Are you looking for Tuna?

Hello Chefs, 

There has been a lot of concern surrounding where and how to locate Tuna for the new sushi goals. The Japanese Fish Market expansion will be released in the next series of sushi quests. When available, this expansion will include a Tuna Boat for more access to Tuna. In the meantime here are some tips to locate Tuna

1. Neighbor restaurants are always a good source of the ingredient, just make sure to remind them to cook Tuna-based recipes! To increase your chances of collecting Tuna from dishes revisit the same neighbor multiples times using 5 of 5 actions on the available Tuna dish
Madeline is also a good Tuna resource. There is no guarantee to receive Tuna from Madeline but its worth a shot. 

2. Finish the Sushi Apprentice goal! You'll get 4 Tuna as a reward!

3. Use the Wholesale Station wisely! Remember that 1 Giant Tuna is equals to 10 Tuna.

Missing Catering Staff?

Fellow Chefs, 

It has been brought to our attention that users are missing crew members for their catering missions. Our QA team has researched the problem and they have a  few suggestions that will help ensure crew requests process correctly: 


- Every player has a limit of helping a maximum of 10 users at a time. If you sent a crew request to a friend, make sure they have room to be a helper! It's possible friends are accepting crew requests but not realizing they have already reached their helper limit. 

-Allow 15-20 minutes for crew requests to process. The ChefVille servers process millions of transactions, sometimes it takes a little longer for crews to update

-Refresh! Periodically refreshing ChefVille will make sure crew requests update once accepted and processed


We hope this information helps, also be sure to check out the Catering FAQ Page. Good luck!
