Home Cookin'

Home Cookin' is the second story level of Mosquito Marsh and the fifteenth main level of Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time. This is the first story level where Dingodile is a playable character and his timeline levels are unlocked by completing this level.

Overview
In the opening, Dingodile is watching a commercial about his diner, but sees lackeys of Papa Batfield setting up TNT Crates within his diner and prepares his vacuum gun. By the time he reaches his diner, the explosives are set off, destroying the entire diner. This results in Dingodile getting his revenge on Papa Batfield's lackeys by blowing up his own diner in retaliation. At the end of the stage, a dimensional rift suddenly appears under Dingodile and ends up pulling him into the various timelines.
