NEW TRUCK

There's a new truck in town!

The Nomad MunchMobile offers a different take on the serving window position to give you even more floor space to play with. How will you layout your interior with this new take? There is also a variant for this truck called the Beachgoer!

2 NEW CUSTOMERS & 2 NEW MANAGERS

2 new residents have moved into Chestnut Ridge! Say hello to the Lawyers. They may be quite picky in what they order and will only turn up in the more built up locations, but they're sure to spend more money than most!

Thanks to the two winners of the August 2024 Manager Competition, there are 2 new managers available! Hire Timothée Chowmein or Hans Grubber today!
