Surprise du Chef!

All famous chefs are cooking tonight only for me!

A la mesa is a creative cooking game designed by Josep M. Allué and Yohan Goh. In a round, one player takes the role of a "guest", while the other players become chefs and draft four ingredient cards. Before doing this, the guest draws as many condition cards as the number of chefs, then gives one card to each chef.

After drafting their ingredients, each chef presents their dish, explaining how they prepared it, after which the guest awards victory tokens according to their favor. Then another player becomes the guest to play the next round. The game ends after each player has finished their three dishes, and whoever has collected the most victory tokens wins.
