Continental Cafe serves you some fine dining with a jet-set lifestyle. You get to travel the world and enjoy the culture, architecture, and of course, the food. Laura Speed, our heroine follows her dream and goes to open restaurants, unlocking entrees that you can also make.

Laura has just won the lottery and decides to invest in her dream - opening restaurants - everywhere around the world. Before she begins on her business quest, she gets some practice working for top chefs at each locale.

There are five countries to which you travel; France, Italy, Ecuador, Greece and Thailand. You complete the same mini-games for each nation to release recipes and move onto the next.

You get fun games, like Bon-Appetit, the minisweeping-style waitressing game; Word Wheel, forming phrases that incorporate a central letter; Slide Puzzle, using great pictures; Logic Puzzle, which has you finding shapes in things like cakes; and a variety of other puzzles. Your reward for your labors is a printable recipe for REAL meals! You get a whole range of native specialties, from soups to starters and desserts. Continential Cafe is definitely for those who enjoy cooking, mini-games and travel. Perhaps not a five-star restaurant in terms of gameplay, but hey, it's no McDonald's either.
