A '''[[restaurant]]''' is a type of location in [[The Sims (series)|''The Sims'' series]] that allow Sims to eat out at [[community lot]]s without having to cook for themselves. They were first introduced in ''[[The Sims: Hot Date]]'', and later reintroduced in ''[[The Sims 2: Nightlife]]'' and ''[[The Sims 4: Dine Out]]''. ''[[The Sims 2: Open for Business]]'' and ''The Sims 4: Dine Out'' allowed Sims to run a restaurant in an owned [[business]], managing its staff, menu, and pricing. In these games, players are able to see inside the restaurant and direct their Sims around as usual once inside.

Restaurants in general consist of at least three employees—a host that seats customers; a server that delivers the food; and a chef that prepares the dishes. The restaurant will also require a podium for the host to be stationed at, a stove for the chef to cook with, and a sink or [[dishwasher]] for the servers to wash the dirty dishes in.

Restaurants appear in ''[[The Sims 3]]'' as [[rabbit hole]] locations that players cannot see into.

Bonehilda emerging from her coffin.

Bonehilda is an NPC that was introduced in The Sims: Makin' Magic, and later returned in The Sims 3: Supernatural and The Sims 4: Paranormal Stuff. She can be summoned from either a special upright coffin[TS:MM][TS3:SN] or by performing a seance[TS4:PS].

She mainly functions as a maid, with the ability to clean a Sim's house free of charge. However, depending on the game, she can also repair broken appliances, do laundry, tend to a garden, socialize, prepare meals, and care for children. As a walking skeleton, any human maids who see her while they are working may freak out and quit their job, and house guests will generally be tense in her presence. In haunted houses[TS4:PS], she is able to protect the residents by fighting off a vengeful spirit known as Temperance.

Bonehilda will occasionally grab a drink from a nearby bar, sink or refrigerator when she has nothing else to do, which will humorously flow right through her and leave a puddle on the floor. She also seems to be a fan of the Grim Reaper, and might stop to ask him for an autograph if he shows up[TS:MM].

Removing her skeletal appearance using cheats or mods results in a Sim that resembles the Grim Reaper[TS3:SN], or a light-skinned woman with long red hair and green eyes[TS4:PS].
