Trivia[]
- A spin-off game, Restaurant DASH: Gordon Ramsay, was released around the same period as it slightly differs the technique from this Cooking Dash. Even though it features some of the returning characters in this game, it features new characters, replacing Flo and Cookie alongside VIPS and Auto Chefs, as Gordon Ramsay hosts the game. The spin-off was unsuccessful compared to Cooking Dash and was discontinued in 2023.
