A cute little rougelike deckbuilder combined with a slot machine. You add cards to your deck, spin the board pieces, and hope for combos. These are done by matching flavor types across an unlocked "line," 5 of which you have unlocked, the rest you need to unlock through your playthrough. There's also cards that play off each other, allowing for a variety of builds based on either specific foods or flavors in your deck, or certain mechanics (such as cards that eliminate themselves from the board).

You can choose from a variety of chefs, different animals that have different specialties and foods, and try your best to get the max number of satisfaction points per round. There is, of course, a shop that lets you spend your earning, either through buying utensils (permanent items) or sauces (usable items which can affect the number of points a line gets, upgrade or duplicate cards, or give you more utensil or sauce slots). I quite enjoyed it once I got the hang of it, and lost track of time while playing the demo. Plus it has adorable critters!

The achievements are in Chinese, but I feel that's incredibly minor for a game that is made by Chinese devs.

Also, spicy dumpling build is OP.

Four new roles with totally different styles have joined AnimalCafe—each has unique skills, and they’re ready to bring fresh energy to the restaurant.From Ollie, the young lady who’s great at Southeast Asian food and nails using all kinds of fruits, to Yueying, the mysterious role who’s a pro at mixing moonlight magic with food—every role has its own cooking style and exclusive recipe tree.
