The Sims 4 Dine Out comes with over 130 new Items! That includes new Objects, Wallpapers, Floor Tiles, Half Wall Trims and basically everything else that can be found in Build Mode.
Down below you can find a scattered collection of all the new Items, and even more down below you will find a full list of new Items. Enjoy!
Although Create A Sim Custom Content will work after the latest Patch, the CAS Items won’t be unisex but only available for the gender they were originally designed.

Mod The Sims member necrodog created a Mod for The Sims 4 that not only introduces 6 new Pizza Recipes, but also lets you Bake them in the comfort of your Home using a custom-made oven!
The 1,000 Simoleon-worth Rustic Clay Oven has a special ‘Bake Pizza’ interaction (among other basic stove interactions) that will allow you to bake 6 following Pizza recipes:
Using the mixture of previous baking animations, necrodog made the whole process of baking Pizza realistic!

You can get this Mod by clicking the download button below. I tested it myself and it works flawlessly with the latest update.
The latest patch has made a small change to the XML code used in buff files, renaming “gameplay_effect_modifiers” to “gameplay_effect_modifier” (note the lack of plural). In this small change, buffs that use the old name no longer work.
This means that gameplay modifiers, such as changes to need and skill rates, applied to buffs will no longer work. This includes the vast majority of custom traits.
I have created a special tool that reads .package files and automatically performs a find-and-replace on buff resources. If you are a mod user, you can simply run the program and you’ll be able to use the mods again without redownloading anything (assuming that nothing else broke with the patch). If you are a mod creator, you can run the program and then reupload the package.
You can run the repair tool on multiple .package files at once. I recommend running it on every gameplay mod you have, to ensure that all the effects work properly.
You can download the tool by clicking the download button below!
UPDATE: The Stream has now ended. Down below you can watch the Replay! The broadcast begins @ 14:18.
The Sims Team will be playing The Sims 4 Dine Out and answer your questions about this Game Pack in a livestream below. The livestream starts at 1PM EDT. We’ll update this post with a replay once the livestream is over!
The June 2016 update for The Sims 4 added more gender options for Sims. One of those options is if the Sim will be able to be pregnant or be able to impregnate other Sims. With this option same-sex couples will be able to become pregnant and have children with no adoption or mods required! If you already have a same-sex couple in your game and you want them to have kids, follow these easy steps demonstrated by the Larson family and the Matson Family:

Firstly, go to a dresser and select “Change Sim”
When CAS has loaded go to the custom gender settings.
If you have a gay couple, choose the “Become Pregnant” option for one of the Sims. Make sure their partner has the “Get others pregnant” option selected
If you have a lesbian couple, choose the “Get others pregnant” option for one of your Sims. Make sure their partner has the “Become Pregnant” option selected.
And that’s it! Your couple should now have the “Try for Baby” interaction!
Your Sims can now Drink Water from the Sink! Simply click on the Sink and select ‘Get Water’. There aren’t any new buffs of special features with this, but new interactions are always welcome!

Attach Table to Chair
Previously, you were only able to attach a Chair to the Table. Now you can move the Table and attach it to the Chair as well! The Update also added a new light-green interface when a Table is selected – highlighting all the content that’s attached to the Table.

New Food Thumbnails
Food Thumbnails have been improved and now show food in better light! These thumbnails will appear whenever you select the ”Cook” interaction, or when you have food stored in your inventory.
Ask to Just Be Friends Interaction
A Sim who is romantically involved with another Sim can ask his/her romantic interest if they can just be friends. This will remove any progress made in the Romantic Relationship Bar.
Age Tags
During a conversation, the age information will show up when you hover over the Sim Thumbnail. These Age Tags have also been added to The Gallery.
Resize Paint from Reference Paintings
Previously, you weren’t able to resize Paint from Reference Paintings using the Shift + ] tool in Build Mode. Now, the resize feature is finally unlocked for Paint from Reference Paintings!

This Update unlocks all 6 Voice Types for both genders! The first 3 icons are Female Voices, while the last 3 icons are Male Voices.
Change Sim Option
You’ll be able to customize your Sim’s gender any time by clicking the Closet / Mirror and selecting the option Change Sim.
Using this Option, not only will you be able to customize your Sim’s Gender, but also customize your Sim’s body and face by using the good ol’ push and pull features.

This Update unlocks so much creativity for you to unleash! Even though the Live Mode features are pretty much the same, the stories you’ll be able to tell with the help of Gender Customization Features are limitless!
With today’s patch, CAS CC should continue to function as it did previously.
However we intentionally do not allow legacy CC to be used on the opposite gender or opposite gendered frame. This is because there are new authoring requirements in order for CAS parts to work in the new system. So CAS CC will need to be updated to work with opposite genders.
Full technical details for community tool makers are available here.
The XML tuning in the new patch released today reveals what could point to features in The Sims 4 Dine Out and the upcoming Kids-themed Stuff Pack.
Please note: the existence of this code only indicates that the features were planned at one point in development. It is possible for some of them to have been removed.
Tags of note are Func_Booth_Banquette, Func_PuppetTheater and Func_BattleStation which are features that haven’t been announced yet. Func_Collection_Monsters may refer to a feature in the upcoming Kids Stuff Pack.
restaurants.chefs_choice
A new tuning resource, restaurants.chefs_choice, reveals the existence of a “Chef’s Choice” feature. It is also indicates that the choice will vary depending on the time of day, and will be restricted for Child Sims.
restaurants.restaurant_tuning
There are six preset menu types: American, Italian, Seafood, Experimental, Brunch and Homechef.
The available food qualities are Grade F, Standard, Fresh Organic and Sustainably Grown
You can advertise your restaurant similar to how you can advertise retail stores.
The game differentiates between appetizers, main courses and desserts. It is currently unknown if this causes a major difference or if they are just autonomy categories.
There is such a feature as a “daily special discount” – it is currently unknown exactly how this works.
