Healthy diet is no big news around in modern life. Pretty much everything “green” is becoming the favorite for many more who have problems with the old cuisines and want a refreshing change to their daily menus. It’s time to kick junk food out of you kitchen and allow organic vegetables, fertilizer-free fruits and other non-addictive staples to make ways onto your dinner table right from where they were harvested.

This is at least what Gourmet Ranch, the developing Facebook social game, promises to everyone who cares to rent a patch of farmland, to eat what they planted and even serve others with all healthy dishes in this nature-bound world.

The whole restaurant-running thing, from ingredient supplying, dish cooking to table-serving, becomes a one-stop experience for both owners and customers, and thus makes Gourmet Ranch stand out of other cooking and farming titles accessible on social networks.

For owners, they can put fingers in every pie, ranging from growing crop or raising poultry to keep their restaurants supply, serving customers with local favors and home-made cuisines, to even waitressing around the tables. And for delicacy-seekers, they can not only pick up whatever they ordered right from the big ranch, have these fresh ingredients cooked in the way they prefer, and even get to comment on the dishes or give feedbacks to the chef after the meal.

Having a barbeque against the backdrop of mountainside landscapes, or dining with family on the eye-stretching prairies, either will do for a feast on both natural scenery and natural food at the same time. How could a dining experience possibly get more appealing than this one here in the Gourmet Ranch?

A healthy eating concept, however, is only part of the fun. What will make you dig in is the business stuff involved. Anyway, to make everything work out, you need a steady flow of traffic in your restaurant to back you up financially. Therefore, a shrewd merchant’s mind is a must here apart from all your industriousness with farm chores. Decorate your restaurant to make it blend in with the natural scenery around, try out new menus to attract more over, and then try to secure positive feedbacks with good service and quality food.

Features:
Gourmet Ranch is clearly a hybridizing rehash of both farming and cooking titles. The perfect combination makes the whole game play streamlined and consistent, thus able to giving the traditional genre a new taste.

Wonna catch a break from the noisy city life for a natural way of living, give a shot with all kitchen stuffs, or run your own fancy restaurant? Gourmet Ranch holds all the answers and would be your destination for fun whatsoever.

A healthy life, healthy diet and even a healthy business, all in Gourmet Ranch. Go for it and you will come back afresh for sure!

    While the game is great, the best aspect is having neighbours who help out on your ranch to increase your yields…if they bother to do so. The one major gripe I have (besides that!), is that there is no way of storing your finished dishes except in your trade store, where all those aforementioned neighbours can come to pillage without ever visiting.
    And I don’t think that it has anything to do with healthy cooking; it’s more the variety, growing a combination of ingredients (press the “available” button in your recipe book, because you can cook any level of recipe once you have the right items – and most neighbours have ingredients in their trade stores, if not dishes) and gaining coins and levels at the start (for the unlock keys, to buy new plants and animals). Check also for seasonal ingredients (Halloween was a hoot with the Zombies popping out of the ground).
    Hint: when you’re coming close to leveling up, keep planting tea, because it’s quick to grow, and gains you 4 XP every 3 minutes (at time of writing). Oh, and decorating will do it, too.
    Enjoy!

  2. judalea says:

    oops. make that 3 XP.

    • rosa brown says:

      I noticed that when you have a problem with this game turning in a complaint is not easy. I had three keys I earned, and one disappeared. No where to resolve this that I can find. Farmville is very easy and takes care of these problems asap which is probably why they are more popular.

    Not sure where to be writting this,but have been playing gourment ranch for few weeks now and for some reason have been having problems with the game like i decorated my wall it took my money but didn’t do the wall has done that twice now and also i brought a cow and a chicken put in pens then when i come back after fixing my other games they where gone and have to buy more?? It’s frustrating as I do enjoy the game but don’t like loosing my money on items that dont come up and animals that disapper..what to do?

    • Racheal says:

      on facebook

    • Carole says:

      Rachel,
      I lost a cow, a wall somewhere and a palm tree…..some of this game is not explanatory enough. It really needs better directions on line somewhere. Did you ever get an answer to the above questions? Let me know please.

      • Mairi says:

        I have built my raft for the sea fishing twice and bought the first fish twice and used a key to unlock the next sea fish, now both times i have to start again…getting fed up do some repairs to the game, people give up playing because they get frustrated with all the problems.

    • Deborah says:

      Wow thought i was the only one, bought pigs 3 times and they never appeared but i got charged for them, was dissapointed, also moved my cooked food to the counters and when i came back they were on the stoves again…blah

  4. Been playing this game for a few months, and I have witnessed the changes in the game, more pros and better recipes however I dislike the fact that the food no longer spoils and the crops wither

  5. bertram says:

  6. Frances says:

When I try and send something It just keeps flashing and then it freeze up and I have to reload the page, Please fix the game people really enjoy playing it.. Thank you

  7. Stacey says:

    I’m sorry to bother you, but I am having an issue with Gourmet Ranch on facebook, I really like this game because of the combination of harvesting and cooking at the same time, however in the awards category of the game when you accomplish goals to gain more experience,it will tell me to collect the reward and when i do it does not give me the experience and keeps coming right back on for me to collect it over and over again. Please let me know what I can do to get it fixed. Thanks

  8. Michelle says:

    I know I have cooked and served the dishes before but under my rewards page, it says that I have not. Is anyone else experiencing the same problem? Please fix this. Thanks.

  9. tammi says:

    when you level up and it says you get a new waitress, how do you put her out i cant find it anywhere

  10. kristy says:

    Why did i have 2,224,000 coins then bought cafe expansion for 800,000 coins and it left me with 553,000 coins? i still should have had over a million coins!!!!! facebook is screwing people on a lot of games, this is not the only game i have problems with.

  11. kristina says:

    wot about when u cook the same dish several times and when it goes to the counter it has halved in value. u think u would get three times the worth if u cooked the same dish three times..

  12. angel mcclure says:

    when are ur going to add more ingredients……so i can cook…something new……..i know the royal weddinbg is good…..biut have all the ingredients…..need more thing to grow…..LOVE THIS GAME……. one of my best yet…..i played everyday……is there anything new coming soon…..i hope……….

  13. rosa brown says:

    you should be able to gain the dollars like you do in farmville when you level up. I’ve had one dollar since I started this game. I don’t mind spending money, but a reward for leveling up would be nice.

  14. Samantha N. says:

    Is there any cheat codes to get more coins..??? cause i need more coins..

  15. Jodi says:

    GR help fixes any problm I have ever had with items, straight away :)

  16. niccole says:

    i think it sucks that the food and crops spoil now….it was one of my favorites to play because the food didn’t spoil. You don’t get a lot of food when you grow the crops, so why does everything have to spoil….BOOOOOOOOO…….Don’t like that feature…..

  17. Mairi says:

    I was wondering why my crops spoiled and the cooking sooner than before This has ruined the game for sure. Sometimes you are busy with another game like cafe world and cant just drop everything or that spoils too so it was nice to know your ranch was safe for a while but not anymore..looks like the cuts are happening here as well lol
