Mahjong Restaurant
A layered kitchen board where plates, cakes and pans replace the traditional suits.
Mahjong Restaurant dresses the layered board in kitchen ware — plates, pans, cakes and cups sit on the tiles instead of bamboo and characters. SNSHUB built it as a pair-matching solitaire: two identical dishes vanish when both are open, and the pieces they were covering drop into play. A board is done when the last pair of plates leaves the table. The Deluxe Plus pile keeps the layered board and changes the shape.
A tile counts as open when nothing rests on top of it. No clock is attached to Mahjong Restaurant, so the pressure comes from the stack itself rather than a countdown; the later kitchens pile on more layers and free edges get scarce. Hint and shuffle buttons sit within reach when the plates stop pairing up. The same free-tile rule governs Daily Mahjong.
The build is HTML5 at 800 by 600 and answers a mouse click or a tap, so the same kitchen boards work on a phone as on a desktop. The full screen control is worth pressing here: the food icons differ by small details — two cakes, two mugs — and a bigger canvas makes those details readable. The Jungle Deluxe pile piles the tiles into a different silhouette.
Controls
Mouse, or tap on a touchscreen.
How to Play
- Scan the restaurant board for two identical dishes that have nothing stacked on top of them.
- Click the first plate, then its twin; the pair leaves the table and uncovers whatever sat beneath.
- Work the upper layers down so the buried kitchen tiles come into play.
- Press hint when the board looks dead, or shuffle to redeal the remaining dishes.
- Clear every pair to finish the kitchen and move to the next layout.
Tips & Tricks
- Uncover, do not just clear — a pair that frees two buried plates beats a pair on the edge that frees nothing.
- Read the topping first — Mahjong Restaurant repeats shapes, so check the garnish on a cake before you commit.
- Keep the shuffle in reserve — with no timer on the restaurant board you can study the stack before spending it.
- Play in full screen — the plate art is small at 800 by 600 and enlarges cleanly.
- Count the duplicates — four of a dish means two safe pairs; two means one careless click can strand them.
