Kirby earning Gourmet Points to increase his Gourmet Rank in Kirby's Dream Buffet.

Gourmet Rank is a level-based system in Kirby's Dream Buffet which is used to progressively unlock new features for the player to make use of in the game. A player's Gourmet Rank starts at Level 1 on a fresh save file and progresses up to Level 135, rising when the player cashes in strawberries earned from events. Each level requires more points than the last, which accumulate rather than reset with each level gained.

Conversion and multipliers[edit]

Gourmet Points are earned by collecting strawberries, and each strawberry is worth one Gourmet Point. In addition, there are multipliers that can be added on at the end of a match based on certain factors, as follows:

  • Grand-Prix Bonus: X 1.05 - Earned for playing the Grand Prix mode.
  • Spicy Bonus: X 1.20 - Earned for playing against CPU opponents on the "Spicy" difficulty.
  • Extra-Spicy Bonus: X 1.25 - Earned for playing against CPU opponents on the "Extra-Spicy" difficulty.
  • Online Bonus: X 1.80 - Earned for playing online matches.

Any time multiple bonuses are earned, they will combine together, but still show as "one" bonus (ex: "Grand-Prix Bonus: X 1.30" for the Grand Prix + Extra-Spicy bonus).

List of rewards[edit]

The following is a complete list of all the rewards and point thresholds for attaining each Gourmet Rank level in Kirby's Dream Buffet. Points will continue to accumulate after reaching the max rank, but do not unlock anything extra:
