Pizza House Simulator Recipes and Menu

Pizza House Simulator is not a recipe book we can legally photocopy. The 19 August 2026 Steam release lets you prepare authentic pies from a ticket, stretch dough by hand, and sauce inside the line. This page is how to think about the menu so How to Make Pizza has a brain attached. We will not invent bake times. We will group work the way a real expo groups tickets.

Cook what was ordered

The failure mode is creativity. A guest ordered a simple pie. You added three extra toppings because they were in your hand. Bake time stretches, the next ticket dies, stars fall. Pin the recipe. In co-op, the dough person reads toppings out loud. The oven person does not “improve” the pie. Role split: co-op role planner.

Treat the menu as families, not as fifty unique crafts:

• Red simple — sauce and cheese, fastest teaching pie.
• Red loaded — more toppings, more board time, same oven respect.
• White or specialty — different sauce logic, easy to mix up in a rush.
• Specials tied to quests or holidays — cook them when the ticket says so, not because the dining room looks festive.

If a family is destroying your dinner, drop it from mental rotation until the line is stable. You cannot always control orders, but you can control mise en place: keep that family’s toppings together.

Ingredient news is a menu mechanic

Radio and newspapers telegraph farmer strikes and price shocks. Tomatoes, flour, oil—whatever the broadcast names—should change how aggressive you are, not how you stretch. If sauce is about to get expensive, stop wasting ladles on the board. If dough inputs spike, stop panic-stretching skins you will burn. That is empire play leaking into the kitchen. Playstyles covers loans and stocks. This page only asks you to hear the radio while you sauce.

Restock visuals matter. Demo-era patches made empty dough, oil, and sauce-powder containers obvious. Believe the empty mesh. A “secret extra scoop” is not a recipe; it is a dry bin in rush hour.

Training menu for week one

Day one: one family until muscle memory exists. See Getting Started. Day two: two families that share a sauce. Day three: add a specialty only if you can still repair a coughing station. Kitchen upgrades should follow the family that is actually late—not the one that looks premium on the pass.

Do not let chat design the menu. Twitch and Kick guests will order chaos. Sandbox is for chaos. Story mode is for a shop that still exists on Monday.

Quality bar that is not a spreadsheet

• Even stretch, no paper-thin patches.
• Sauce inside the crust.
• Toppings that match the pin.
• Oven pull on color, not on panic.
• Table number called.

If those five are true, the “recipe” worked. If a patch adds a recipe book with numbers, we will update launch notes and this page together. Until then, the stone is the teacher.

If a holiday event adds a one-week pie, treat it as a fifth family with its own tray, not as a reason to rebuild the entire line. Event food is how rushes die: extra board time, same oven. Park it on a side board if the layout allows, or refuse to prep it until the normal tickets are green. The Kitchen Hub is the parent of this page; upgrades and mottos wait until the ticket is honest.

Return to the Kitchen Hub for upgrades and mottos. How-tos: Guides Hub. Checklist: first-shift checklist. Store: Links Hub. Keep one spare dough skin only if the stone has a gap. A spare that waits is a burn. News about flour is a reason to stop panic stretching, not a reason to invent a house pie. Event food is a fifth family with its own tray, not an excuse to rebuild the line mid-rush.
