This game would be really fun except it is a rip of. It tricks you to say it has ’30+ Recipes’, but they count each meal as about 3 or 4 recipes. There is only 12 Meals! what a rip off! But for the gameplay it is fun. I am used to Cooking Mama, but this is ment for an older audience than Cooking Mama. Basically, you pay about 3.50 per meal on this game. Fun but a big waste. I wanted to LOVE this game. Too bad. Could’ve been great, if they included more recipes.

As mentioned by others, this game is fun and I like the real-world aspect of the game.
I was looking forward to finishing the first screen of meals and moving on to really complicated things seen on FN like reductions, bread baking… they could have gone really far with this game and made it wonderful.
I felt completely deflated when I realized the one screen of meals was the entire game.
Food Network should offer every product holder a free download on Wii of more meals to protect their good name. I would not buy a FN game again even though it was fun – because of the lame length of the game.

I am thankful that this was someone else’s Christmas present, it has to be one of the most boring and stupid video games I’ve ever played. It is so bad it inspired me to write this review as a warning. It’s actually easier to do one of the recipes in real life than to replicate it in the game. For example the first round is frying eggs and bacon, which is mostly following directions telling you when to shake/move the wiimote or nunchuk at the right time. The controls are not creative or interesting in emulating actual cooking techniques. The graphics are unrealistic. This entire game can easily be completed within 3 hours.
Seriously, save your money for buying an actual cookbook. No one should be subjected to this game. I don’t recommend it for anyone.

I received this game for Christmas. We’ve played it one time and are not interested in playing it again. Isn’t worth the money. Buy “Order Up” instead. It’s a fun game and a heck of a lot cheaper.

I really liked this game, I just wish they had added more content. 30+ recipes is a bit deceiving, as they count all the parts of one meal as separate recipes. For instance, pancakes with bacon counts as two recipes and Cheese Quesadillas with Tomato Salsa and Guacamole counts as three. As you can imagine it doesn’t take long to work through all the recipes in the game.
Other than how short it was I had no other complaints and still think it was worth purchasing. The game play is fun and I actually picked up quite a few good tips! I liked that the recipes were real and would actually work in my own kitchen. I recreated the pancakes with nutmeg in real life and they were delicious! Hope they make a sequel – just with way more content.
