Culinary Experiments is a competition between players where you need to climb the rankings by collecting lightning bolts. Players in the top spots receive a reward at the end of the event. Culinary Experiments are held in your most recently available restaurant and also in levels of the Food Truck and Creighton's Challenge events.

To collect lightning bolts, you need to complete a level in your most recently available restaurant or in the Food Truck and Creighton's Challenge events as quickly as possible. Players receive lightning bolts for the time left over after a level.

Leagues are the groups of players formed by the number of lightning bolts collected. The value of the reward received after the event ends depends on which place and league a player is in.
