Kitchen notes
What's New
What has changed at Chez Good, newest first.
November 2026
The Contrarian and the Saucier
- Two new Brigade roles on the À la carte menu. The Contrarian can send back one dish they cook on and flip its verdict. The Saucier (5+ players) tastes two players together and learns whether they're on the same side.
- When the Expediter corrects a card, the reveal now says whose card it was.
- Every role power now has its own button or picker at the table.
- The Cashier sees each ballot as it comes in, and posted Comment Cards stay on the board.

Rats in the kitchen
- The Moles are now the Rats — and they look the part.
- Every player icon is repainted to match the candlelit dining room.
- Octavius Gloat now watches from the end of the counter and lets you know what he made of the last course. At the Nightcap, the soufflé sinks as the clock runs down.
October 2026
Grand opening
- The full cast: 11 Brigade and 11 Mole roles, each with its own gouache portrait, for tables of 4 to 10.
- Call Out: a Mole can name a special Brigade role during Pick. Guess right and that cook is chained in the walk-in cooler; guess wrong and the Mole is outed.
- Six endgame moments, from Not So Fast through the Unmasking, the soufflé clock, the Poisoner's vial and the Tasting to the Morning Review.
- Player icons: every cook gets a random kitchen-character icon on joining and can swap it in the lobby.
- Reservation Codes, Prix Fixe, Chef's Pick and À la Carte role sets, and bots for when you're short a cook.
