer has left a table, a “!” bubble will appear, meaning the table needs to be cleaned. Clean a table by clicking on it. This will allow a new set of customers to sit down and enjoy their meal.
Scoring and Hearts
A happy customer means a high score! Customers in your restaurant will have between 1 and 5 hearts over their head at any given time. An angry customer will have 1 heart, while a happy customer will have 5. Giving customers the items they ask for in a timely manner will make the number of hearts they have increase. However, doing so slowly, or getting the order wrong, will make them unhappy, causing their hearts to decrease. If a customer loses all of their hearts, they will leave the restaurant – and the check!
You can earn additional score bonuses by improving your menu, or by buying upgrades for your restaurant. You can also earn additional points by finding the mice hidden in each of the game’s 60 main levels. Do your best and try to earn 3 stars for each level, and 1 star for bonus levels!
Mice Locations
A mouse is hidden in each level (levels 1 – 60, excluding bonus levels). Listen for tell-take squeaks and keep a sharp eye out. Mice are gray and can appear in a number of places. Finding a mouse increases your score, and also counts toward the trophy “Fresh Milk”. Again, mice are not hidden in bonus levels. Unlike time management games such as Delicious or Fabulous, the mice in Mary le Chef are random. That means they won’t necessarily show up in the same place every level. To see where mice can show up, visit the Mouse Locations section of this walkthrough. You can also click Mouse Location under each level to be taken straight to a screenshot showing where the mouse could be hiding!
Upgrades
Completing levels will reward you with coins, which you can use to buy upgrades for your restaurant. There are two kinds of upgrades you can unlock: Store and Menu.
- Store – The Store is opened automatically when you select a level from the map. You can buy upgrades for your restaurant here. Upgrades can improve customer patience, tips, and even how fast Mary can move and cook! Click on an item to view upgrade options.
- Menu – Alternatively, the Menu is opened automatically when you select a level from the map. Here you can customize your menu. Click on a menu item to view options. Menu items you unlock often have special bonuses, such as quicker prep times or bonus tips.
Click on the Store and Menu buttons at the bottom of the screen after selecting a level to alternate between restaurant and menu upgrades.
Additional Tips and Tricks
- Diamonds are a girl’s best friend! Complete the diamond challenge for each level to earn Diamonds. Diamonds can be used to purchase gifts. Click on the Diamond button in the upper right corner of the level select map, then click on a present to unlock it.
- Sure – I can multitask! Click on multiple items to stack Mary’s tasks while playing. Clicking ahead is a good way to keep Mary moving and serving customers quickly.
- Stock the shelves! The start of a level is a great time to restock on items. Items with numbers beside them mean they’re available in limited numbers. Make sure you keep these stocked, otherwise you may end up falling behind later in the day.
- Tag, you’re it! The cash register is your go-to checkpoint. In other words, you don’t have to idly stand by a table after serving a customer. Instead, click on the cash register to navigate the restaurant faster.
- The more, the merrier! Serve and check out multiple customers at the cash register at once when you can. It will help keep things flowing smoothly.
- Can’t you see my hands are full? Whenever possible, try to serve customers full orders at once. A full order is serving a customer everything they asked for in one trip. Doing this will provide bonuses to your score.
- I can’t wait to be seated! Keep tables clean by clicking on them when a “!” bubble appears after a customer has left. A customer won’t sit at a dirty table. If you have no clean tables, they’ll simply walk out.
- Customization is king! You will unlock new, exciting items to put on your menu as you play. Make your menu unique by customizing it. Customizing a menu often goes a long way in improving your overall score. You can even unlock items that can’t be burned or spilled!

Level 1 – Best of Both Worlds
Diamond Challenge: Make sure every customer is happy.
Mouse Location: Click here to view mouse locations for this restaurant.

Diamond Challenge: Prepare all of the dishes.
Mouse Location: Click here to view mouse locations for this restaurant.
Today’s diamond challenge requires you to prepare all of the products and variations possible in the restaurant. There are 11 possible variations you will need to make before the day is done:

- Recipe Magazine
- Newspaper
- Baked Potato (alternative: Baked Avocado)
- Empanada with topping, no jam
- Empanada with jam and topping
- Paella (Chicken or Shrimp)

Therefore, try and make each of these products as quickly as possible at the start of the day. You can click on any extra items on your tray to remove them and make room for more.
Tip! Today is the perfect day to upgrade the coffee machine if you haven’t already. After selecting the level in the Map, click on the Store button at the bottom of your screen.

Diamond Challenge: Just keep moving.
Mouse Location: Click here to view mouse locations for this restaurant.

When there are no orders, switch between clicking on the peppers in the center island and the cash register to keep her moving.
Tip! If you find yourself running out of time, it’s better to click on an item and then remove it from your tray than to let Mary stand still for too long.

Mouse Location: Click here to view mouse locations for this restaurant.

It’s better to let the customers wait just a little longer and to keep her disguise on throughout the day.

Alternatively, if multiple of the same item are ordered, you can pick up another item the customer didn’t order to make sure that those items aren’t made back-to-back.
For example: If a customer orders 2 Pastas, make 1 Pasta and pick it up, then pick up 1 bottle of Red Wine, then make 1 more Pasta for the order.

Complete all 5 steps necessary to complete the cake before the end of the day to earn yourself another diamond.

Clear away all the ice before the end of the day to complete today’s challenge.
Tip! It’s very likely your first customer(s) will order items from the bar. If you can’t get them to them in time and they leave angry, that’s ok! It’s better to clear the ice for the next customers and keep them happy than to serve more than one angry customer.

Bonus Levels
There are a total of 30 Bonus levels in the game, 5 per restaurant, all of which can be found in the level select map. This section outlines every bonus challenge – what it is, how to beat it, and tips and tricks along the way.
Bonus 1 – Impatience is No Virtue!
Diamond Challenge: Everybody’s in a rush! Customers get impatient really fast!
Customers are less patient today. That means you’ll have to manage your time more carefully. Serve full orders and try to chain orders together. You have 5 slots on your tray today, so don’t hesitate to use each and every one of them!
Bonus 2 – Combo Fiesta
Diamond Challenge: Only by completing multiple orders together can you earn points.
Points can only be earned via combos today. Serve a minimum of 2 customers at once. Full orders are a must today. The same goes for checking customers out at the register – try to make sure there are at least 2 people at the register when you click on it.
Tip! Bonus points earned from upgrades and menu items with bonus tips will still count toward your score, regardless of whether or not you serve multiple customers back-to-back. Serving customers quickly will also count toward your score regardless.
Bonus 3 – Think Fast!
Diamond Challenge: Something’s off – everything seems to be happening faster!
Keep up with the fast pace! Everything is happening faster today. Treat today like you would any other day, only try not to get too flustered! If you find things are happening too quickly, try focusing on one customer at a time instead of large groups. The plus side of everything being faster is that before you know it, the day will be done!
Bonus 4 – Flyers Away!
Diamond Challenge: The party’s just around the corner – make sure no customers leave the restaurant without a flyer.
Give every customer a party flyer before they leave. The party flyers are located on the right, just below the upper right booth. Click on a flyer to add it to your tray. The best way to give a customer at the counter a flyer is to give it to them with their order. For example – if a customer orders coffee: pick up the flyer, then the coffee, and serve both to them at once while they’re at the register.
Table customers are an exception. Bring the table their order as per normal. When a customer from that table goes to the register to check out, pick up a flyer, then give that flyer to them before clicking on the register, just as you would any of the walk-in customers.
Tip! A “!” bubble will appear over the stack of flyers on the right when you’ve forgotten to give a flyer to someone at the register and they’ve already received their order. Quickly pick up a flyer and click on customers to figure out who it is. A customer who has already received a flyer won’t take another one.
Tip! Keep an extra flyer on your tray today, just in case!
Mary le Chef – Cooking Passion – Bonus Level 4
Bonus 5 – A Snail’s Pace
Diamond Challenge: Mary is tired and overworked, but still pushing on to do a good job.
Mary will work slower today. As a result, it’s very easy for orders to back up. To prevent this, make sure to invest in the coffee machine upgrade prior to playing this level. This will allow you to prepare cups of coffee in advance, without them spilling over. Try to bundle orders in such a way that you’re picking up items in the same sections of the restaurant. For example: If two customers order newspapers, pick up the newspapers for both orders at the same time.
Tip! Use the cash register as a sort of checkpoint. If Mary’s not moving, click on the cash register to have her wait there for the next order.
Bonus 6 – A Change of Mind
Diamond Challenge: People these days just don’t know what they want!
Watch out for customers who change their minds! Keep an eye out for the order bubbles over a customer’s head. If the item they had asked for disappears and a “…” takes its place, it means that customer is about to change their order. Stop whatever order you were preparing for them and wait for them to decide on their new order.
Tip! If you end up with the wrong item on your tray when a customer changes their order, click on the item to remove it from your tray.
Bonus 7 – The Mouse Trap
Diamond Challenge: Catch all the mice!
Catch the mice quickly! Mice will pop up all over the restaurant today. Catch 15 of them before the restaurant closes to complete today’s goal. You will hear a squeaking sound every time a mouse appears. Mice can pop up in any of the locations pictured here:
Mary le Chef – Cooking Passion – Bonus Level 7
Bonus 8 – Crowd Control
Diamond Challenge: It’s one of those days – either it’s empty, or it’s filled to the brim!
Manage the large groups of people. Customers will come in waves today. Between waves, the restaurant will be quiet, but when a wave arrives, it’ll be at full capacity in no time. Serve complete orders to keep customers happy and make sure you keep your crepes fully stocked. If you need an extra boost, use the jukebox to keep customers happy while they wait.
Tip! Investing in restaurant upgrades that increase patience is an excellent idea today, as well as any menu items you’ve unlocked that do the same.
Bonus 9 – Expiration Date
Diamond Challenge: Today is not your day. All of the food seems to be going bad rather quickly…
Deliver everything before it goes bad. All the products today are fresh and have very short shelf lives. To keep products from going bad, focus on serving only 1 customer or table at a time. Trying to serve customers in combos risks your food going bad, so it’s better to play it safe. As soon as you’ve picked up an item for a customer, make sure you pick up any and all remaining items for their order and deliver it to them right away! Once a customer has received their order, it will no longer risk going bad. So if you’d still like to chain customer check-outs at the register, feel free.
Bonus 10 – Forgive and Forget
Diamond Challenge: Some customers will not be able to pay. Succeed despite this!
Not everyone will be able to pay for their orders today. That means the key to obtaining high scores is to try and perform as many combos as possible. You can do this by serving orders quickly, serving full orders, serving customers back-to-back, and checking out customers in groups. You can also custom tailor your menu to have items that will provide you with bonus tips. Utilize these tips and tricks, and you should have no problem completing today’s challenge.
Bonus 11 – Child’s Play
Diamond Challenge: Bumping into kids makes you drop the items on your tray!
There are 2 children running around the center table today. If you run into them while carrying items on your tray, you’ll end up dropping them. Watch for the gap when they run by whenever you need to get over to the other side or serve a nearby customer.
Tip! Don’t worry about the children if you have nothing on your tray. If there’s nothing on your tray, you can cross paths with them without having to worry about them slowing Mary down.
Mary le Chef – Cooking Passion – Bonus Level 11
Bonus 12 – The Customer is King
Diamond Challenge: Some customers will be unhappy with what they’re served – make it right with a new dish!
Customers will request new orders, but they’ll only pay for one. This is most likely to happen with a table full of customers. After serving their full order, they’ll almost immediately order another. A customer’s hearts will not be filled with the first order, so you’ll need to be quick to fulfill the second. Place priority on serving these customers as quickly as possible. Customers at the register are a lower priority today.
Bonus 13 – A Clean Slate
Diamond Challenge: Word is the Health Inspector is in town. Keep the restaurant extra clean!
Clean tables within 8 seconds of customers leaving. Morey isn’t around to help, so it’s entirely up to you! As soon as a table is ready for cleaning, a “!” bubble will appear over it. Quickly click on the table and clean it, before checking out the customer that goes to the register. The time needed to clean a table counts toward the 8 seconds, so wait no longer than 4 seconds to click on a table and start cleaning it once the “!” has appeared.
Bonus 14 – Space Control
Diamond Challenge: You picked the broken tray, but there’s no time to change it. Make the best out of it.
Your tray is slowing breaking – stick with it! You’ll start the day with 6 spots on your tray. However, the tray will start breaking almost right away. Whenever the tray breaks, 1 spot will be removed. You’ll have warning when this is about to happen – the tray will start blinking red.
Serve customers as per normal, but take the broken tray into account. By the time the day is halfway done, you’ll only have 3 spots left on your tray. Before you reach the final quarter, only 1 slot will remain. You will need to make multiple trips to fulfill orders, so try to make sure everything is fully stocked and ready to go before this happens in order to manage your time.
Mary le Chef – Cooking Passion – Bonus Level 14
Bonus 15 – First Come, First Serve
Diamond Challenge: Serve the customers as they come in, no cutting in line.
Serve the customers in the same order as they enter the restaurant. Keep an eye on customers coming in and serve them as quickly as possible to prevent any customer back-up. Remember to restock all your items at the start of the day so you don’t lose track of customers while restocking.
Tip! Keep your cursor hovered over the next customer you’re serving. This will help you keep track of the order they need to be served when you’re not busy bringing them their meals.
Bonus 16 – Waste Not, Want Not
Diamond Challenge: Have no extra items on your tray that have to be removed.
Don’t throw away food or leave extra food on your tray. Make food only as customers order. If you feel the need to play things safe, serve 1 customer at a time.
Bonus 17 – Order Up!
Diamond Challenge: Serve only complete orders to your customers.
Serve a customer their entire order at once. You will have 4 slots on your tray today. As such, don’t combine customers’ orders unless they’re at the counter. If a table is ordering, focus on serving them alone.
Bonus 18 – Please Don’t Stand Up
Diamond Challenge: Morey is trying his hand at stand up – you’ll have to run the market on your own!
Keep the market running without Morey’s help. This means there won’t be anyone to help you clean tables today. Focus on serving customers as per normal, but every chance you get, clean the tables. The priority is to serve customers before cleaning tables. However, if all the tables are occupied and/or dirty, make sure you stop serving customers for a moment and keep at least 1 table clean. Otherwise, if a new table of customers walks in, they will immediately leave.
Bonus 19 – Chicken Eggony
Diamond Challenge: Delicate eggs break easily; gather them before they do.
There are 2 chickens running around the market today. Both will lay eggs on the grass at random, and they will do this frequently. Make sure to click on the eggs quickly! If you don’t click on an egg within a few seconds, it will crack and count as a strike against you. If 5 eggs break before day’s end, you will fail today’s challenge. Serve customers quickly, but eggs are your priority. Be aware that eggs can be laid behind customers’ order pop-ups, so keep a close eye on those chickens! A screenshot showing common egg-laying locations is pictured below.
Tip! As soon as you see an egg, click on it! Even if Mary is busy serving a customer or rekindling the fire, as long as an egg has been clicked, it won’t crack, even if it takes several seconds for Mary to catch up on the task. You can tell if an egg has been clicked if it’s blinking.
Mary le Chef – Cooking Passion – Bonus Level 19
Bonus 20 – Ka-Ka-Ka-CHING!
Diamond Challenge: The cash register keeps jamming!
Unjam the cash register to charge customers. The cash register will jam every handful of seconds. Your best strategy for this level is to only unjam it if you’ve got nothing else to do, or if you’re about to check out a customer at the register. If you interrupt the task of unjamming the register, it will almost immediately fully jam again. Don’t worry too much if you see the “!” appear – only when you’re actually checking out a customer.
Mary le Chef – Cooking Passion – Bonus Level 20
Bonus 21 – Oh Happy Day
Diamond Challenge: What’s the point of cooking if your customers aren’t happy when they leave? Show them the best service.
Make sure every customer leaves happy. Serve customers quick, full orders to keep them happiest. Your goal is to have every customer leave with 4-5 hearts over their head.
Tip! If a customer stands next to the piano, they will order only one thing – the binoculars. You can click on the binoculars to pick them up and wait by them a moment if you see a customer with the “…” bubble here. They are guaranteed to ask for them within a few seconds.
Tip! Try to have at least 1-2 fully prepped portions of meat on your tray and ready to go. This is the only item today that requires preparation, so stay ahead of the game and you won’t ever have to worry about customers waiting long!
Bonus 22 – ANOTHER!
Diamond Challenge: Table customers can’t get enough of the food, and just keep ordering more.
The table customers will order more than once. Just keep serving! Keep the meat on the left restocked by clicking on the large leg. Use the binoculars trick mentioned in the bonus level above, and prep meals as per normal. Morey can also help keep customers patient with the piano. Using these tricks, you shouldn’t have too much trouble finishing service today with flying colors.
Bonus 23 – Fast Food
Diamond Challenge: Working in a top notch restaurant requires top notch service! Serve your customers their whole orders quickly!
Serve a Quick and Full Order at least 3 times. To serve a quick order, give a customer their complete order within the first few seconds of them ordering. Full Orders are made by delivering all the items a customer ordered in a single trip. It’s possible to achieve both these things at the same time. Whenever you’re not busy serving customers, restock your items to help you more easily achieve today’s goal.
Bonus 24 – Shooting for the Stars
Diamond Challenge: Steve wants perfect magazine pictures by the end of the day. Better bring out those photography skills of yours.
Shoot the photos at the perfect moments. A “!” bubble will appear in various locations around the restaurant today. When these appear, click on the bubble to have Mary go there and shoot the perfect picture! Mary does not have to do this immediately, but you’ll want to do it quickly nonetheless. You will need to take 7 photos before the restaurant closes in order to complete today’s challenge.
Mary le Chef – Cooking Passion – Bonus Level 24
Bonus 25 – You Better Watch Out!
Diamond Challenge: Keep aware of your surroundings.
Food takes longer to cook, but overcooks quicker, and drinks spill over more frequently. Make items that can burn or spill made-to-order only. This will help minimize accidents. Furthermore, purchase any final upgrades for the restaurant you may not have already. This will help Mary move faster and customers to be more patient.
Bonus 26 – Critic-al!
Diamond Challenge: Food critics are in the house tonight. Keep them happy, or get booted by Steve… again.
Make sure the food critics get their orders complete and on time. The critics are sitting at the rightmost table. Serve everything they order to them in a single trip to serve them a full order. They will order multiple times today. Use the DJ on the upper right to help keep them patient. Otherwise, focus on serving the critics when they order before any other customers.
Mary le Chef – Cooking Passion – Bonus Level 26
Bonus 27 – Marywatch
Diamond Challenge: Don’t let the kids get too close to the pool.
There’s a red-haired girl with a blue bow who’s fascinated with the pool. She will start out near the rightmost table. As soon as she starts to move, it will be directly to the pool on the left. As soon as she moves to the pool and a “!” bubble pops up over her head, drop everything and click on her right away. You will only have a few seconds to respond when she reaches the pool, so keep a sharp eye out! She will continue to go back to the pool repeatedly throughout the day. Prevent her from getting too close for too long by the time the restaurant closes, and you’ll earn today’s diamond.
Mary le Chef – Cooking Passion – Bonus Level 27
Bonus 28 – Long Overdue
Diamond Challenge: Table customers will not leave unless prompted.
Table customers are taking their time today. When a table has finished eating, one member of the group will go to the cash register to pay. Once you’ve checked them out, that same customer will go back to the table and sit down. A “!” bubble will appear. Click on the table to have Morey clean it. Once Morey is done cleaning, click on the table again to have Mary go to the table and ask the customers to leave. If you’re not careful, customers not leaving will prevent new customers from sitting down. However, if you stay on top of things, you will have no trouble completing today’s task.
Mary le Chef – Cooking Passion – Bonus Level 28
Bonus 29 – Burn Baby Burn!
Diamond Challenge: Don’t burn any food, and don’t let any drinks spill over!
Cook everything to perfection, no exceptions! Be very careful as you multi-task today. If you need, take a moment whenever you’re cooking something that can burn or when filling a pitcher than can spill. It’s better to be safe than sorry. Use the DJ to help keep customers happy as you focus on delivering absolute perfection.
Bonus 30 – Up Your Game
Diamond Challenge: Don’t burn food, spill drinks, give incomplete orders, waste food, or let your customers be dissatisfied.
Play perfectly with no upgrades! Today’s bonus level is the ultimate challenge. There’s no upgrades, either restaurant or menu, to help you, and that includes Morey and the DJ! This means in addition to all the cooking, you’ll be doing all the cleaning. You will need to serve everything a customer orders in a single trip, without making any mistakes or removing any food from your tray. Keep your items stocked every spare chance you get. Good luck! Here’s a few tricks to help you conquer the ultimate challenge:
- If a customer is waiting by the pool, they will be waiting for scuba gear. Click on the scuba gear to have it ready for them before they’re done thinking.
- Make food made-or-order only. Do not keep any spare items on your tray.
- All burgers require the side of sauce. Don’t forget it!
- Make sure there is always at least 1 table clean. If a group of customers leave, you will fail today’s challenge.
- Keep the buns stocked by clicking on the basket beneath the left side of the counter. You can keep the towels stocked by clicking on the pile beneath the cash register.
- Customers do not need 4-5 hearts today. They only need to not leave angry without paying. If the customers start to become upset, don’t panic! You can still accomplish today’s challenge, even with unhappy customers.
