Bistro

A bistro a rabbit hole restaurant found in The Sims 3.

Gameplay description

This is a luxury restaurant where Sims can get a job in the Culinary career or attend a Cooking class. It is a high-end version of the diner rabbit hole and performs most of the same functions.

At the location, Sims can either have a drink, eat inside or eat outside. Sims will automatically change into their formal clothes before entering (when eating inside). This is one of the properties Sims can partner with and own in The Sims 3.

Bistros generate the following red map tag in-game:

A bistro opens from 11am to 11pm. Eating at the Bistro can earn Sims the following moodlets:

Moodlet Name	Mood Effect	Time Period	Game Dialog/Description	Notes
Great Meal	+25-35 Mood	8 Hours	Great meals can be rare, but when a Sim dines upon such a delicious feast, it will be remembered for some time.	Very Nice to Great quality food. Or high quality dried food if the Sims does not have the Snob trait.
Stuffed	No Mood Effect	3 Hours	Forcing Sims to eat when they are not hungry may lead to a loss of appetite and weight gain.	Eating with this moodlet makes Sim fatter. Appears when eating while not hungry. Less likely to experience weight gain with the Fast Metabolism lifetime reward.
Divine Meal	+75 mood	7 days	(Sim Name) has experienced a meal so exquisite, so divine, that it defies description.	This moodlet is not a regular one you can get from here, it is available via a 2 choice event at the bistro.
