I just went back to that...it is a hard one!

I used only the counter and tables directly across from it...I ignored the rest. I sat at least 5 groups, sometimes six at a time. At the end, I had only 3 groups of seniors.

I did have to break the chain a couple times to give drinks to seated customers who were smoking and were ready to leave and about half the time I ignored the snacks.

I did watch my colors, but concentrated on getting to the podium whenever I could...especially when I was waiting for all of them to be ready to order. I usually don't do that, but this time they were getting angry faster. So as soon as I sat the groups, I went back to the podium and waited til i got a heart. By this time, the menus were all down. I took the orders and dropped them, then back to the podium.

Also, make sure you're at the podium when seating people. If anyone is really angry and you're seating them, if you keep your mouse on them and don't unclick until you're heart's filled, up, they will get happier too. If you miss it, go grab them a drink so they'll gain a couple more hearts to buy you some time.

Good luck!

This is copied from my post on the previous page...I finally had gotten expert on that level:

The way I did it was to consistently seat at least 6 groups along the counter and across from it and using one of the 6 tops when absolutely necessary. I made sure I went back to the podium EVERY time after putting the orders in, and I let them smoke their little heads off at the table until I had a full heart at the podium. When it was smaller groups, I sat 7 or even 8 groups and while at the podium, I tried to plan my color bonus strategy.

At the end, I had about 8 small groups in line with full hearts, so I sat all of them calmly in the best color choices. Half way through cleaning up the tables, I made expert, so it was just barely.

This is from my post when I finally beat the level, but not expert:

I sat 4 groups at time as close together as possible, like down the counter and directly across from it. As soon as you take the 4 group's orders, put them in, and if possible (if the seated have a decent amount of hearts), go to the podium until you fill the heart there.

Then, serve the food and immediately click the tables to give the checks...sometimes it looks like they'll still be eating, but they finish so quickly, that by the time Flo gets there, they're done.

As soon as you click the last table to give the check, click it again to clean it, then click the other 3 and dump em.

Go back to the podium, and unless anyone has under three hearts, you should be able to wait until you get a full heart and then seat 4 more groups. I try to seat the business women first and then the college kids, as they're more impatient.

Continue on this way and you'll get a rhythm going. seat four, take orders, podium, serve food, immediately give checks for all four and back track to clean up. Go to the podium and try to look for the best color bonuses while you're there so you can plan.

This took me a few tries and I did have to try to remain calm to get the best seating bonuses. If you lose even one table, you probably won't get there. Keep your eye on the business women and the college kids. If they are really angry, drop them in a seat, pick up their order and get them a drink. This will mess up your order chain, but it's better than losing them.

Hope this helps! Good Luck!

I only used the two 6 seaters, the two 4 seaters and only 2 of the 2 seaters. Ignore the counter and the other 2 seaters.

Seat only 4 groups at a time and watch your colors. Seat business women, college kids, girls, hot shots first, leave the old men 'til last.

Take all 4 order, drop them, podium, pick up all four orders, deliver them, podium. When all plates are clean, click all 4 to give checks and then backtrack all 4 to clean up.

I did give snacks if everyone in line was happy. Make sure you wait until ALL menus are down before you pick up orders so no one surprises you by asking for a snack before they order, lest you break your chain.

Same thing with clearing. Wait until all plates are clean, so they can't ask for snacks and mess you up.

I got expert doing it like this and it was smooth sailing. At the end, I had 5 or 6 groups of old men, who I sat all at the same time.

Good Luck!
