Took "some" time, however definately worth it :) Thanks.

Wow that took forever. Definitely had to do some guessing. I expected a picture of food, but it's really a whole kitchen scene, professional chef included!

Any hints?

I could certainly do with some hints! All I have is a window in the top left corner and a possible something in the lower right corner. After that it's random short lines!

Hints-After the window make the cooks hat. The 4 in line 1 c17-20,the other 2 is c22-3,her eyes are L11 c19 and 21,her mouth is L13 c20.Her skirt starts L25 c17,and the odd 1 on that line is in column 9.

Correction ---Ignore my previous hints.L1 c12-15,L1 c17-18.Eyes L11 c14,16. mouth L13 c15.The skirt L25 c12-18.Duh!! The odd 1 is still L25 c9. I was imagining a 25 x 25 grid and counting back from the right.

The 7 in row 25 starts in column 12. Everything else follows from that.

One unique solution. Challenging, but can be solved without hints. Great image. Thank you for the puzzle.
