A new 15-second Dine Out teaser shows you basically everything that can go wrong when you take your Sims to dinner. Banquette cuddling interrupted by dishes crashing, kids fighting and even an old woman farting at the table. How will your Sims react?
No one wants tootin' grandmas at the dinner table, right? Ahhh, that's better! _ #TS4DineOuthttps://t.co/HaX3OzjUOy

The Sims has also posted all the work uniforms included in Dine Out to their official Instagram, or should I say ‘Simstagram’ page.
The Sims dev team has also confirmed Dine Out includes updated indoor graphics. Wow, that bedroom is simply breathtaking.
We spotted a food critic at the end of the first trailer, but the game pack description (via Game.co.uk) reveals restaurants actually have their own rating system. As a manager/owner, chat up diners to make sure they have the best experience possible. It’s unclear how exactly the food critic’s review comes into play, but the better your restaurant is, the more money you’ll make. The description also clears up the question of whether or not Sims will be able to cook these ‘experimental’ dishes at home, and the answer is yes.
Create Unique Restaurants – Build a variety of restaurant venues from a classic diner to an upscale Italian bistro, or customise pre-made restaurants using new objects and décor. Personalise your space by adding an outdoor patio, comfy booth seating, or unique signage. The choice is yours!
Become an Owner – You are in control of owning and running a restaurant. Hire and outfit staff, set the menu and prices, and chat up diners to improve customer satisfaction. Strive for a five-star rating or build a multi-restaurant empire to rake in the Simoleons!
Dine Out with Your Sims – Take your Sims out to enjoy a delicious meal with exceptional service. Restaurants are the perfect place to catch up with friends over brunch, spend time with family, or have a romantic date, all without having to do the dishes.
Experiment with New Food – Sims with adventurous tastes can dig into new experimental cuisine that looks almost too good to eat! Serious foodies can snap food selfies to memorialise these edible masterpieces or learn to cook them at home.
A few GIFs posted to The Sims twitter account also show a few new quirky interactions. Your Sims may be greeted by a sassy host, and watch out, your waiter may not have the best balance.
