Complete walkthrough for Chapter 3: The Kitchen in Little Nightmares III, including finding all Nomes and Statues, and unlocking the Kitchen Hand trophy.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    After waking in the vent, turn on your lighter and climb the ladder. Run right and use the passing hooks to grab onto them.
  2. 2
    Once dropped into the room with bodies, continue right. Attack the rat stuck in a trap in the next room to satisfy your hunger.
  3. 3
    Climb the metal containers on the right to reach another room. Climb another set of containers with a lid leaning against them, push the lid right to create a path.
  4. 4
    Pass over the last set of containers. Walk toward the screen and left to find a hidden ventilation shaft entrance leading to Statue [05/10]. Climb the ladder on the right.
  5. 5
    Pass through the double doors and move the cart to the window on the right. Climb onto the cart and drop into the pantry.
  6. 6
    To unlock the missable trophy/achievement 'Kitchen Hand', you must toss three ingredients into the cooking pot while avoiding the cook.
  7. 7
    Grab a carrot from the pantry and head right into the room with the cook. Crouch and pass under the table he is working at.
  8. 8
    Warning: The cook may be alerted when you pass under the table and try to grab you. Run through a hole on the right to enter the main kitchen area and hide in the right corner of the first cooking station.
  9. 9
    The cook will follow you into the main cooking area. Stay under the small table with a ladle to remain safe.
  10. 10
    When the cook moves to the back of the room, walk to the pot on the stove and toss the carrot in.
  11. 11
    Return to the safe area beneath the small table. Wait for the cook to move again, then grab the fish head beneath the larger table on the right and return to the safe spot.
  12. 12
    The cook should move to the right side of the room to grab spices. Run forward and toss the fish head into the stew.
  13. 13
    Quickly run toward the screen and hide by a crate with wine bottles and cheese, or return to the safe location if spotted.
  14. 14
    Wait for the cook to turn his back again. Hop up, grab the cheese, and return to the safe spot. Wait for a clear opportunity to toss in the cheese to complete the stew and earn the Trophy/Achievement: Kitchen Hand.
  15. 15
    With your work done, ensure the cook is looking away. Head under the large table and up the stairs on the right to a locked door.
  16. 16
    Climb the white cabinet at the back of the room and jump to the rafters. Follow them to the other side and climb the mesh cages to pass into the upstairs area.
  17. 17
    Climb on the toilets to reach the shelf with a candle. Light the candle before exiting the bathroom.
  18. 18
    Head all the way left into the cook's bedroom. Avoid the music box on the floor.
  19. 19
    Jump onto the shelf above the radiator and grab onto the key. Swing back and forth until it's free.
  20. 20
    Warning: The noise from the falling key will wake the cook. Quickly hide under the bed and wait for him to leave the room before grabbing the key.
  21. 21
    Exit the bedroom and drop the key near the steps to the elevator. Return to the bathroom and hug the Nome [07/13] that appears in the corner.
  22. 22
    Return to the stairs, grab the key, and pull the lever next to the elevator to return to the kitchen.
  23. 23
    Upon returning, a Nome runs left into the pantry. Drop the key in the hall and enter the pantry. Spot a jumping jar and toss it to release Nome [08/13].
  24. 24
    Quickly hug the Nome to collect it. Hide beneath the shelves with the ingredients as the breaking jar has drawn the attention of a cook.
  25. 25
    Wait for the cook to leave before returning to the hall with the elevator. Grab the key and carefully make your way through the kitchen to the locked door.
  26. 26
    Unlock the door and climb onto the table with the cleaver. Crawl through the hole into a sausage-making room.
  27. 27
    Look under the table to find another Nome [09/13]. Hug it before climbing into the dumbwaiter to travel up to the freezer.
  28. 28
    Find two pieces of meat in the freezer room and move them onto the trap door on the floor (which already has one piece of meat).
  29. 29
    The first piece of meat is in the corner of the table beneath the dumbwaiter. Pull it away from the wall, push it to the floor, and move it over the trap door.
  30. 30
    The second piece of meat hangs from a ceiling hook. Climb the shelves on the left wall to reach the top of the cabinet. Swing from the first hook to the meat and grab it to pull it down, placing it over the trap door.
  31. 31
    Check the right side of the room for a hatch. Climb through it and light another lantern. Smash the Statue [06/10] in the corner.
  32. 32
    Return downstairs via the dumbwaiter. Pull the lever hanging from the ceiling to release the meat into the sausage machine. Turn the lever on the machine to create 3 sausage links.
  33. 33
    Jump and grab the links to swing to the hole on the right side of the room. Pass through the vents to another freezer area.
  34. 34
    Exit the freezer to find another locked door. Pull the lever near the elevator and quickly return to the freezer and hide.
