[[Sora]], [[Donald]], and [[Goofy]] encounter Little Chef in the woods, where he is pursued by a group of [[Heartless]] and has left a group of fruits on the ground. After the trio save him, they prepare to leave, but Little Chef takes control of Sora and uses him to collect his fruits. Sora ultimately collects the fruits on his own, but is unable to understand Little Chef's intent to cook with them, and the trio bid Little Chef farewell.

After a visit to the [[Old Mansion]], Sora and company pass by Le Grand Bistrot, where they encounter Scrooge. Scrooge offers the trio a ''tarte aux fruits'' that Little Chef made as a token of gratitude for them rescuing him from the Heartless, and introduces Little Chef as the chef of the bistrot. As Little Chef wants to cook more culinary delights for Sora and company, Scrooge has the trio collect ingredients for Little Chef. As the trio collect ingredients on their quest, they often visit the restaurant, with Sora and Little Chef cooking meals and raising the restaurant to five stars.

During their travels, Sora and company are contacted by [[Chip and Dale]], who inform them that [[Merlin]] is waiting for them to have a cup of tea. Realizing that Merlin is waiting for them at Le Grand Bistrot, the trio set forth to Twilight Town, where they encounter Merlin. At the restaurant, Merlin explains that Sora is missing on the cover of the [[Old Book]], the home of the [[100 Acre Wood]], and has Sora enter the book to reconnect with his friends. Sora learns that his fall to darkness by Xehanort had caused his removal from the cover and [[Pooh]]'s heart, and realizes that his connections are becoming weaker.

Dishes that can be cooked are separated into two menus: the {{Nihongo|'''Classic Menu'''|グランドメニュー|Gurando Menyū|lit. "Grand Menu"}} and the {{Nihongo|'''Special Menu'''|スペシャルメニュー|Supesharu Menyū}}. The Special Menu has generally higher-difficulty mini-games, and requires rare ingredients, such as those from the [[Flantastic Seven]].

The screen will darken as the mini-game progresses, and red ribbons and sparks of "imagination" will steadily form around Sora. These sparks indicate the correct timing of the final cooking action (the fire input for the flambé, the {{button|l1}} and {{button|r1}} input for the egg, etc).

* '''Chop the Ingredients''': {{button|lana}} can be used rapidly, and there is no penalty for chopping while Sora does not hold an ingredient (aside from simply wasting time). Therefore, tilt {{button|lana}} as rapidly as possible, and tap the {{button|rana}} just when the icon on the right lights up.

* '''Crack the Egg''': Hold down {{button|l1}} for the entire mini-game. Pull {{button|lana}} and {{button|rana}} apart slowly, and when the red sparks appear, hold the sticks where they are and press {{button|r1}} gently. Do not move the sticks any farther at that point, or the mini-game will fail. A common mistake is pulling the sticks too far - pressing {{button|l1}} and {{button|r1}} suddenly with a lot of force can also cause the sticks to move accidentally. Holding {{button|l1}} in advance mitigates this possibility.

To make this easier, Sora can equip the Chef Extraordinaire ability, which is available on two [[Gourmand's Ring]]s and the [[Grand Chef]] Keyblade. The ability's effect will stack if he equips multiple instances of it.

* The Grand Chef Keyblade is obtained by earning an "excellent" rating on the 20 Classic Menu dishes. Note that the Special Menu dishes are not required to obtain this, so it can be earned before attempting the Special Menu entirely.

Also note that the Bistrot will trigger an auto-save immediately upon finishing a mini-game. If the game is exited to the title screen and re-entered with the "continue" option, then this auto-save will be used, meaning the ingredients will still be lost. If a particular mini-game is difficult to clear, manually save the game outside of the bistrot and then attempt the dish. If it fails, then exit to the title screen and select "load game" instead of "continue" to load the save before the dish was attempted.

==Trivia==
{{stub}}
* The French messages in the menu at the entrance of Le Grand Bistrot read:
** "Tout le monde ne peut pas être un grand artiste, mais les grands artistes peuvent venir de n'importe où." ({{LangFra|Not everyone can be a great artist, but great artists can come from anywhere.}}) This message quotes a line from the Disney-Pixar film ''{{w|Ratatouille (film)|Ratatouille}}'', taken from Anton Ego's review of Gusteau's.
** "Ne laissez personne vous imposer des limites, sous pretexte de vos origines." ({{LangFra|Don't let anyone impose limits on you, under the pretext of your origins.}})
** "Votre seule limite, est votre âme." ({{LangFra|Your only limit is your soul.}})
** "Tout le monde peut cuisiner, mais seuls les audacieux peuvent attcindre l'excellence." ({{LangFra|Everyone can cook, but only the daring can achieve excellence.}})
