Gameplay in Brief:

Players are waiters trying to serve their dishes before their opponents do the same. Poker-style chips (white, green, red, and blue) represent four types of dishes: soup, salad, pizza, and blueberry pie. There are also four types of cards, each matching the color of one of the dishes.

On a turn, you choose two cards to play. The right half of one card is combined with the left half of the other card to determine your action (such as delivering a dish, or moving a complaining customer to block an opponent). The first team to serve all of its food wins.

The Basics:

For 2 to 4 players (best with 4 as a partnership game, although it can also be played as a non-partnership game), ages 10 and up. About 30 minutes per game.
