Tokimeki Restaurant☆☆☆/Recipes

Recipes are items used for cooking dishes served in the player's own restaurant. They are acquired through various means and always expend a fixed amount of stamina when selected. Time-limited recipes constantly change within a set amount of days and are often themed after famous holidays, cuisine styles, or the six idols themselves. Locked in-game recipes, on the other hand, are automatically previewed when players come close to obtaining them. Note that some recipes can only be made by using a stove while other require a kitchen table installed within the vicinity, making both appliances mandatory for players.

Aside from cooking, a recipe's level may also be strengthened by fusing them with existing copies; this can be used as an alternative method of gaining star levels so long as players have enough currency. Additional stars increase a dish's overall price as well as its gourmet appeal to visiting food experts during challenge quests. Below is a chart of each star level's growth rate.

Lottery Recipes
Players may acquire additional recipes by using the lottery function. Gems and makeover tickets are used as payment for the normal lotteries while the mini version costs nothing. Conversely, the mini lottery has a one per day limit whereas its paid counterpart excludes normal recipes.
