  • It costs 5,000 to travel to MM

    30,000 to open a store

    3,000 to return to BS

    Equipment is basically the same as BS, with same costs and skill points.

    Recipes start at 5,000 bucks. There are 16 new ones.

    Ingredients retained are green tea, milk, syrup, blueberry jam, cherry jam, cinnamon, chocolate, tomato soup, apple juice, flour and magic syrup.

    Customers include some of your old favorites (and some not so favorite), plus many vacationing returnees, plus the usual assortment of characters (MM Gossip, etc.).  There are a total of 47 different customers (I don't know if any of them morph into something else, like we have had done, that is just the basic number).

    Sounds like it is an expanded Brewers Square, with ingredients for some recipes not available in the shop and some ingredients in the shop not listed on the recipe list.

    I spent over 40 minutes investigating the site, writing up all the information so that I knew how much I would have to go with and how many more skill points I would need to acquire.

    I also opened my store, bought a drip coffee maker and an espresso machine, but didn't serve any customers. But I got there finally.

    happy
