How to Unlock Chez Remy (Remy’s Restaurant)

Remy is one of the first characters that players can welcome to Dreamlight Valley. This is done by unlocking the Ratatouille Realm within the Dream Castle and completing his introductory quest, “An Important Night at the Restaurant.” This quest involves assisting Remy with creating numerous dishes, culminating in the preparation of a perfect plate of Ratatouille.

Once the player has completed this quest, they can invite Remy to Dreamlight Valley and can place his home. Placing Remy’s Home will cost the player 2,000 Star Coins and must be done before proceeding to unlock and restore Chez Remy to its former glory. After completing a few Story Quests for Scrooge McDuck and opening his store by completing "Scrooge McDuck's Grand Re-opening," the player will be able to receive a new quest from Remy.

The player can then accept the quest “A Restaurant Makeover,” in which they assist Remy with the renovation of Chez Remy by purchasing a Furniture Kit at Scrooge’s Store for 2,000 Star Coins and retrieving assorted cooking ingredients. Completing this quest allows the player to open Remy’s Restaurant.

Once the player has unlocked Chez Remy, they can visit the restaurant to take advantage of various amenities. They will be able to purchase select ingredients from the kitchen store and can use Remy’s stove to prepare meals if they’d like. Additionally, characters will start to visit the restaurant and order dishes, which the player can serve to them to increase friendship.

Remy’s Store in Chez Remy

Unlocking Remy’s Restaurant grants the player access to a store within Remy’s kitchen that offers exclusive ingredients the player can’t obtain anywhere else. Initially, the store will feature four ingredients for sale: Milk, Butter, Eggs, and Cheese. The player can unlock two additional ingredients, Peanuts and Slush Ice, by completing Remy’s friendship quests.

• Peanuts are unlocked by completing the quest, “Remy’s Recipe Book,” available upon reaching Friendship Level 4 with Remy.
• Slush Ice is unlocked by completing the quest “The Unknown Flavor,” available upon reaching Friendship Level 10 with Remy.

Once both of these quests have been completed, the store in Remy's Kitchen within Chez Remy will sell the following ingredients in unlimited quantities:

Upgrading Remy’s Restaurant

Chez Remy can be upgraded a total of two times by interacting with the construction sign outside the building and paying Scrooge McDuck. The first upgrade costs 10,000 Star Coins and improves the restaurant’s exterior while unlocking two additional tables for guests.

The second and final upgrade to Remy’s Restaurant costs 25,000 Star Coins. This upgrade adds a second floor to the exterior, which is non-functional and for appearances only, along with an additional table.

When Each Character Is at Remy’s Restaurant

Most characters in Disney Dreamlight Valley will visit Remy’s Restaurant at certain times of the day. Between these hours, the player can find the character seated at one of the tables and requesting a specific dish. The dishes they order are randomly selected and will not change if the player exits and reenters the restaurant.

The player can prepare the requested dishes in Remy’s kitchen if necessary, then speak with the character to give them their order. The player must have the prepared dish in their inventory in order to serve it to the guest and receive friendship points.
