Chef Tasks

Chef Tasks are unlockable in-game achievements in Pizza Tower. There are 72 (74 during the Pumpkin Hunt event) tasks in total, separated in-game between each floor. After completing all tasks of a floor, the floor's Chef Tasks door turns golden. Chef Tasks are unlocked per save file, but the first time a task is completed, the equivalent Steam achievement is simultaneously unlocked.

Completing every chef task (except for P-rank chef tasks and Tricky Treat chef tasks) unlocks the Goldemanne clothes.

Tasks

Tower Lobby
Name	Location	Description	Notes
John Gutted		Destroy all the Dead John Blocks in John Gutter.	Dead John Blocks appear across most of the level, and take the appearance of a small or tall block with Pillar John's face on it. All of them can be found on the player's main path, and while some are required to be destroyed, can all be encountered very easily.
Let's Make This Quick		Finish John Gutter in under two minutes.	There is a timer in the settings that can be toggled to show how much time the player has spent on a level if set to "per level". Optionally, the player can use "both" setting to see their time on both the level and their save file.
Primate Rage		Get a combo of 99 or more in John Gutter.	There are a total of 99 enemies in the entire level that are all required to be killed, including in Lap 2.
Shining Armor		Get to all the priests without bumping into a wall once in Pizzascape.	There are five priests in total that must be reached. With the Knight transformation, jumping and then performing a Down Thrust can be used to stop sliding, which makes completing this chef task significantly easier.
Spoonknight		Parry ten Forknights in Pizzascape.	Using the taunt when the player is about to get touched by a Forknight's fork will parry and defeat them. Stunning a Forknight and then parrying it helps to complete it quicker.
Spherical		Kill another enemy while in the ball form in Pizzascape.	The Ball transformation is gained from being kicked by a Pepperoni Goblin.
Thrill Seeker		Finish Ancient Cheese without getting hurt by an explosion.	Entering any Secret Eyes is not required.
Volleybomb		Kill a rat using a bomb dropped by an enemy in Ancient Cheese.	Bombs from Pizza Box Goblins must be used. This chef task can be completed easily in the room after the Tomato toppin while accessing the second Secret Eye by taking the bomb from the nearby Pizza Box Goblin.
Delicacy		Make more than forty one sets of cheese platforms crumble in Ancient Cheese.	This requires the player to make a total of 349 cheese platform blocks crumble. This can be done faster by running over the same set of Cheese Blocks multiple times.
Very Very Hot Sauce		Finish Bloodsauce Dungeon without touching lava once.	Entering any Secret Eyes is not required.
Eruption Man		During escape, go up with the superjump for more than two seconds in Bloodsauce Dungeon.	This is done in a vertical hallway that connects the light blue and dark red areas of the level.
Unsliced Pizzaman		Finish Bloodsauce Dungeon without getting hurt by a pizza cutter.	Entering any Secret Eyes is not required.
The Critic		Defeat Pepperman without getting hurt.	This achievement's name appears only after defeating the boss.
S Ranked #1	Tower Lobby	Get all S Ranks in World 1.	Bosses do not count. P-ranks do count.

Western District
Name	Location	Description	Notes
Peppino's Rain Dance		Reactivate a totem by dancing with the mach dash in Oregano Desert.	This can be done by finding a deactivated totem and drifting around it a few times with the Mach Run.
Unnecessary Violence		Kill all of the clerk sausages in the pizzamarts.	There are exactly five Pizzamarts: three which appear in the main level, and two accessible during Pizza Time.
Alien Cow		Don't get hit by a single cow in Oregano Desert.	Jumping at full height over a Cow will avoid them. The player can choose to avoid the third Secret Eye and the two Pizzamarts accessible during Pizza Time that contain Cows to complete the chef task more easily.
Ghosted		Avoid getting touched by the John Ghost in Wasteyard.	The John Ghost only appears after exiting the room with Pillar John. He does not appear in the room with the exit gate.
Pretend Ghost		Kill 20 or more enemies as a ghost in Wasteyard.	The twentieth enemy that can be defeated with the Ghost transformation, a Bandito Chicken, appears during Pizza Time. Entering the second Secret Eye or killing enemies in Lap 2 will also help.
Alive and Well		Surf every corpse in Wasteyard.	There are ten Corpses total throughout the level, all of which are accessible in the main path.
No One Is Safe		Kill three unreachable enemies at once with the supertaunt in Fun Farm.	This can be done during Pizza Time in a room with four Peasantos under the floor. The supertaunt becomes available after reaching a combo of 10.
Cube Menace		Find and destroy the Mort Cube.	The Mort Cube is located under the ledge on the far right of the second room with Mort Hooks.
Good Egg		Complete Fun Farm while avoiding getting hurt with Mort on you.	Falling into a pit with Mort counts as getting hurt. However, getting the Fireass transformation from a Peasanto does not count as getting hurt.
Non-Alcoholic		Destroy nearly every beer bottle in Fastfood Saloon.	There are a handful of bottles in the Pizza Portal room that can be missed if the player does not enter.
Already Pressed		Activate each button only once in Fastfood Saloon.	Timed Gate Buttons in secret rooms are not required. The task is counted against if the player touches a button more than once under any circumstance. During Pizza Time in the room previously with a key, the player must take the ladder down to avoid touching the room's Timed Gate Button twice.
Royal Flush		Touch every single card in Fastfood Saloon.	Flush cards found in secret rooms are not required.

Vacation Resort
Name	Location	Description	Notes
Blowback		Kill a cannon goblin with his own bomb in Crust Cove.	Parrying the cannonball will reflect it back at the Cannon Pizza Goblin that fired it.
X		Uncover all the treasure guys in Crust Cove.	There are seven Treasure Chest Guys in total, indicated by a red X on the ground hinting at their location. The Treasure Chest Guys do not have to be defeated for the task to be completed. At the beginning of the level, just to the right of the exit gate. At the beginning of the second room, at the top of the left cliff. Near the Tower Secret Treasure door, on top of a platform to its left.

Bee Nice		Stand next to a bee and taunt in Gnome Forest.	Supertaunting counts.
Lumberjack		Destroy every wood block in Gnome Forest.	The Lap 2 room also contains Breakable Wood Blocks.
Bullseye		Kill a Noise Goblin with his own arrow in Gnome Forest.	Parrying the arrow will reflect it back towards the Noise Goblin. When playing as The Noise, taunting near a waving Noise Goblin will make them launch an arrow, allowing the player to complete the task.
Turbo Tunnel		Avoid hitting the ceiling during the room right after Pillar John in Deep Dish Nine.	Using the Anti-gravitational Olive is optional; Mach Running up the walls counts.
Man Meteor		Kill 5 UFOlives in a single bodyslam in Deep Dish Nine.	This can be done near the bottom of the third room of the first planet section, which contains a vertical line of five U.F.Olives.
Blast'Em Asteroids		Destroy all asteroids in Deep Dish Nine.	There is one hidden Asteroid that blocks the third Secret Eye.
Primo Golfer		Get the highest rank in the courses of Golf.	The player must obtain a Primo Burg in every course. This means getting Greaseball into the goal without hitting him more than a specific amount of times, which can be seen on the HUD. When playing as The Noise, this achievement can be earned by simply completing every course, because the par for each course is automatically raised to guarantee a Primo Burg.
Nice Shot		Kill three or more enemies in a single stroke in Golf.	To complete this chef task easily, get to the Final Course and then simply grab and hit Greaseball straight to the right, where he will kill two enemies. Afterwards, keep a short distance away from the stationary Golf Demon so that Greaseball can walk into and kill it as the third enemy.
Helpful Burger		Get a burger enemy to hit the ball inside the goal in Golf.	This achievement can be obtained on the Soda Course, where at the end, the player must have a Burger Golfer hit Greaseball towards a Big Cheese who will then throw Greaseball into the net. It is also possible to grab a Burger Golfer and crouch to put him down.
Denoise		Defeat The Noise without getting hurt.	This achievement's name appears only after defeating the boss. The Doise also counts for this achievement, and it can be automatically earned if the player revisits his arena after defeating him once.
S Ranked #3	Vacation Resort	Get all S Ranks in World 3.	Bosses do not count. P-ranks do count.
P Ranked #3		Get all P Ranks in World 3.	Bosses do not count. Appears in the Chef Tasks room only after unlocking the achievement.

Slum
Name	Location	Description	Notes
Pan Fried		Find the bacon room.	Located in the third Taxi room, above the fake Taxi. Its location is hinted at with bacon sticking out of the ceiling.
Strike!		Kill three or more enemies with a single Brick ball in Pig City.	The player can do this in the first room after transforming into Gustavo and Brick in a small pit and wait for three Shrimp Thugs to group together, or before the Pillar John room, as there are three Pizza Slugs lined up; however, the player must keep moving to avoid Brick hitting the edge of the screen. If playing as The Noise, a special Rat Ball will be placed near the end of the level where Pillar John is located and will count for the Chef Task.
Say Oink!		Take a photo with every Pig City citizen.	The player needs to taunt next to every Pig Citizen in the level. The dancing Pig Citizens do not count.
Unflattening		Remove the boxxed form from each priest at least once in Peppibot Factory.	Getting hurt will cause the player to lose the Boxed Transformation, which can be detrimental in the Outlet room during Pizza Time due to being unable to get it again. Completing the third Secret Eye is required, as otherwise the player will not be able to interact with one of the Priests.
Whoop This!		Survive the first secret of Peppibot Factory without getting hurt.	All eleven Elite Weenies must be defeated before leaving. Walking to the left of the room and supertaunting will make it easier for the player to defeat every Elite Weenie and avoid their projectiles.
There Can Be Only One		Destroy every Peppino robot in Peppibot Factory.	The player must kill almost every Peppibot in the level, including in Lap 2, which leaves one missed Peppibot to spare.
Can't Fool Me		Avoid killing any Pizzaboy cardboard in Oh Shit!	Disguised Ninja Slices are colored differently compared to regular Pizzaboy cutouts, except red ones. Getting close to a Pizzaboy cutout will reveal whether it is a real Pizzaboy or a disguised Ninja Slice. Supertaunting will destroy Pizzaboy cutouts.
Food Clan		Kill ten ninjas by parrying them in Oh Shit!	An easy way is to parry the Ninja Slice's jumping attack when they exit their disguise.
Penny Pincher		Avoid getting grabbed by Mr Pinch during the escape sequence of Oh Shit!	Superjumping into the door that leads into the tight sewer section of Pizza Time will skip a trash jumping section that requires getting pinched.
Frozen Nuggets		Free all the frozen birds in Refrigerator-Refrigerador-Freezerator.	There are twelve birds frozen in Ice Blocks that can be freed by destroying the blocks with a Jetpack or with the Pepper Pizza transformation. Blocks containing birds have a unique sprite which shows the bird frozen inside.
Season's Greetings		Kill 5 fake santas in Refrigerator-Refrigerador-Freezerator.	Fake Santas can be defeated by throwing an enemy at them or with a supertaunt. The player cannot grab an enemy with the Pepper Pizza transformation, so supertaunting becomes the only option.
Ice Climber		Complete Refrigerator-Refrigerador-Freezerator without falling in a pit.	Falling into a pit in a secret room counts against this achievement. However, entering any Secret Eyes is not required. This chef task is much more easily done with the Noise as he is given access to the Pepper Pizza's flying ability at the start of the level.
Faker		Defeat Fake Peppino without getting hurt.	This achievement's name appears only after defeating the boss.
S Ranked #4	Slum	Get all S Ranks in World 4.	Bosses do not count. P-ranks do count.
P Ranked #4		Get all P Ranks in World 4.	Bosses do not count. Appears in the Chef Tasks room only after unlocking the achievement.

Let Them Sleep		Activate the alarms in Don't Make A Sound less than six times before the escape sequence.	There are five rooms with Patrollers that cannot be avoided, leaving the player with no spare alarms. The first mandatory Patroller is in the first room with the Mushroom Toppin Monster. The second is in the room with the second Secret Eye and the Cheese Toppin Monster. The third is in the room with the first Sausage Toppin Monster. The fourth is the following room with another Sausage Toppin Monster. The fifth and last mandatory Patroller is the chase with the four Toppin Monsters before getting the Shotgun. Patrollers activated in any secret room do not count.
Jumpspared		Avoid getting jumpscared in Don't Make A Sound.	Because getting caught by a Toppin Monster will remove the player's combo, P-ranking the level is an acceptable method.
Decorated Veteran		Don't get hurt more than three times in WAR.
Sharpshooter		Don't miss more than three shots in WAR.	Hitting projectiles or breakable blocks do not count against the achievement, but shooting downwards without hitting anything does. The player must utilize the Dive Drop.
