Food Foes--Mr Hot Dog, Mr. Egg, and Mr. Pickle--are trying to stop Chef Peter
Pepper from making gourmet burgers for hungry customers.
As Chef Peter Pepper you must stay cool as a cucumber while you move around
The
Pepper Grille, zipping across the tops of burger parts to make them drop into
the plates below. While cooking delicious burgers for your hungry customers,
you must try to flatten the pursuing Food Foes.

HERE'S HOW TO PLAY
The Cook's tour.
To build burgers for Chef Peter Pepper's' customers, move the Control Stick
up
or down to make the chef climb the ladders to different levels of the
kitchen.
Move the Control Stick to the left or right to zip the chef across burger
parts
to drop them down to the next lower level. Keep dropping burger parts until
you've built complete burgers on the plates at the very bottom of the
kitchen.
Build complete burgers and cook your way through six delicious scenes.
You earn points for each burger part you drop down a level. A cooking tip
from
the chef: Start at the top of the kitchen and work your way down. Drop a
burger part down on another and set a food chain going.
Add the Food Foes.
Lurking in The Pepper Grille are three playful, tricky types of Food
Foes--Mr.
Hot Dog, Mr. Egg and Mr. Pickle--who are cooking up trouble for Chef Peter
Pepper. While you're building burgers, keep an eye peeled for these foes.
Climb
up or down ladders or zip across burger parts to shake them off.
Getting creamed!
You start cooking with five chefs. If you get nabbed by any of the Food Foes,
you lose a chef. So if you get wounded by a weiner or scrambled by an egg,
pick yourself up, dust yourself off and keep on cookin'
Season with pepper.
Spice up your cooking and fight off the Food Foes with a weapon that's
nothing
to sneeze at--pinches of pepper. When a Food Foe gets too close for comfort.
turn to face him. Then press a Side Button or Action Button to fling a pinch
of
pepper at him. The pepper stuns, but doesn't eliminate the Food Foes. Once
they're stunned, you can move right through them. Any Food Foe within range
of the pepper can be stunned with one pinch!
But try to be as frugal as possible with your pinches of pepper. You only
have
so many and will need them to get out of sticky situations later on. The
higher
your skill level, the less pepper you start cooking with, and the more you
will need to keep out of the clutches of the Food Foes!
Get the drop on the Food Foes.
While you're building burgers, earn points by flattening those pesky Food
Foes.
The more foes you flatten, the more points you earn. To flatten a foe: Wait
above him on a level containing a burger part. When the foe is directly
underneath the burger part, move left or right across the part, dropping it
to flatten the foe.
Foil the Food Foes!
Those Food Foes really dog your heels. To foil them: Entice more than one foe
to
follow you. Wait for them to ketchup. Then slowly start across one of the
burger
parts. When the foes are right behind you, zip across! If you've timed it
right,
the foes should take a ride down on the burger part! You'll end up with
scrambled eggs, flattened hot dogs, and a lot more points! Drop more than two
foes on a burger part and they plummet more than one level.
Can't keep a good dog down.
Watch out--those little critters won't stay down long. After you flatten them
or
drop them into the kitchen, they quickly pop back up and get back on your
trail.
Time for a treat!
Anyone as hard-working as Chef Peter Pepper deserves treats. From time to
time
while you're building burgers, tempting treats--ice cream, hot coffee and
french
fries-appear in the center of The Pepper Grille. Grab them for bonus points
and
an extra pinch of pepper. But move fast. Delicious treats don't hang around
forever!
The weiner and still champion!
If you make four gourmet burgers for your customers, you earn an extra pinch
of
pepper for the next round of food wars. Congratulate yourself and relax--but
not
for too long --you've got more customers waiting!
Frankly, my dear ....
The hamburgers were good, but now it's time to add cheeseburgers to your
menu.
You cook them the same way you cook hamburgers. Zip across levels and drop
burger parts into the kitchen. The Food Foes are still skulking about--faster
than ever. And they've brought in more foes to pursue you!
In a real pickle
Now you're really cookin' But waiting in the wings is a real dilly--Mr.
Pickle!
He'll try to make you eat humble pie. Just stay cool as a cucumber and follow
your past recipe for success. You'll soon have him eating out of your hand!
Bigger and better
Your burgers were a big hit with your customers. But greater challenges await
you on three more savory scenes. Remember, the more burgers you build, the
more
Food Foes there are to pursue you--and they just keep on getting faster! So,
take care. Roll with the pinches and don't trust any of those devilish eggs!
Or else the yolk could be on you!
