The feature will unlock at Level 12. You will receive a pop-up invitation to join temporary Farmhands, Chef Connor, and Marvelous Meemaw as they arrive at the farm for The Family Bistro event. You may need to force close the game or reboot your device to see the latest update.

Tap The Bistro to start the event. This temporary area will improve in each stage while you progress during the event.

The Family Bistro event starts on September 1 and ends on September 12, 2021. There are 6 Phases for the event, and each phase has its own set of rewards. You have 12 days to complete the event and win the temporary Farmhand Grill Chef Chip for 30 days.

You will need to collect rare event items and craft limited-time recipes to finish each phase. Complete the stage to win rewards. 

You can also enjoy exclusive rewards when you buy the Family Pass:

• Bistro Theme which stays through the duration of the event
• 2x Phase Rewards
• Upgraded temporary Farmhand Master Chef Chip

 

The Cook House is a temporary area where you can get rare event items needed in each recipe. For example, it will drop the Food Color required in Phase 1.
