Effects [E01] List F. Conclusion [F01] Acknowledgements [F02] Legal Information ---------------------------------------------------------------------- A. Introduction ============================================= [A01] What is the Ducal Restaurant? ============================================= The Ducal Restaurant is a location within High Lagaard, available to the player around the time they reach the second floor. Sometime upon returning to town, Minister Dubois will ask your help regarding a matter, which will lead to the restaurant being opened and run by his granddaughter, Regina. ============================================= [A02] What is the purpose of the restaurant? ============================================= The café's aim is to serve the food of Apicius, a deceased former chef of High Lagaard who, due to the harsh climate of the city being unsuitable for growing crops, created food using the ingredients found in the Yggdrasil Labyrinth. The citizens of the town enjoyed his cuisine, due to the supernatural effects it would imbue them with. Due to his secretive nature, however, his recipes were lost upon his passing until recently, though they are still decoded. The player's goal is to gather the ingredients hinted at within each recipe and recreate them, with Regina serving the food to the player for a small fee. Each meal has its own unique beneficial effect that will last until overwritten (with a few exceptions). If you've played previous entries in the series, this system is akin to the cooking system in Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan and the Guildkeeper's Prepare option in Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millennium Girl. ============================================= [A03] What can I do here? ============================================= When the game begins, a limited number of options are available in the restaurant. As you complete more recipes, however, new features will open up. Grimoire Trading and Recycling, for instance, are available after developing a district. * Restaurant o Develop Dishes: Create new recipes. o Prepare: Remake a previously created recipe. The effect of a currently active recipe can also be canceled here. o Advertise: Market your prepared recipes towards a particular district of town to make money. Later in the game, the Gourmet King can appear, which will allow you to sell any food to him, causing anyone in the district to eat what you purchase. Festivals have a similarly positive effect. o Town Development: Using your en to develop a district further in order to increase the number of customers at your restaurant and obtain better Grimoire Stones from your guests. o Ingredient Storage: Your inventory of ingredients. o Guild House: Switches to the Guild House menu. * Guild House o Grimoire Stones: ? Equip Grimoire: Menu for equipping Grimoire Stones to your characters. ? Grimoire Trade: Unlocked after developing the town. Trades Grimoire stones with NPCs or EOU guild members that visit the restaurant. ? Grimoire Recycle: Unlocked after developing the town. Weighs Grimoires together to discover their total value before trading for a new stone. o Manage Items: Menu for storing and withdrawing items, equipment, and materials. o Manage Guild Cards: Space for your Guild Card and other cards whose QR Codes you've scanned. o Data Settings: ? Read QR Code: Used for scanning a Guild Card. ? StreetPass Settings: Allows you to obtain Guild Cards from people whose 3DS' you pass provided they have EO2U. ? Invite Guild: Creates new guests for Grimoire Trading by using extra data from EOU: The Millennium Girl. o Talk: A brief chat with Regina that changes each time you reach a new floor. o Return: Switches to Restaurant menu. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- B.

Recipes ============================================= [D01] Hi Lagaar Coffee ============================================= Book: Western Food 1 Ingredients: 3x Rye; 1x Sugar Beet Price: 74en Memo (Hint): Roast and grind some wild cereal, and add powdered sweet roots to the extract. Memo (Description): A sweet, easy to drink tea with the scent of rye. Effect: Walk to Recover HP (You now recover some HP after taking a certain number of steps in the Labyrinth!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Alright, I have made Hi Lagaar Coffee! Flavio: Wow, that's incredible...! It's coffee, but without the use of coffee beans! Arianna: The aroma is so soothing... It is amazing that you were able to make this with that technique! Regina: Yeah, that's a bold process that only Apicius could come up with. Come to think of it... I have heard that Apicius' cooking gave people mystical powers. It might be useful to your adventures, so why don't you have a drink before going out? Chloe: Do you know any more recipes? I want to make more food... Regina: Yeah. Currently three recipes are known. Could you help me develop the menu? If you just bring me the ingredients, I'll take it from there. ~Prepare~ Regina: Just drinking this makes you vigorous, they say. Why don't you have some? ============================================= [D02] Escargot Citron ============================================= Book: Western Food 1 Ingredients: 1x Hiding Snail; 2x Citron Price: 77en Memo (Hint): Cook an entire retracted shell, and top with a sour fruit sauce. Memo (Description): The tangy sauce goes well with the texture of the snail. Effect: Ingredient Amount ?? (You will obtain more amounts of food ingredients!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Sorry to keep you waiting. It's done. Flavio: Huh... A-A snail!? ["Snail cooking...?"] Arianna: Oh, no, Sir Siegfried. This is called escargot. Flavio: Nah-ah. The escargot I know isn't this big! ["That looks good!"] Flavio: ...Huh!? But don't you think it's a bit too big? Arianna: Sir Flavio, this is an established dish known as escargot. Flavio: Well... yeah, but... [Dialogue merges here.] Bertrand: You didn't do your homework, kid. The bigger they are, the more valuable they get. Flavio: ...Huh? R-Really? Regina: ...Well, I can see how first timers would be hesitant. But the taste is exquisite. It is stronger and richer than normal escargot. Chloe: I can't wait. Arianna: I would love to have this as well. I have not eaten escargot since I've left my homeland. ["I want to eat too."] Regina: Of course, go right ahead. I'll add this to my menu, so you can order it whenever you want. ["......"] Regina: ...Ah, fine then. I'll cut it up for Arianna, Bertrand... and Chloe. You and Flavio don't need it, right? I'll add this to the menu so you can order it whenever you want. ...Hmph. Flavio: *sigh* ~Prepare~ Regina: The bigger the escargot, the more flavorful it is. Now, bon appétit. ============================================= [D03] Walnut Rye Bread ============================================= Book: Western Food 1 Ingredients: 5x Rye; 2x Walnut; 3x Rock Salt Price: 90en Memo (Hint): Grind wild cereal and knead with crushed salt, then back with hard nuts. Memo (Description): Walnuts give this tasty bread an interesting texture. Effect: Max TP ? (Max TP has increased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Sorry to keep you waiting. It's done. Bertrand: Hmmm... Looks normal to me. Regina: ...Don't judge Apicius' recipes just by looks alone. It's hard to make such springy texture with just rye. Flavio: Springy rye bread!? Isn't rye bread supposed to be hard? Chloe: I ate it a lot when traveling with Trand. Because it's hard and not tasty, it gets thrown in the bottom of the sack... and becomes even harder. ["But rye bread is so good."] Chloe: Then, you eat a bunch. I'll eat a bunch of meat for you. Flavio: You plan on eating even more meat than now? ["That's a waste."] Chloe: ...We ate it in the end. My jaw hurt. Bertrand: It was good for me. Because the quiet you became even quieter. ["You should've used it as a weapon."] Chloe: ...? What are you saying? You can't make food into weapons. Regina: Exactly. It's not a forgivable thing to handle food in such a disrespectful manner. [Dialogue merges here.] Arianna: *giggle* So rye bread is a food full of memories for you two. I wish I had something like that! Flavio: ...Was this touching at all? Regina: Putting memories aside... I'll add this to the menu, so order it again when you feel like it. ~Prepare~ Regina: It's made in a way, so it doesn't become hard over time. It's springy and fluffy at any time. ============================================= [D04] Deer Steak ============================================= Book: Western Food 1 Ingredients: 4x Venison; 2x Asparagus Price: 99en Memo (Hint): Grill thick cut red meat on a hot iron plate, and garnish with vegetable sprouts. Memo (Description): Tender even when cut thick, the deer steak goes well with asparagus. Effect: Recover HP Each Turn (You now recover HP at the end of each turn!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Sorry to keep you waiting. It's done. Chloe: ...Bone in. Superb! Arianna: Oh... How wonderful. I absolutely love venison! ["Is it that good?"] Arianna: Yes! It is tender and lean... It is very easy to eat, wouldn't you agree? Flavio: Hmmm...? I've had deer one time before, but was it THAT good? ["You mentioned that before, too."] Arianna: Oh... You remembered. Flavio: How could we forget? The first thing you say after seeing that giant, mean-looking monster is, "It looks delicious!" Bertrand: Haha, really? Sounds like she's as gluttonous as Chloe. Arianna: B-but... deer IS quite delicious. [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: Arianna's right. If you prepare it properly, venison is a very flavorful meat. But well... You can taste that for yourself. I'll add it to the menu so order it again if you like it. ~Prepare~ Regina: People like the bone in. It looks appetizing... but moreover, it tastes fabulous. ============================================= [D05] Stir-Fried Roller ============================================= Book: Chinese Food 1 Ingredients: 1x Round Roller; 5x Asparagus Price: 73en Memo (Hint): Strip the shell of a rounded beast, and stir-fry with vegetable sprouts. Memo (Description): Fried to a crisp, the roller goes well with the asparagus. Effect: Ail/Bind Recovery ? (Your natural recovery rate from ailments and binds has increased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Sorry to keep you waiting. It's done. Bertrand: This is... quite an aggressive look. Regina: Yes. Apicius' ideas never cease to amaze me. ["...How did it end up like this?"] Regina: Hm? I simply followed the recipe. Flavio: ...Er, I think what Siegfried is trying to say isn't that... ["I'm surprised for sure."] Regina: Right? Preparing the roller like this was shocking for me, too. Flavio: Er, isn't there something to be more surprised about...? [Dialogue merges here.] Arianna: Umm... Is it edible like this? Our eyes just met... Chloe: Just don't mind it. Arianna: ...I-I do mind it. Chloe: Fine. I'll hide the eyes with leaves. Regina: The rice stuffed in the stomach is delicious too, so be sure to have it. Arianna: The... The stomach...? ["Are you okay?"] Arianna: I... don't think so. I feel a bit sorry for it... Chloe: I feel more sorry if it's not eaten after being prepared. Heck, we were the ones who hunted it. Arianna: Y-you're right, but... ["You can do it, Arianna!"] Arianna: I-I'll do my best. Dame Regina's cooking is delicious, so I must eat it...! Flavio: ...You're right. Her food is good, plus the effects are useful... If we think about it that way... Chloe: You guys think too much. [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: ...Hrm, there are problems with the presentation, huh? But this is Apicius' will. I'll add this to the menu so order it again. ~Prepare~ Regina: Surprised by the looks, then surprised by the taste. ...Yep, that's how cuisine should be. ============================================= [D06] Citron Owl Bowl ============================================= Book: Chinese Food 1 Ingredients: 4x Owl Cartilage; 1x Citron Price: 78en Memo (Hint): Deep fry chopped soft bones, and top with a light fruit jam. Memo (Description): A rice bowl containing crispy poultry mixed with a tangy sauce. Effect: Poison RES ??? (Resistance to poison has greatly increased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Sorry to keep you waiting. It's done. Arianna: My, this is quite unique. The side dish is sitting directly on the rice? Bertrand: A donburi is what they call it. The pub has a few too, remember? Arianna: ...But wouldn't the taste of the side dishes mix with the taste of the rice? Oh, I get it now! You're supposed to eat just the food on the top first! ["Eat how you like to."] Arianna: How I like...? Is there another way to eat this? Bertrand: It's not a dish you need to be very proper for. Just as Siegfried says, eat whatever way floats your boat. ["You eat it with the rice."] Arianna: ...? Is that not improper table manners? Bertrand: It's not a dish you need to be very proper for. Well, it's probably best to eat it in whichever way you like. [Dialogue merges here.] Chloe: That's right. Eat how you like, when you like. That's the best. I want to eat this now... *nom* *nom* ...So I'm eating... *nom* *nom* ...first. Regina: Don't try to justify pre-meal snacking! Have the least of manners! Arianna: Wh-What is correct...? Flavio: Somewhere down the middle...? Regina: *sigh* I'll add this to the menu, so order it again whenever you want. Please no snacking then. ~Prepare~ Regina: The same ingredients cooked another way wouldn't give you poison resistance. ...Apicius' recipes are a work of art. ============================================= [D07] Seared Deer ============================================= Book: Chinese Food 1 Ingredients: 4x Venison; 2x Rock Salt; 2x Citron Price: 97en Memo (Hint): Memo (Description): Seared slowly with fire, the salt and citron bring out the flavor. Effect: Block Bind once 3T (When battle begins, you can now block a bind once for 3 turns!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Sorry to keep you waiting. It's done. Chloe: Thick cut. Thick cut meat. That is... very good. ["What a splendid cut!"/"Meat should always be thick!"/"A carnival!"] Chloe: Mr. Sword, you get it. Meat is awesome. Flavio: Yep... It really gets me pumped up seeing such a thick cut! Bertrand: ...You're all too excited. Arianna: But still, this color... Is this not raw? Regina: Don't worry, it's been cooked. The beautiful coloration is created by slowly broiling it. And the taste is exquisite. Arianna: A rare, thick-cut venison steak...! It is truly delicious...! Bertrand: ...Even you're excited, huh? Young'uns sure like meat... Arianna: I-I mean, it's venison! It's so delicious. Sir Bertrand, perhaps you simply have yet to taste true venison! Bertrand: Yeah, yeah, I never had it. Regina: Arianna, there's no need for words. We'll have him taste true venison right now. Arianna: Yes, Dame Regina! Please do! Bertrand: Ugh, what a pain... ~Prepare~ Regina: This is a dish to show off the merits of venison. ...Care to try? ============================================= [D08] Black Tea ============================================= Book: Chinese Food 1 Ingredients: 1x Giant Bud; 2x Sugar Beet Price: 81en Memo (Hint): Rub and wash a smelly monster, then dry with root skin and boil to extract. Memo (Description): A unique-smelling tea that isn't too bitter. Effect: Blind RES ??? (Resistance to blind has greatly increased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Sorry to keep you waiting. It's done. Flavio: Ooh, that smells good. ...Hm? But was there anything this color among the ingredients we handed over? Regina: Drying the giant bud and extracting the flavor makes this color. Flavio: Huh!? This... is from that smelly monster!? But, it's not smelly! Chloe: It's actually refreshing. I want to smell it forever... Regina: After washing it with salt water and drying it, wrapping it with the skin of sugar beets gives it this scent. ...I was wary about it too, at first, but Apicius really was amazing. Arianna: I wonder how he thought about changing the smell... ["Trial and error."] Regina: ...You may be right. He is called genius, but it is most likely an answer he reached through hard work. ["Genius inspiration."] Regina: ...Inspiration, huh? It is true that you can't reach new heights without it. ["Whatever, it's just good."] Regina: What do you mean "whatever."? There's a better way to put it, you know... But thinking about it, the process of cooking may not be important to those on the eating end. [Dialogue merges here.] Bertrand: Well, enough with the complex talk. Can I get another cup? I'm thirsty. Regina: That'll be extra. I'll add it to the menu, so order it there. Bertrand: Tch, don't be such a spoilsport. ~Prepare~ Regina: Smells completely different from the original ingredients, huh? I have to say, cooking can be deep. ============================================= [D09] Butterfly Tsukudani ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 1 Ingredients: 1x Still Venomfly; 4x Sugar Beet Price: 77en Memo (Hint): Extract sugar from a sweet root and stew with an unmoving monster. Memo (Description): Butterfly stewed with sugar extracted from boiled beets. Effect: Poison Damage 2x (Damage dealt to enemies through poison will be doubled!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Sorry to keep you waiting. It's done. Arianna: Oh, we could hardly... wait? Flavio: Um, you know, this... Let me ask just in case. ...What is this? Regina: Hm? I thought I told you the name before. It's a butterfly tsukudani. Bertrand: It was a bit unexpected to have the name reflect the dish in its entirety. Chloe: But the glaze is pretty. Shiny, crispy, tasty-looking. Regina: Oh? You have good eyes, Chloe. Cooking something of this size to be evenly amber all around is the key to Apicius' recipe. ["It looks hard to eat."] Regina: You don't have to worry. Apicius made this recipe with that in mind. I'll show you how to eat it. First, cut the body into manageable sizes... Now there, try it out. ["It might be good."] Regina: Not "might"; it WILL be good. I made it myself, after all. Well, just eat it and see. First, you cut the body into manageable sizes... Now there, try it out. ["I'd prefer a different ingredient."] Regina: You don't get it. This technique only works with the shape of the butterfly. It wouldn't work with other ingredients. Flavio: ...Why did you put so much effort into trying to cook this, Apicius...? Regina: You guys are really picky, aren't you? Give it a try and you'll see. First, you cut the body into manageable sizes... Now there, try it out. [Dialogue merges here.] ["Thanks, but no thanks."] Regina: ...Do you not trust my skill? (Loops back to the previous choice.) ["A man must have courage!"] Regina: Good. You bite the bullet, close your eyes, and throw the food into your mouth! ...... ......! It might not fit everyone, but the refreshing taste of the venomfly matches with the sweet, salty flavoring! Flavio: S-So... How was it, Siegfried...? ["It's delicious!"] Flavio: R-Really...? ["Eat it yourself."] Flavio: Y-You're not trying to fool me, are you!? [Dialogue merges here.] Bertrand: It's not anything to be up in arms about. This size might be rare, but there are regions that eat insects. Flavio: W-Well, I've heard about that before back at Midgard... but seeing it for the first time is something else. Arianna: I do agree... Seeing this has surprised me a bit- No, quite a lot. Flavio: I know, right!? Arianna: It surprise me to see those we were fighting becoming so delicious- looking! Flavio: THAT'S what you're surprised about!? Chloe: I get you can eat the body, but what about the wings? Looks hard to eat. Regina: You sprinkle them over rice. ...See? Like this. Arianna: My, that is quite pretty. And the flavoring seems like it would go well with rice! Flavio: You guys aren't reluctant at all... ["I'm with you, Flavio."] Flavio: Yeah, huh... We never had something like this at Midgard, huh...? ["Open up a bit, Flavio."] Flavio: Am I the odd one out...? [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: I'll add this to the menu, so feel free to order it whenever you feel like it. ~Prepare~ Regina: Cooking something this size to an even amber color is something only Apicius could pull off. Enjoy it. ============================================= [D10] Owl Cartilage Karaage ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 1 Ingredients: 4x Owl Cartilage; 2x Rock Salt Price: 81en Memo (Hint): Crush soft bones, add salt, and deep fry until crispy. Memo (Description): A deep-fried dish with a unique texture, eaten with light salt. Effect: Adds Volt Element 1T (For the first turn of battle, your weapons will have volt element!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Sorry to keep you waiting. I've finished it. Bertrand: Ooh, I eat cartilage a lot at bars, but this one has a different texture to it. Regina: ...Hey, I didn't say you can eat it yet. Keep your hands out of the dish. Bertrand: Hm? It's gonna be eaten anyway, so what's the big deal? Regina: That's not the point. This is a question of manners! Arianna: Wh-What should we do, Sir Siegfried? At this rate, they're going to get into an argument... [Calm Bertrand down.] Bertrand: Yeah, yeah, the old man's wrong. You happy, now? Regina: ...What's with this man? This attitude at this age... How did he get through life? Chloe: ...You're too harsh on Trand. He may be rude, but it's just because he's too old to fix it. Flavio: That's not helping! Ugh, just don't say anything! A-Anyway! I'm starting to get hungry now... *wink* *wink* [Calm Regina down.] Regina: Did I say anything that was wrong? He's acting like this because you pamper him. Chloe: ...You're too harsh on Trand. He may be rude, but it's just because he's too old to fix it. Flavio: That's not helping! Ugh, just don't say anything! A-Anyway! I'm starting to get hungry now... *wink* *wink* ["Let's just eat."] Regina: Mm... You're right. The food'll get cold at this rate. [Dialogue merges here.] Arianna: This deep-fried meat... It is called "karaage"? Do we squeeze this citrus and eat it? [Squeeze the lemon all over.] Chloe: ! Siegfried, that's evil. The crunchiness is now soggy. Bertrand: Come on, that doesn't matter anyway. Chloe: That doesn't doesn't matter. It's a very important matter. Arianna: Dame Chloe is so empathic about this... It must truly be a grave matter. Flavio: Er, no, it's really nothing at all. These over here don't have any juice on them, Chloe, so eat them. ["Don't squeeze that lemon."] Chloe: Yeah, the karaage will get soggy, so we don't need that. Flavio: You think? I like the refreshing taste it gives. Chloe: That's evil. Arianna: ...I see this is a deeply rooted debate. Bertrand: They just can't understand each other because the subject's so stupid. That's all. Arianna: I see... That is quite deep! [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: Alright, I'll add this to the menu, so order it again whenever you feel like it. ~Prepare~ Regina: Make sure to talk it out when squeezing the citron on it. ...I don't want you fighting over something so stupid. ============================================= [D11] Walnut Yokan ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 1 Ingredients: 4x Walnut; 3x Sugar Beet Price: 83en Memo (Hint): Pour sweet root extract into a mold, then harden with crunchy nuts. Memo (Description): A candy whose bitter walnuts counterbalance the sweetness. Effect: Grimoire Chance ? (The chance of a Grimoire Chance occurring has increased slightly!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Sorry to keep you waiting. It's done. ...But the MVP this time is her. Arianna: Yes! I worked very hard to make it. Now everyone, please eat. Flavio: Yokan, huh... I've never seen one before. Is it sweet? Well, it does look delicious! I like walnuts after all. Arianna: Sir Siegfried, please have some as well. ["I can't wait to eat!"] You take the yokan and bring it to your mouth... ...The sweetness is balanced with the saltiness of the walnuts. However... you should pair it with some bitter tea. Arianna: Um... How is... the taste? ["It's delicious."] Arianna: I'm glad you like it...! Regina: Hmph, it's only natural. I'll add it to the menu, so order it whenever you feel like it. ["It's okay."] Arianna: So I need to train more? ...I'll do my best! Regina: That's the spirit, Arianna. Making picky eaters enjoy your food is one of the charms of being a chef. I'll add it to the menu, so order it whenever you feel like it. ["......"] Arianna: Sir Siegfried? Did it... um, not suit your tastes...? Chloe: But it's so good. Chloe will eat Siegfried's then. Any objections? Arianna: ...I see. Um, if it is too much for you to eat, please give it to Dame Chloe then... Regina: So everyone has different tastes... Well, it's not my place to tell you what you like. I'll add it to the menu, so order it whenever you feel like it. ["I'm not a fan of sweets..."] Arianna: Huh... You do not like sweet things? ...Very well! If you pour this sauce on it, it will no longer be sweet, so you can eat that! Regina: H-Hey! He's not going to eat that either, so stop it! Arianna: But it might turn out to be delicious. Regina: Listen, Arianna. Pouring tomato sauce on a yokan will not make it better! Bertrand: Ack... Just thinking about it makes my stomach cringe. Regina: I'll add the PLAIN yokan to the menu, so order it whenever you feel like it. ~Prepare~ Regina: It's an arrangement of an eastern candy. Supposedly, it's said to bring good luck. ============================================= [D12] Forest Deer Sukiyaki ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 1 Ingredients: 3x Venison; 1x Giant Bud; 3x Asparagus Price: 105en Memo (Hint): Stew lightly braised red meat with plants and vegetables picked from the forest. Memo (Description): A pot that uses tender deer meat to help flavor the vegetables. Effect: Action Speed ? 1T (For the first turn of battle, your action speed will be doubled!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Sorry to keep you waiting. It's done. Chloe: ...! Meat, simmering. Simmering, meat! Flavio: ...You really do sink your teeth into things regarding meat, huh? Chloe: What are you saying, Flavio? What am I supposed to sink my teeth into if it's not meat? ["Exactly."] Chloe: Chloe don't mistake meat. ["Sink them into vegetables, too."] Chloe: ...... Bertrand: Hey, don't ignore him. Your mother told you the same thing, right? [Dialogue merges here.] Bertrand: *sigh* When did she become such a meat fanatic? Regina: A perfectly unbalanced diet, huh. Well, in that case... Listen up, Chloe. The true worth of this hotpot is not in the meat, but in the vegetables. Chloe: !? Regina: Those who don't eat the vegetables are unworthy of this pot. ["But they're still vegetables."] Regina: Yes, they're still vegetables, but they have their own strengths. You just don't know them. ["Then I'm worthy."] Regina: Siegfried has spoken. Chloe, how about you? [Dialogue merges here.] Chloe: ...... ...I'll become worthy of this pot. Regina: Good. Flavio: ...Wow. Chloe followed orders. Arianna: Dame Regina, you're incredible! Regina: I'll add this to the menu, so when she is worthy, go ahead and order it. ~Prepare~ Regina: The meat compliments the vegetables, and the vegetables compliment the meat... Taste the best of both worlds. ============================================= [D13] Fanged Sandwich ============================================= Book: Western Food 2 Ingredients: 1x Vine Head; 4x Stiff Leg Meat Price: 95en Memo (Hint): Boil a biting plant until soft, then place cooked elastic meat in between. Memo (Description): The boiled plant and savory leg meat complement each other. Effect: Gather Amount ? (You will obtain more amounts of materials when gathering!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: ...Sorry to keep you waiting. Here you go. It turned out pretty well. Arianna: My...! It has quite a strong bite. Bertrand: Hmmm... So food is stuffed into this fanged vine's mouth? It's a basket, so even the meat juice won't drip out. Interesting. Chloe: This makes me happy. The insides spill out all the time for me. ["Good for you."] Chloe: Yeah. I can now eat all of it. I'm really happy. ["I spill a lot, too."] Chloe: Sandwiches always spill... But with this sandwich, you and me are happy. [Dialogue merges here.] Flavio: H-Hmmmm... If you put it that way, it's not a bad sandwich... I guess. But since it looks pretty much exactly as the monster we fight all the time... it's... kinda... Arianna: Hmm, it is true that depending on how you look at it, you're eating a sandwich along with the monster, huh? Flavio: Er... That's not the positive opinion I meant... ["You're being too sensitive."] Flavio: No one ever told me that while we were back at Midgard... ["I understand that..."] Flavio: R-Right? I'm not the crazy one, huh? [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: Being able to enjoy the presentation is one of the charms of Apicius' recipes, but... it might not be for everyone. I'll keep tabs on the customers' reactions. This'll go on the menu, so order it whenever you like. ~Prepare~ Regina: A sandwich that never spills its ingredients... Hmm, Apicius never ceases to amaze me. ============================================= [D14] Autumn Pot-au-feu ============================================= Book: Western Food 2 Ingredients: 4x Scarlet Yam; 3x Boar Thigh Price: 105en Memo (Hint): Cut roots and beast meat into large pieces, and stew until ready. Memo (Description): Cooked for a long time, the ingredients are tender, and the soup is strong. Effect: Walk to Build Force (Your Force gauge now increases after taking a certain number of steps in the Labyrinth!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: ...Sorry to keep you waiting. Here you go. It turned out pretty well. Bertrand: Heh, a pout-au-feu. That's nostalgic; I used to eat those all the time... But isn't that a lot of meat in there? Chloe: What are you saying, Trand? The more meat, the better. In fact, these mushrooms should be meat, too. ["That's too much."] Chloe: You're wrong. There's no such thing as too much meat. Regina: Sorry to butt in after you've made your statement, but there is such a thing as too much. Because there are vegetables, the meat tastes better. That goes the same vice versa. ["We don't need veggies."] Chloe: Exactly. Regina: I'll refute that. Because there are vegetables, the meat tastes better, and vice versa. It's about balance. ["Heck, I don't need meat."] Chloe: ...!? Siegfried, are you insane? Regina: Oh, you prefer vegetables? I thought that most explorers were meat lovers like Chloe... I'll remember that. But that's the problem, too. The vegetables taste better because there is meat, and vice versa. It's about balance. [Dialogue merges here.] Chloe: ...Is that true? Regina: That's true. Flavio: Hmmm, you really need to think about a lot of stuff when cooking, huh? I just think it's all good as long as the taste is good. Regina: Well, it is the job of a cook to think. Arianna: *giggle* Dame Regina's cooking is always so delicious... We cannot help but let you handle it. Regina: I... I see. Then I'll take care of it. I'll add this to the menu, so order it again if you like. ~Prepare~ Regina: This country is cold, so you should warm up before heading out. ============================================= [D15] Persimmon Pudding ============================================= Book: Western Food 2 Ingredients: 3x Red Persimmon; 2x Liquid Red Gel; 2x Dragon Fruit Price: 124en Memo (Hint): Mix red fruit and gelatin, then bake, adding sauce from a spiky fruit. Memo (Description): A dessert that has a unique texture as well as taste. Effect: Rare Enemy Rate ? (The chances of rare enemies appearing has increased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: ...Sorry to keep you waiting. Here you go. It turned out pretty well. Arianna: ...? This is a bit different from the pudding I know. Flavio: Is it? I've never seen pudding before. Arianna: Yes. To start, the ingredients are quite different as well. First, you would mix flour with beef tallow, then- Flavio: Hold on, there! We're talking about sweets here, aren't we? Arianna: Yes, we are. Did I say something wrong? ["You did."] Flavio: You don't use beef tallow in sweets, right? Wouldn't you use butter? Arianna: Huh? But... in my country, that was normal. ["Keep going."] Arianna: Yes, I shall do so. You then add eggs, sugar, some brandy, and dry fruits... Mix them all together and boil. Then, when it's cooked, you hang it in a well-ventilated place- Flavio: H-Hang!? Arianna: Yes, you hang them? For about... a month? Flavio: ...Arianna, you're not trying to fool us, are you? [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: Don't be so suspicious of her. Arianna's recipe does exist. This recipe was arranged so that the pudding can be made with much more ease. Bertrand: I see... The stickiness of the original isn't bad, but this is pretty good in its own right. Chloe: Soft and tasty. Arianna: Huh...!? U-Um... Where are... our servings? Flavio: I was wondering why you two weren't entering the conversation. Why're you eating without us!? Regina: ...I'll cut some more slices for you guys. This'll go on the menu, and I see that some of you already like it, so order it again. ~Prepare~ Regina: Apicius rearranged this dish to take less time than it normally does. Isn't it great? ============================================= [D16] Gibier Curry Rice ============================================= Book: Western Food 2 Ingredients: 3x Deer Shoulder; 3x Scarlet Yam; 1x Root Chili Price: 137en Memo (Hint): Chop horned-monster meat and roots, then stew with hot spices. Memo (Description): The deer meat is stewed until tender, making this spicy dish flavorful. Effect: Max HP ? (Max HP has increased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: ...Sorry to keep you waiting. Here you go. It turned out pretty well. Flavio: It's curry! I freaking love this stuff! Oh man, this smells awesome! Bertrand: I wonder who's excited... Arianna: *giggle* Sir Flavio really must love curry. I am... not very fond of spicy foods... ["Pour some honey on it."] Arianna: I see. No matter how spicy the curry may be, it must bow to the power of honey! Flavio: Er, no! Maybe if you were still cooking it, but now? It'd just be crappy curry! Arianna: Huh, is that so!? ["Add an egg."] Arianna: Add an egg? Will that make it less spicy? Flavio: Technically, no. More like it makes it easier to eat. It makes it pleasant and cools down the roux to a balanced heat. Arianna: I see...! ["Suck it up and eat it."] Arianna: Oh... I suppose I have no other choice. Flavio: If it's that hard for you, why don't you rest your tongue every so often with something cold and sweet like lassi? You don't have to force yourself to eat it so quickly. Just do it at your own pace! Arianna: I see... That might be okay then! [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: ...I'm surprised. You're pretty knowledgeable with curry. Flavio: Well, I was raised in a place where I could look up things I liked as much as I wanted. Chloe: Midgard Library is incredible. You can become a genius of curry. ["Isn't that awesome?"] Chloe: Yes, that's awesome. I want to look up meat. Arianna: Then I would like to look up sweets! Bertrand: To you guys, the world-famous temple of knowledge is nothing but a cooking class, eh? ["Not really."] Chloe: Huh, not really? Midgard Library is nothing, then... Bertrand: Those are some bold words to be throwing at the temple of knowledge. [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: Hrm, I'd like to visit Midgard Library one of these days... But the urgent duty is reproducing Apicius' recipes. I'll add this to the menu, so feel free to order it whenever you feel like it. ~Prepare~ Regina: Despite its looks, it's a bit spicy. ...I'll be here to pour you as much water as you want. ============================================= [D17] Mala Inferno Pot ============================================= Book: Chinese Food 2 Ingredients: 2x Fire Heartwood; 5x Deer Shoulder; 1x Root Chili Price: 135en Memo (Hint): Add firm meat to a spicy root-based soup, and finish with high heat. Memo (Description): A pot full of flavorful meat in an incredibly hot soup. Effect: Ailment Damage ? (Damage taken from poison, curse, and fear has been halved!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: ...Sorry to keep you all waiting. It turned out pretty well. Bertrand: Well, this one sure makes an impact. Flavio: B-But, it looks like it's not use directly in the dish, so it's okay... I guess? Chloe: This is interesting. Is this to retain the heat of the dish? Regina: Yeah. Temperature is part of the taste, after all. I can keep the ideal flavor at this temperature. Being able to serve hot foods hot, this technology is great news to chefs. Arianna: Temperature is part of the taste... I've never thought of that before. I cannot eat very hot food, though... But I shall try my best! ["Good luck, Arianna."] Arianna: Yes, I shall challenge this hot dish! ["Don't strain yourself."] Arianna: No. In order to answer Dame Regina's hard work making this dish... I shall overcome my weakness! Bertrand: This is a big ordeal for a single dish... Regina: I'm glad you think that way, but if it's your constitution, then- Hey! Don't stuff your mouth like that! Arianna: ...! ......! ......!? It... It's... It's spicy! It may be hot, but it's even spicier! I-It's hot... and spicy... It's spicy and hot! Regina: It's because you stuffed your mouth like that. Couldn't you tell it was spicy by looking at it...? Arianna: It... It was red... But tomato soup isn't spicy...! I-Ich ho shpaishee... Wawer...! Regina: It looks like temperature was the least of your problems... Flavio: I didn't know you couldn't eat spicy things. It's so good, though. Arianna: I cannot believe you can eat such foods with a straight face... Regina: I'll put this on the menu, but make sure to take care when ordering for Arianna. ...I'll change it so that every person can adjust the level of spiciness. ~Prepare~ Regina: I'll adjust the spiciness to each person, so swallow your pride and tell me what you think, okay? ============================================= [D18] Sweet and Sour Moa ============================================= Book: Chinese Food 2 Ingredients: 4x Stiff Leg Meat; 2x Leek Price: 106en Memo (Hint): Deep fry elastic meat, then stir-fry long vegetables and mix. Memo (Description): Greasy fried chicken made easy to eat with sweet and sour sauce. Effect: Block Ailments once 3T (When battle begins, you can now block an ailment once for 3 turns!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: ...Sorry to keep you all waiting. It turned out pretty well. Flavio: Whoa...! This smells good! And it looks normal! Regina: ...What. You have a problem with what my cooking usually looks like? Flavio: E-Er, that's not what I meant... Right, Siegfried? ["I have a problem."] Regina: ...Ho-ho. I'll remember that. Flavio: You pissed her off... You're too honest, Siegfried. ["I don't have a problem."] Regina: Hmph, of course. Apicius arranged his recipes to entertain by looks as well. Flavio: ...You're amazing. ["...I can't tell you."] Regina: That sounds suspicious. ...Very well. [Dialogue merges here.] Chloe: Regina. More. Regina: ...You always eat so fast. Are you even tasting the flavor? Chloe: I'm tasting it. The fat of the meat and the tanginess of the sweet-and- sour sauce, absolute harmony. Chloe likes the sweet-and-sour sauce. And the spices are great. The brisk texture and scent are unique. Regina: Hmm, you actually have sharp taste buds. The strong smell is thanks to the forest vegetables. Because of the harsh living conditions and various beings, there are a lot of strong-smelling plants. Bertrand: You're right. There actually are a lot of smells in the forest. But I've heard that they're more apt for medicine than food. Regina: When prepared normally, the other ingredients lose to the strong scent. This leek here needs special preparation or else it can't be eaten. Arianna: *giggle* Regina: ...What is it, Arianna? You shouldn't look at someone's face and just laugh. Arianna: Ah, please excuse me. I was just thinking about how much fun you look like you're having talking about cooking. Regina: Having... fun...? Was I looking like that? ["You were."] Regina: ...Shoot. ["You weren't."] Regina: I-I see. Phew... [Dialogue merges here.] Arianna: Why? I like the Dame Regina who smiles while talking about food. Regina: D-Don't say things like that. Anyway, I'll add this to the menu, so order it when you like. Chloe: ...Regina, are you embarrassed? Regina: I'm not embarrassed! ~Prepare~ Regina: The customers say it goes well with rice. Why don't you order extra? ============================================= [D19] Chestnut Moon Cake ============================================= Book: Chinese Food 2 Ingredients: 2x Oni Chestnuts; 4x Small Soybean; 2x Scarlet Yam Price: 130en Memo (Hint): Strain red roots and small beans, then knead and bake with spiky nuts. Memo (Description): A candy with moderate sweetness matched with the texture of game. Effect: Leg Bind RES ??? (Resistance to leg bind has greatly increased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: ...Sorry to keep you all waiting. It turned out pretty well. I had Arianna help out again. I thank you. Arianna: Oh, no, it was fun for me, too. The kitchen at Ambrosia is full of utensils! Flavio: Hmmm... It looks small, but it's heavy. Looks like this'll be quite the eats. Arianna: *giggle* Please enjoy! Flavio: I will! Chloe: *munch**munch* This is good. It's not meat, but Chloe approves. Flavio: Same here. The warm sweetness of the chestnuts is great. Bertrand: Moon cakes get their name from being shaped after the moon. In one region, it's tradition to eat these while gazing the moon over with friends. Arianna: Moon over... a friend? Bertrand: Yeah. Arianna: Th-Then... like this? It's a bit embarrassing. Bertrand: Uh, kid? Flavio: Arianna, why are you eating the moon cakes while staring at Siegfried? Arianna: Huh? But I thought you're supposed to do this? It may be rude to Sir Siegfried, but he is the only dear person who is always near me. Chloe: ...... ...Then I'll look at Trand. Flavio: ...... Chloe: ...Don't worry. You'll find someone who'll eat moon cakes for you one day, Flavio. Arianna: She's right. You are a good person! Flavio: Th-That's not what this is about! It's not that I don't have anyone; it's that there's no such tradition! Regina: ...If you really want to, I could eat one for you. Flavio: ...Oh!? Regina: ...Don't worry. I was joking. Bertrand said moon "gazing", not "mooning over". You eat these while viewing the moon. Apicius took a hint from that tradition and created his own version. Alright then, I'll add this to the menu, so order this again. ~Prepare~ Regina: They look small, but... they're fattening. Eat with discretion. ============================================= [D20] Dragon Jelly ============================================= Book: Chinese Food 2 Ingredients: 2x Dragon Fruit; 3x Red Persimmon Price: 124en Memo (Hint): Color by crushing a red fruit, add a violent plant's fruit, and then cool. Memo (Description): A dessert that has both flavor and tart using persimmons and dragon fruit. Effect: Paralysis RES ??? (Resistance to paralysis has greatly increased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: ...Sorry to keep you all waiting. It turned out pretty well. Arianna: My, how cute...! It is a pretty color. Chloe: The texture is interesting. Jiggly, glossy... and sometimes lumpy. Arianna: W-Wait, Dame Chloe! You must first enjoy the presentation of the cooking... Oh, it's already a mess... Chloe: It's the same when you eat it. I don't mind the looks. ["I agree."] Chloe: Right? ["Looks are part of the taste."] Chloe: That's a lie. You can make something pretty, but if it can't be eaten, it can't be eaten. Chloe... has been fooled before. Bertrand: ...Oh yeah. You bit into a bar of soap, saying it looked like cheese, huh? Chloe: That soap is an unforgivable crime. [Dialogue merges here.] Arianna: But... Dame Regina worked so hard to make it pretty, I wanted to eat it tidily. Regina: ...You don't have to mind it that much. Losing its shape is the fate of all dishes. The problem is you, Chloe. Your pre-meal snacking is the issue. Chloe: Chloe eats when Chloe wants. Flavio: Wha- Hey, you're eating too much! Leave some for me, will you!? Chloe: Survival of the fittest. Flavio: Hey, don't take the plate and run! Wait! Regina: Don't run in the restaurant! *sigh* I added this to the menu, so next time, eat with a little more composure. ~Prepare~ Regina: Dragon fruits don't ripen after being picked, so the timing is difficult. ...I have to thank you for stocking them. ============================================= [D21] Odd Ishiyaki Pot ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 2 Ingredients: 1x Strange Stone; 4x Stiff Leg Meat Price: 113en Memo (Hint): Place bird loin and other ingredients in a bowl, and bowl instantly using a hot rock. Memo (Description): The dish is not only delicious, but it is fun to see the pot instantly boil. Effect: Buff Item Effect: Line (During battle, the effects of Bravant and Stonard are now increased for the entire line!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: ...Sorry to keep you all waiting. It turned out pretty well. Chloe: Ooh...? Bertrand: ...I was doubtful as to what use that would be in cooking, but... I see, that's a daring way to use it. Arianna: Sir Apicius was one incredible person. I never imagined one could eat stones... Flavio: I was just thinking... Can we use this softening technique in battle!? ["Great idea!"] Flavio: Right!? Regina: ...Sorry to burst your bubble, but you don't actually eat this stone. ["Think, guys."] Regina: Siegfried's right. The stone isn't edible. [Dialogue merges here.] Chloe: Then why is it there? Regina: When using the stone to heat the dish, the results differ from other methods. For instance, cooking sweet potatoes on hot rocks gives you a better taste than an on open fire, right? Flavio: Oh, you're right! I get it now. Regina: And after comparing, I've found that this strange stone makes the food more tender and flavorful than a normal rock. Even Apicius noted that he didn't know the reasoning behind it, though... Bertrand: That doesn't change the fact we're eating something we know nothing about. Regina: But I guarantee the taste. I'll add this to the menu, so feel free to order it whenever you feel like it. ~Prepare~ Regina: Cooking using this stone makes the meat even more tender. ...I'm not sure how though. ============================================= [D22] Boar Tonjiru ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 2 Ingredients: 4x Boar Thigh; 3x Leek Price: 114en Memo (Hint): Add thin vegetables with sinewy meat of a large beast, then stew well. Memo (Description): A miso soup with stewed tendon that melts in your mouth. Effect: Adds Ice Element 1T (For the first turn of battle, your weapons will have ice element!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: ...Sorry to keep you all waiting. It turned out pretty well. Flavio: Ooh! There's a lot in here! When a soup is full of ingredients, it feels like a luxury. Chloe: A pile of food. I'm happy. ["Let's pile more on."] Flavio: Pile more on... That has a nice ring to it. Those were words we never could say back at the orphanage. Regina: ...Let me warn you that if you pile on any more I'll have to raise the price. Flavio: Ack, that's not good! Bertrand: There's plenty enough on here, so just make do with it. You young'uns are so full of energy, it makes me jealous. But, still... There's so much, yet I can eat it like nothing. ["This is a bit much..."] Chloe: Siegfried, don't eat much? Arianna: I agree... With this much in front of me, I feel overwhelmed. Chloe: Arianna, too...!? I don't understand. Bertrand: Your stomach's too peppy. But still, this soup... Kid, Siegfried. There's no need to fret. Even I can finish this. [Dialogue merges here.] Arianna: Oh... You're right. It is a gentle taste. Regina: I stewed a lot of ingredients that warm you up, so it's even better on cold days. I'll add this to the menu, so feel free to order it whenever you feel like it. ~Prepare~ Regina: You should warm up before going. I've upgraded your portions. ============================================= [D23] Chestnut Chakin Shibori ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 2 Ingredients: 4x Oni Chestnuts; 4x Scarlet Yam Price: 119en Memo (Hint): Strain boiled pointy nuts and red roots, then wrap with a cloth. Memo (Description): Sweets that allow you to taste the natural sweetness smoothly. Effect: Active Chance ? (The chance of an Active Grimoire Chance occurring has increased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: ...Sorry to keep you waiting. Here you go. It turned out pretty well. Arianna: My, my... They look so cute. And delicious, as well. Flavio: Ooh...! Candied chestnuts! I love the way they look like treasure. Bertrand: But it leaves the mouth a bit dry. Hey lady, some tea. Regina: I'm not a maid. You have your own legs. Bertrand: It's a pain to get up. Regina: ...... ["I want some tea, too."] Regina: You're the same as this man? *sigh* It seems the male members of Chevalier all lack manners. Flavio: Wha- I didn't say anything, yet I was counted together...!? ["Get up, Bertrand."] Bertrand: What, I'm beat from all the exploration. Let a man bum around a while in town, at least. Chloe: Trand is bumming around even in the forest. ["I'll go make some tea."] Bertrand: Ooh, sorry to bother you. Make sure it's hot. Regina: ...Don't you think the reason why this man is so arrogant is because you're letting him? Chloe: Uh-uh. Trand was like this before we met Siegfried. [Dialogue merges here.] Arianna: *giggle* I see that everyone is getting along very nicely with Dame Regina. Bertrand: Yeah, we're the best of buddies. Right? Milady? Regina: ...The man really is ill-natured. Whatever. I'll add this to the menu, so order it when you like. And let me warn you: the tea costs extra. ~Prepare~ Regina: I didn't use any sugar, yet this rich sweetness prevails... This is a dish you can only make from the forest. ============================================= [D24] Autumn Dango ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 2 Ingredients: 2x Liquid Red Gel; 2x Small Soybean; 2x Dragon Fruit Price: 137en Memo (Hint): Wrap small beans with rice and cover with gelatin and a spiky fruit sauce. Memo (Description): The sweet dango and the sour sauce match well in this colorful dessert. Effect: Curse Damage 3x (Damage dealt to enemies through curse will be tripled!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: ...Sorry to keep you waiting. Here you go. It turned out pretty well. Chloe: I helped out this time. Bertrand: Huh!? What'd the hell you do!? Your mother has told you over and over not to touch raw ingredients! Flavio: The old man is getting that mad... Is Chloe's cooking THAT bad? Arianna: Dame Chloe likes to eat, so I would assume she wouldn't make a blunder out of her cooking. Bertrand: Eating and making are two different things. She thinks it's funny to start throwing random things into the pot. Chloe: Trand doesn't trust Chloe at all. Trust me. Fine. Trand doesn't get to eat. Siegfried, wanna eat? ["...I'll eat!"] You prepare yourself for the worst, close your eyes, and throw the dango into your mouth! ...... ......! The chewy and sweet dango matches well with the tangy sauce... It's quite delightful! Bertrand: What!? Chloe's cooking tastes good!? Chloe: Mm-hm! The dango that I skewered are delicious. Arianna: Skewered...? Um, does that mean... that Dame Chloe simply skewered the finished dango? Regina: ...I originally asked her to roll the dango, but that turned out to be quite a disaster. This is not only for you, but the prototype for the customers, so I limited her role to that. Bertrand: Kid... That was a fine decision you made. Regina: So, seeing that there's no problem with the taste, I'll add it to the menu. Feel free to order it whenever you feel like. ["I refuse!"] Chloe: ...... Chloe hates Siegfried. What about you, Flavio? Flavio: ...Er, well... I think... I'll pass, too. Arianna: You are too cruel, everyone! Dame Chloe worked so hard to make them for us! If you are all going to not eat, then I shall eat them myself! Chloe: Arianna... Thank you. Arianna: ...... ......! These dango are very delicious! The sauce is sweet and fragrant, and the dough is chewy. This is amazing! Chloe: Mm-hm! Arianna can have all of it. Flavio: Huh? What about us? Chloe: ...There's none for those who refused. Regina: That was your own fault this time. Whenever you feel like it, you can order ones I made from the menu. ~Prepare~ Regina: ...Interesting sauce, huh? It tastes great hot like this, but changes flavors when cold, too. ============================================= [D25] Monster Fish Panino ============================================= Book: Western Food 3 Ingredients: 1x Giant Tear; 3x Goat Grass; 3x Freshwater Filet Price: 222en Memo (Hint): Marinate filet with salt water from a monster, and sandwich with baked cereal. Memo (Description): The monster replica is interesting, but the fermented fish isn't for everyone. Effect: EXP Gain ? (The amount of experience earned after battle has increased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: I just finished it. Eat up while it's hot. Flavio: Th-This is...! Arianna: ...I-I feel sorry for it. The poor thing is crying... Bertrand: Before that, we didn't bring the entire carcass... Kid, where'd you find this? Regina: Ha, if it can fool the people who fight it all the time, then it's a success. This is all an imitation. The eye is a cooked egg, see? Chloe: ...It is. The body is... mashed potatoes? Regina: Correct. The fish taste is a bit strong, so it matches well. ["That's amazing."] Regina: I simply made it according to the recipe, but... it's not a bad feeling to hear that. ["I'd prefer it normal..."] Regina: Well, I only made it according to the recipe. Like I mentioned before, Apicius' recipes entertain by looks as well. ...Hrmmm, it was fun to make, but is it really THAT disgusting? [Dialogue merges here.] Bertrand: Hey, putting looks aside, this guy doesn't look very easy to eat. What're we supposed to do with the wings? Regina: Oh that? You cut them off with a knife before you start eating. Like... this! Arianna: Th-That looks painful...! Regina: Hm? Y-You think so? It's just an imitation, though... ["Poor thing."] Regina: I-I see... Even if it's fake, there are people who feel that way, huh? ["We're going to eat it either way..."] Regina: ...Right? Arianna: That's true, but because of the way it looks, I feel sorry for it. Regina: I-I see... Even if it's fake, there are people who feel that way, huh? [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: I made it teary-eyed to go with the ingredients, but... should I arrange it to smile? Chloe: ...Can you eat something that is smiling? Bertrand: That kinda has its own problems... Regina: Hrmmm... I see. It was really fun to make, though... Well, I'll see how the other customers think of it. It'll be on the menu, so order it any time you want. ~Prepare~ Regina: I did well this time, too. Recreating monsters using food... It's quite entertaining. ============================================= [D26] Apple Sauce Bison Steak ============================================= Book: Western Food 3 Ingredients: 4x Beef Loin; 1x Glitter Apple Price: 160en Memo (Hint): Broil a thick-cut raging-beast meat, and place grated shining fruit on top. Memo (Description): The meat is fragrant and tender, and the apple sauce makes it light. Effect: No Preemptive/Surprise (Excluding special situations, preemptive and surprise attacks will no longer occur!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: I just finished it. Eat up while it's hot. ...Hm? What's wrong, Chloe? It's rare for you to not come running in even though it's meat. Chloe: But there's fruits on the meat. It's that tasty...? ["It's delicious."] Chloe: ...Really? ["It must be horrible."] Chloe: Yeah, sweet and salty. It's something to eat separately, not together. ["Then I'll eat all of it."] Chloe: Huh... That's a little... no, very... ...No. [Dialogue merges here.] Bertrand: What are you yapping about, Chloe? You eat meat the pub with cranberry jam and orange sauce all the time. Chloe: ...Oh, yeah. I was too busy thinking about meat to notice that. Flavio: That's so like you. But I've never had meat with fruit sauce before either until coming to High Lagaard. There might have been some at Midgard... but it definitely wasn't as major. Regina: It probably has to do with the region. Still, meat and fruit go well together. This flitter apple especially. Grating it increases the taste, making it perfect for sauce. Chloe: But... Arianna: Dame Chloe, has there ever been a time when Dame Regina's cooking hasn't been delicious? Chloe: ...No. Arianna: Then it's okay! Chloe: ...Alright, I'll take on this new flavor! Flavio: Arianna's gotten used to how to handle Chloe, huh? ["I'm glad they're getting along."] Flavio: Yeah, me too. She was a bit bad-tempered in the beginning, but it's nice now. ["I'm better at controlling Chloe."] Flavio: ...Why are you trying to compete there? Alright, alright. Both you and Arianna are good at it. We all are. [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: Alright, I'll add this to the menu, so order it again whenever you feel like it. I'll be waiting. ~Prepare~ Regina: The fruit sauce and the oil of the meat work quite well with each other. We need to thank whoever tried this combination first. ============================================= [D27] Crab Cream Croquette ============================================= Book: Western Food 3 Ingredients: 2x Meaty Shell; 3x Goatgrass; 2x Meltwater Price: 203en Memo (Hint): Mix string cereal with pure water, add meat from a shell, and deep fry. Memo (Description): Crispy on the outside, the inside is flavorful and creamy. Effect: LUC +10 (LUC has been raised by 10!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: I just finished it. Eat up while it's hot. Bertrand: Croquettes, huh? Looks tasty to me. Chloe: Yeah... I'll eat a bunch. *chomp**chomp* ...!? Mmmmmm! Mmmmmmm! ["What's wrong, Chloe?"/"Is it good?"] Chloe: Nnnng! *huff**huff*...*huff*...! Regina: Chloe, don't rush it! Hot béchamel sauce is a lethal weapon! Chloe: *gulp* You're right... It was very hot. Regina: *sigh* You're supposed to eat meals calmly. Chloe: I'm... sorry. Flavio: Well, let's just say it was so good-looking, she couldn't help herself. It should have cooled off by now, so let's all eat. Arianna: You're right. Then let's... Arianna/Flavio/Bertrand: Thank you for this meal! Flavio: Ooh! The sauce is creamy, and the crab flavor really sticks out... This is really good, Regina! Arianna: I agree. I've never had such a wonderful taste, even back at home! Bertrand: This old man's usually a small eater, but this is pretty good. Regina: I-I see. Those words make it worth working hard making it. Chloe: ...Where's mine? Bertrand: You just ate yours, right? Chloe: But it was so hot I couldn't tell what it tasted like... ...Oh, Siegfried!? You haven't eaten yours yet. Will you share some of yours with me? [Give her all of it.] Chloe: Siegfried! You're awesome, Siegfried! I'm so touched! [Give her half.] Chloe: Siegfried, thank you! Arianna: *giggle* You're so kind, Sir Siegfried. [Don't give her anything.] Chloe: Siegfried... Meanie. Flavio: Hey, you ate first. Siegfried isn't to blame here. [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: Well, I'm glad you're all enjoying it. That makes me satisfied. I'll add this to the menu, so if you really are in the mood for it, you can order it. I'll be waiting. ~Prepare~ Regina: ...When I first started cooking, this dish was something I avoided. I won't let them explode anymore. ============================================= [D28] Forest Paella ============================================= Book: Western Food 3 Ingredients: 3x Horse Filet; 1x Meaty Shell; 1x Petit Onion Price: 186en Memo (Hint): Simmer meat from a shell, a multi-legged beast, and clustered roots together. Memo (Description): The ingredient give flavors to each other, making the dish savory. Effect: Recover TP Each Turn (You now recover TP at the end of each turn!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: I just finished it. Eat up while it's hot. Arianna: My, what an exciting dish, being served in its pot...! Regina: Yeah. This is Apicius' arrangement of a foreign dish called paella. Chloe: From here to here is mine. Flavio: Hey, that's too much! Make it even! Chloe: No. There's more meat from here to here. Regina: ...... ["Cut it evenly."] Regina: ...I see you get it, Siegfried. Look, I've made plenty of it. The meat and vegetables are evenly distributed. So don't go hoarding everything, and eat properly. Chloe: ...Ugh. Arianna: She is right. We should all be nice to each other and eat together! Regina: It would be great if you did. I'll add this to the menu, so order it whenever you want. ["Give me more meat, too!"] Regina: Siegfried! You too!? Flavio: That was asking for trouble... Chloe: Siegfried got yelled at. Regina: Chloe, you're the one that started this in the first place. You two don't get any of the food! Chloe: ...Huh!? Regina: I'll add this to the menu, but if you cause trouble like this again, I'll throw both of you out. Next time, you'll sit and eat properly. Chloe: Awww... ~Prepare~ Regina: The proper way to eat this is directly from the pan. Different countries have different etiquette, you know. ============================================= [D29] Apple Blue Aiyu Jelly ============================================= Book: Chinese Food 3 Ingredients: 1x Cold Gelatin; 4 Glitter Apple; 3x Eternal Ice Price: 219en Memo (Hint): Dice shiny fruit and add to a melted, bouncy blue lump, and cool using snow. Memo (Description): A cool, jiggly dessert with crunchy apples inside. Effect: Therica Range ? (During battle, the effect of single-target ailment/bind-healing items is now increased for the entire line!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: I've finished it... I think. Arianna: My, what an oddly shaped dish. ...I would think that a tad smaller portion would be easier to eat. Bertrand: Er, is this a matter of size!? Regina: I melted it and molded it into bite-size pieces, of course. But when I cooled it, it reverted to this size and shape for some reason. ["Is it okay to eat?"] Regina: The taste is fine, but... Flavio: Well, I trust the flavor... buuuut, that's not what he meant... Regina: I-I know what you're getting at. ["How's it taste?"] Regina: It tastes great, of course. It goes down smoothly, and the apple flavoring mixes well. I say mixes well, but... [Dialogue merges here.] Chloe: After chewing, swallowing, and putting it in your stomach, if you let your belly get cold... will it revert? Arianna: It would be quite heavy on the stomach... Flavio: Is that all that it'd be...? Bertrand: Well, since she's all right, I figure we should be okay... Oh? This does taste good. Flavio: Whoa, old man!? Y-You have guts... Arianna: ...I shall also challenge this because I have faith in Dame Regina and Sir Apicius. Chloe: Me too. Tasty food is not to blame. Regina: I thank you for your consideration. Please enjoy it slowly. ~Prepare~ Regina: No matter how many times I melt and mold it, it reverts back to this shape. Seriously... Why? ============================================= [D30] Bison Lamian ============================================= Book: Chinese Food 3 Ingredients: 4x Beef Loin; 3x Meltwater; 5 Goatgrass Price: 179en Memo (Hint): Use pure water to make noodles from string cereal, and top with horned beast meat. Memo (Description): The savory meat helps add to the texture of the firm noodles. Effect: Ail/Bind = HP Recovery (When inflicted with ailments/binds, you will now recover HP!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: I just finished it. Eat up while it's hot. Chloe: I don't like the green on top. Trand, trade me for meat. Bertrand: Yeah, yeah, go ahead and take 'em. And go ahead and leave 'em. Arianna: Directly onto his plate... That's bad manners! Regina: That's true, but before that... Chloe, I won't allow for fussiness with food. Bertrand: Oh, let her go. It's more of a pain to try and get her to eat them. Chloe: Greens are bitter. I don't understand why you would eat anything bitter outside of medicine. You understand, right, Siegfried? ["It can't be helped."] Chloe: Yep, it can't be helped. Regina: And how can it not be helped? ["That's not good."] Chloe: ...Siegfried betrayed me. Regina: That's your fault for believing in him. ["That's that. Manners are manners."] Chloe: Manners...? Arianna: Sir Siegfried is correct. Touching someone else's plate, handing food over directly from silverware to silverware... Those are all no-nos! Chloe: ...O-Okay. Bertrand: Whoa... Chloe lost to pressure. Arianna: Sir Bertrand, you too! You are the senior here, so you must serve as an example! Bertrand: ...O-Okay. Flavio: She doesn't get angry often, but she's really scary when she does... I'll make sure not to upset her... [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: ...Anyway, I'll add it to the menu. If you order it, you're eating it. All of it. ~Prepare~ Regina: Stretching noodles with just your hands is... quite deep. This dish has me interested. ============================================= [D31] Horse Bao ============================================= Book: Chinese Food 3 Ingredients: 5x Horse Filet; 2x Petit Onion Price: 164en Memo (Hint): Diced multi-legged monster meat steamed with clustered roots and wrap. Memo (Description): A steamed dish with a fluffy outside and a juicy, flavorful inside. Effect: Sleep RES ??? (Resistance to sleep has greatly increased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: I just finished it. Eat up while it's hot. Flavio: Ooh, this is big! And tasty-looking! Chloe: Full of meat juice. Regina: Hey! Don't you start biting! Flavio: But you need to eat it while it's hot, or else it's disrespectful to the bun, right? Regina: Er, well, that's true, but... Arianna: *giggle* They are stuffing themselves in such a delicious manner... Let us eat for ourselves, too! Regina: ...That was it. Arianna: Huh? Regina: I only made two of them. Flavio: Huh!? Regina: I was going to cut them into pieces. I figured you'd be fine since you guys don't eat all that much... Bertrand: *sigh* You guys... Chloe: ...... Flavio: S-Sorry... I already ate it all... ["I won't forgive you."] Flavio: I- I said- I said I was sorry! ["I won't ever forgive you."] Flavio: Y-You're THAT mad...!? [Dialogue merges here.] Chloe: The grudge of food... Scary. I should know best... Flavio: Don't forget you're being grudged right now, too! Arianna: ...That is unfortunate. Regina: Sorry, that's my error. I'll be sure to make one for each of you. ~Prepare~ Regina: The insides are very hot, so be careful. Burn your tongue and you won't be able to enjoy the taste. ============================================= [D32] Snow Crab Foo Young ============================================= Book: Chinese Food 3 Ingredients: 4x Snow Egg; 3x Meaty Shell Price: 169en Memo (Hint): Mix meat from shell and thick egg, then fry. Memo (Description): The fluffy egg melts in your mouth, spreading crab flavor inside. Effect: Arm Bind RES ??? (Resistance to arm bind has greatly increased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: I just finished it. Eat up while it's hot. Bertrand: Huh? The egg shell's on the plate. ...It'll just get in the way. ["It makes it look better."] Arianna: I understand, Sir Siegfried! It is quite cute, as if the food has spilled from the egg, right? Bertrand: It look like a failed attempt at cracking the egg open to me... Regina: How rude. And let me tell you: that shell is edible. Bertrand: What? I've never heard of an egg shell you can eat. ["It actually can be eaten."] Bertrand: Alright, then try eating it. And don't tell me you can't. It may have been a joke, but your word is your word... You bite the bullet and break off a piece of the shell. ...... ......! It is crunchy and sweet! Bertrand: Huh? It's good? Whaddya mean!? It's an egg shell! [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: That is thanks to the forest ingredients. But flavoring it with the oil when frying makes it edible. Chloe: ...Interesting. Flavio: But even knowing that, it still takes a lot of courage to eat it... Regina: Ha. Once you taste it, you won't have that problem. I'll add it to the menu, so take your time eating. ~Prepare~ Regina: You can enjoy it up to the shell. And when you reach the shell... It's addicting, you know? ============================================= [D33] Traditional Kabutoyaki ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 3 Ingredients: 1x Fish Head; 1x Winter Daikon Price: 152en Memo (Hint): Cook an entire fish head and serve with grated white roots. Memo (Description): The savory fish and daikon match well, but some may not like the looks. Effect: Sleep Effect ?? (When an enemy is inflicted with sleep, the chance of waking it with an attack has decreased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: A traditional eastern dish, kabutoyaki. It's quite a piece of work. Arianna: ...Kabuto...yaki? Regina: Around the duchy we tend to throw this part away, but in the hands of Apicius, it turns into a delicacy. Flavio: I don't really get it... but I can tell that Apicius was a great man. Arianna: I see... Kabutoyaki... We do not have a tradition of cooking those in my country. Sir Siegfried, what do you think? ["Sounds delicious."] Arianna: ...I-Is that so? You seem to be very inquisitive when it comes to food. I am... a bit hesitant to eat a grilled kabuto beetle. ["It's a bit cruel."] Arianna: Y-Yes, you agree, don't you! It's a bit cruel to cook a kabuto beetle. [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: Uhhh, Arianna. Just in case you didn't know, kabutoyaki is a broiled fish head. It has nothing to do with the insect. Arianna: ...Huh? Regina: ...Hm? Arianna: O-Oh... Is that so? I completely thought it was an insect dish... That was quite embarrassing. Bertrand: But still... It does look a bit cruel, either way... Flavio: It's a fish head cooked whole, after all... Regina: ...Despite its look, it tastes great. I'll add it to the menu, so order it whenever you feel like it. ~Prepare~ Regina: It isn't a part that is often consumed in High Lagaard, but those who love it, love it. ============================================= [D34] Snow Egg Oden ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 3 Ingredients: 2x Snow Egg; 4x Freshwater Filet; 1x Winter Daikon Price: 183en Memo (Hint): Stew filets, roots, and eggs in a broth for a long period of time. Memo (Description): A stew where each ingredient's flavor soaks into one another. Effect: Adds Fire Element 1T (For the first turn of battle, your weapons will have fire element!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: I just finished it. Eat up while it's hot. Bertrand: Oden? ...That like a pot-au-feu? Regina: Well, the broth is different, but you can consider the basis the same. It's a traditional dish in an eastern country, but using mustard as a condiment is another resemblance. Flavio: Hmm... It's interesting for dishes from completely different countries to have such similarities... Regina: The way food is prepared varies greatly, but sometimes you get these coincidences. ...The desire to eat delicious food is something that is the same for all countries, huh? ["Exactly."] Regina: I'm sure Apicius made this recipe in search of delicacies here in this once-poor country. ["Really?"] Regina: I can't say for sure since I haven't been to every country, but I'd like to think so. [Dialogue merges here.] Chloe: Tasty things are good things. That's a fact. Chloe approves. Regina: *chuckle* Thanks. Alright. I'll put this on the menu, so order it again. I'll be waiting. ~Prepare~ Regina: It's well-stewed, so the flavor is infused. Just... be careful when eating the egg. It's hot... Very hot. ============================================= [D35] Crab Chazuke ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 3 Ingredients: 1x Meaty Shell; 3x Meltwater; 1x Forest Tea Price: 210en Memo (Hint): Remove meat from shell and place on rice, then add pure water with tea leaves. Memo (Description): The extract from the crab is strong, but the tea makes it easy to eat. Effect: Enemy Chance ? (The chance of an Enemy Grimoire Chance occurring has increased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: I just finished it. Eat up while it's hot. Chloe: *huff*... *huff**huff*... Arianna: Dame Chloe, you'll spill your food eating so hastily like that. Chloe: But... it's so good. I'm surprised that it's so delicious, even though it's not meat! Bertrand: You're right... The crab flavoring mixes with each grain of rice, and the pleasant-smelling tea is in complete harmony... ...Yeah, this old man's satisfied. Good work, kid. Regina: That comment makes me happy, but... the both of you are spilling way too much. [Warn Chloe.] Chloe: But you're supposed to eat hot things while they're hot. Regina: Well, you're right about that. You just need to get better at eating it... [Warn Bertrand.] Bertrand: ...Huh? Hold on a sec. Let me just finish this... *huff*... *huff*... *siiip*... Regina: ...... [Spill your chazuke.] Arianna: Huh!? Wh-What's wrong? Are you not hot? You've spilled some tea onto yourself. Chloe: Siegfried, calm down. Regina: Look who's talking, Chloe. You guys... [Dialogue merges here.] Arianna: ...Looking at this, it seems this dish does not do well with manners. Regina: It's just that their way of eating it is wrong. Pouring tea onto the dish and eating is a custom from another culture. It isn't improper, so don't worry. Arianna: I see. Then... I shall eat as well! Regina: I'll add this to the menu, so order it if you feel like eating it. ~Prepare~ Regina: Apparently, this is for times when you don't feel like eating... but smelling this, how can you not get hungry? ============================================= [D36] Apple Matcha Shaved Ice ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 3 Ingredients: 3x Eternal Ice; 2x Glitter Apple; 1x Forest Tea Price: 190en Memo (Hint): Shave a block of ice, and place sliced shining fruit with powdered leaves. Memo (Description): A mountain of shaved ice flavored with a sweet, then bitter sauce. Effect: Blind Effect ?? (When inflicted with blind, the enemy's hit rate will decrease even more!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: I just finished preparing it. Could you eat it right now? Arianna: Oh my...! All you did was shave off some ice, yet it's so soft and glittery...! It's like magic! Flavio: Wow... I've never had such a cold dessert before! This is amazing! Chloe: Cold things are expensive. This is the first time I've had it. Bertrand: Ice that doesn't melt is something that only the forest can give ya. Regina: Yeah. There are alchemists that sell ice, but because it's hard to make, there aren't many. It's hard to find in bulk. Flavio: Ooh...! Apples are popping out here and there...! ...!? Arianna: Sir Flavio!? Before you can ask your friend what was wrong, your head is hit with an intense pain! You feel like your head is being squeezed with immense power! Chloe's voice: Regina, hot tea. Let them have some. Regina's voice: R-Right! I'll go get some. Siegfried, are you alright...? You slowly drink the tea Regina prepared. Eventually, your headache recedes... Flavio: Ugh... What was that? That really hurt... Chloe: If you eat cold food too quickly, your body becomes cold. It causes a headache for some. Regina: ...Is that so? I see. I've never really handled really cold food, so I didn't know about that. ["Thanks, Chloe."/ "You're knowledgeable, Chloe."] Chloe: Mm-hm! Regina: ...I thought you were just a meat-lover, but you really are a healer. Chloe: Mm-hm again! Bertrand: Hey Chloe, she wasn't praising you there. ["More tea please."] Regina: ...I'm not a waitress, but I'll do it since you're still aching. Bertrand: Girl, get me some, too. Regina: ...I guess it can't be helped since you're eating the shaved ice too. Hold on, I'll bring tea for all of you. [Dialogue merges here.] Arianna: But why is it that Damn Chloe has eaten so much shaved ice, and yet hasn't gotten a headache? Chloe: Varies from person to person? Flavio: That's not fair... Ugh, my head... Regina: ...I'll serve hot tea with this dish. You don't need to worry the next time you order it. ~Prepare~ Regina: Eat slowly with some hot tea. Eat too fast and you'll get a headache. ============================================= [D37] Scorpion Green Pasta ============================================= Book: Western Food 4 Ingredients: 1x Scorpion Claw; 3x Uguisuna; 3x Scarebird Egg Price: 243en Memo (Hint): Knead vivid vegetables and a large egg into noodles, then garnish with monster arms. Memo (Description): Chewy, vivid noodles are complimented by the scorpion. Effect: Escape Rate ? (Chance of escaping has increased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Alright, it's done. Could you try eating it now? Arianna: What an aggressive pasta this is...! Um, so what are we supposed to do? Regina: ...Hm? Eat it, what else? Arianna: Like... this? Regina: Yeah. The venom's been removed, so you can just crunch into it. It's got good texture. ["I'd like to try it."] Regina: Yeah, you can enjoy it by eating it with the pasta at the same time. ["...I'm a bit hesitant."] Regina: I do understand what you're saying, but... Well, you don't have to eat it if you don't want to. Try eating it if you feel up to it, though. [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: I'll add this to the menu, so order it whenever you feel like it. I'll be waiting. ~Prepare~ Regina: Good stock, good looks. There's nothing of a scorpion that goes to waste. ============================================= [D38] Honey German Potato ============================================= Book: Western Food 4 Ingredients: 2x Sakura Potato; 5x Wasp Honey Price: 205en Memo (Hint): Stir-fry pink roots, and pour sauce made form honey on top. Memo (Description): The crispy potatoes match well with the honey sauce. Effect: AGI +10 (AGI has been raised by 10!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Alright, it's done. Could you try eating it now? Flavio: You know, this looks too simple... Is it me, or do I have a right to be wary? ["It's just you."] Flavio: Huh, it's just me? Really? Bertrand: It's true we've been served some bizarre dishes, but there's never been a problem with the taste, right? Arianna: Exactly. We have faith in Dame Regina's cooking abilities. Chloe: Only Flavio is wary. Flavio: U-Urgh... ["Actually, me too..."] Flavio: Yeah, right!? There's no telling what's what with her. Regina: Well aren't you two rude. I simply prepared the ingredients you brought. ["Worrisome Flavio."] Flavio: Wha-- Don't give me weird names! Treeclimbing Flavio is enough as it is! Regina: Hey, you two! Stop making a ruckus during the meal! Flavio: S-Sorry! [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: I'll add this to the menu, so order it whenever you feel like it. I'll be waiting. ~Prepare~ Regina: This is great when you're just a little hungry. I'll bring you something to drink, too. ============================================= [D39] Strawberry-Jam Loin Steak ============================================= Book: Western Food 4 Ingredients: 5x Cockatrice Leg; 2x Big Strawberry; 2x Sakura Petal Price: 247en Memo (Hint): Broil loin meat, and garnish with sauce made from petals and a large fruit. Memo (Description): The leg is crispy, but works well with the sweet strawberry-petal jam. Effect: VIT +10 (VIT has been raised by 10!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Alright, it's done. Can you try eating it now? Chloe: Meat, meat. Meatmeatmeat. Bertrand: Hey, this jam is made from that humongous strawberry, right? Wouldn't you have an incredible amount of jam if you made it from that? Flavio: Come to think of it... you're right. Is the kitchen jam hell right now...? Regina: You don't have to worry about that. It's a watery fruit, so boiling it reduces the amount by quite a lot. Plus, there are plenty of ways to use the jam, like including some with bread. ...Or maybe filling up small jars to give to customers to take home. ["Crafty, eh?"] Regina: Y-You think? ...I just thought of that because there were customers that asked me if they could take home some spices... Arianna: *giggle* Dame Regina always thinks about her customers. Regina: It's no big deal. But, well... I think the same about you. ["You should charge."] Regina: I thought about that, but I figured it'd be a good advertisement for the café to give them out for free first. Arianna: I see...! You have to lose in order to gain, right? Regina: Yeah. I know of a few customers that'd like to use my spices, so I think they'd advertise for me. [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: Alright, I'll add this to the menu, so order it again whenever you feel like it. ...I'll be waiting. ~Prepare~ Regina: A place with flowers this beautiful, huh... I know the forest is a dangerous place, but I want to check it out one day. ============================================= [D40] Rhino Meat Stew ============================================= Book: Western Food 4 Ingredients: 3x Rhino Shoulder; 3x Sakura Potato; 2x Duck Nuts Price: 292en Memo (Hint): Stew protected meat, roots, and strangely shaped nuts until tender. Memo (Description): The meat and vegetables create the perfect balance for this stew. Effect: Item Drop Rate ? (Item drop rate has increased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Alright, it's done. Could you try eating it now? Arianna: Wow...! Since High Lagaard is a cold country, I'm sure warm food like this is welcome. Regina: Yeah, a lot of customers order warm dishes. This recipe is perfect. ["I hope they like it."] Regina: ...Yeah, I hope so too. Lately, I have been having fun imagining the looks on the customers' faces as I cook. Arianna: Dame Regina... Regina: Wh-What's with those eyes, Arianna? Don't look at me like that. Arianna: What do you mean "like that"? I was just gazing at you out of joy... Regina: Stop that, I said! I'm still not used to that aspect of you... Chloe: Regina... Do you hate Arianna? Regina: That's not what I meant... Argh, I'll just add this to the menu! Come eat it whenever you want! ["Seconds, please!"] Regina: Haha, that's the spirit. I'm hoping everyone think it's good enough for seconds. Flavio: Oh, this'll definitely become popular! I want seconds, too! Chloe: Me too. Regina: *giggle* Eat as much as you want. I still have a potful. I'll add this to the menu, so order it whenever you want to. I'll be waiting. ~Prepare~ Regina: I have a whole pot full of it.

(*Thud!*) Chloe: Flavio passed out. Regina: What? Why? What did I do? Arianna: Sir Flavio does not like insects... spiders in particular. Regina: What a coward. Bertrand: Whoa, whoa, hold on there, kid. Just this once, I'm with him. Now, let me say this on his behalf: What the hell is this!? Regina: Fried whole spider. I told you the recipe name before, right? Bertrand: Like that tsukudani before, why the hell does Apicius want to eat bugs as-is!? Regina: High Lagaard wasn't an easy land to raise livestock, I hear. This was a precious source of meat, most likely. Arianna: I see... It is a dish that tells us the history of High Lagaard. Bertrand: That's not the point... Uhhh... Sorry, kid. This old man is out of things to say. Arianna: However, coming face to face with it... It is rather difficult to eat. I do feel sorry for it. Regina: ...You said that before, thinking about it. Siegfried, what about you? Do you dislike the looks of this dish? ["It's instinctively gross."] Regina: I see... ["It's acceptable."] Regina: Hrm, I see. So it varies from person to person. [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: It looks like I need to think about this. I can only see them as ingredients, so I don't understand it. Though I feel really bad about what I did to Flavio... ["Don't worry about it."] Regina: Thank you, Siegfried. ["Let's hide it before he wakes."] Regina: Yeah, that's for the better. ...Too bad since it's tasty and healthy. ["Let's make him eat it."] Regina: ...I see. Make him eat it so that he can overcome his fears, huh? That may be a good idea. If he eats what he's afraid of, he might no longer become fearful of it. Bertrand: ...Allow me to speak on Flavio's behalf. Don't. Regina: Do you think? I thought it was a good idea... [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: I'll add a note to the menu warning those who can't stand insects. When you order it, I'll make sure Flavio doesn't pass out again. ~Prepare~ Regina: Oh, you like this? I was bummed that not many people were ordering it. ============================================= [D42] Forest Fried Rice ============================================= Book: Chinese Food 4 Ingredients: 2x Ptar Brest; 3x Scarebird Egg Price: 207en Memo (Hint): Crack a large egg into a hot wok, and stir-fry with chopped breast meat.

["Brava, Regina!"] Regina: I-I told you before... Flattery will get you nowhere. ...... Here, have a second helping. Flavio: Ooh! Thanks a bunch, Regina! Regina: Stop flattering me! I won't give you any more seconds, you got it!? ["Seconds!"] Regina: ...Ha, fine, fine. Here, have as much as you like. [Dialogue merges here.] Chloe: Is it just me? Regina's face looks gentle. Bertrand: She's settled things in her mind. She's got a refreshed look on her face. Arianna: Just like you, Sir Bertrand? Bertrand: ...Quiet, kid. Regina: I'll add this to the menu, so order it whenever you feel like it. I'll be waiting. ~Prepare~ Regina: It may just be stir-frying, but that's the precise reason why it's hard. You need heat... and guts. ============================================= [D43] Stewed Rhino ============================================= Book: Chinese Food 4 Ingredients: 4x Rhino Shoulder; 2x Uguisuna; 2x Wasp Honey Price: 243en Memo (Hint): Stew horned-beast meat until tender, add honey, then garnish with greens.

Is something the matter, Dame Chloe? Bertrand: You're being quiet for once. Not gonna sing the meat song? Flavio: Do you have a fever or...? Maybe you have a stomachache! Chloe: I'm not sick. Chloe is simply... moved. The meat is so big and juicy... It's a waste to eat it... ["Good for you, Chloe."] Chloe: Chloe cannot thank Regina and Apicius enough for this... I want to just gaze at this dish all day... Regina: Er, eat it, by all means. It's good cold, but it'll be a different taste. ["Then, I'll go first."] Chloe: !!!?!!! Regina: ...Hey, don't do it. You'll be hated for life. Flavio: Yeah, if you take the meat from Chloe right now, I don't think even I could back you up... Bertrand: Same here. Arianna: Oh, everyone...! Sir Siegfried would never do something so heinous as that. Regina: You think so? He sure looked serious to me. ["Of course I was joking."] Arianna: *giggle* Of course. I believe in Sir Siegfried! ["I'm sorry."] Regina: *sigh* Make sure you apologize to Arianna for believing in you, too. Arianna: Huh? ...Um, what do you mean? Why are you apologizing...? [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: Well, take your time to enjoy it. I'll add it to the menu, so order it again. I'll be waiting. Chloe: Yes, I'll take my time to eat it. ...I'll savor it. Flavio: She really does look happy... ~Prepare~ Regina: It's a big chunk of meat, but you won't need a knife. I hope you enjoy how tender it is. ============================================= [D44] Pepper Cockatrice ============================================= Book: Chinese Food 4 Ingredients: 3x Cockatrice Leg; 2x Uguisuna; 2x Pea Pod Price: 226en Memo (Hint): Slice bird meat and vivid vegetables, then stir-fry with young beans.

Could you try eating it now? Chloe: This is... Flavio: Wow, that looks good! I like that look of it: as rich as it looks! Chloe: Flavio. That is not the problem at hand. Arianna: Dame Chloe...? Is there something wrong with this dish? Chloe: Something really wrong. This dish... it is difficult to remove the vegetables. Arianna: Oh my...! Would it not be a problem if you simply at them together? ["Don't be so fussy."] Arianna: He's right. Dame Regina's vegetables are also very delicious. Chloe: Urgh... Regina: I've always thought this, but you're too picky with your food, Chloe. Eat before you pass judgment. ["Let's work at it."] Chloe: Sorting the vegetables out, one by one... When the ritual is over, I feel like something good can be summoned. Flavio: What do you mean ritual? Stop eating like that too, Siegfried. Regina: *sigh* I shake my head watching the fanatics of you two meat worshippers... [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: I'll add this to the menu, so order it whenever you feel like it. I'll be waiting. ~Prepare~ Regina: Let me warn you... You'd better not pick out just the meat, you hear? ============================================= [D45] Shell Yakiniku ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 4 Ingredients: 1x Metal Shell; 4x Rhino Shoulder; 3x Ptar Breast Price: 243en Memo (Hint): Cook various meats directly on top of a heated monster shell.

(When inflicted with paralysis, there is a higher chance the enemy will not be able to move!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Alright, it's done. Could you try eating it now? Chloe: Meat! Flavio: Calm down, Chloe! First, take a look at what's below that! Chloe: ...A shell? And, it's cooking the meat? But it has nothing to do with the meat part. Chloe says this is edible. ["Something might seep out."] Flavio: Whoa, that sounds a bit scary! Regina: What do you mean by "something"? That's rude to say that in front of the person who made it. ["There's no problem."/Dialogue merges here.] Regina: I'm just using that in place of a grill. It's no different. Bertrand: Then why don't you just NOT use the shell? Regina: ...I thought that too and tried it in a normal pan, but... The taste turned out differently. Flavio: So maybe something IS seeping out! Arianna: Huh? But it's delicious. Chloe: Meat paradise. Flavio: You're already eating it!? Regina: ...I can vouch for the taste. Could you order it when you feel like it? ~Prepare~ Regina: Cooking on this shell makes the meat and vegetables really savory. ...I don't know why, though. ============================================= [D46] Strawberry Daikuku ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 4 Ingredients: 3x Big Strawberry; 3x Wasp Honey Price: 216en Memo (Hint): A candy made from honey and a giant red fruit, wrapped with mochi.

Effect: Attack Item Effect 3x (Attack items will now deal triple the damage!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Alright, it's done. Can you try eating it now? Flavio: ...... That's huge! THIS is half!? It's as big as my head! ["It's all-you-can-eat."] Flavio: I guess you can say that. It's not often when you can eat all you want. Let's give it a try! Bertrand: Ooh... You kids have young stomachs, too. This old man'll just take the strawberry part. Arianna: Then I will take the filling part! *giggle* I'll take a lot. Chloe: I'll take all. ["Can we finish this...?"] Flavio: Well, we have Regina, so maybe the six of us can take it on...? Arianna: That's right! We can do it! Chloe: Hoorah. Bertrand: You young'uns have young stomachs, too. ["I wanted one for myself."] Flavio: Wha-- You're not going to order another, are you!? This here is one Flavio; you gonna eat two Flavios!? Chloe: We need to be challengers. Arianna: Yes, if we work together... we won't lose to anything! Flavio: Was the conversation this epic!? This is dessert we're talking about here! [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: Hrm, just as I thought... This dish is perfect for groups. I'll add this to the menu, so order it whenever you feel like it. I'll be waiting. ~Prepare~ Regina: Now everyone, enjoy.

Memo (Description): Bitter tea made easy to drink with sweet honey, having relaxing effects. Effect: Passive Chance ? (The chance of a Passive Grimoire Chance occurring has increased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Alright, it's done. Could you give it a drink? Bertrand: Hrm... Gotta love tea. I like black tea, but green tea isn't bad, either. Flavio: ...Come to think of it, I see you drinking tea all the time instead of eating. Are you a tea-lover or something? Bertrand: Ahhh, well... I guess you can say that. Chloe: ...Trand, you're not going to tell him? Bertrand: ...... [Ask about it.] Bertrand: ...Well, I guess I should tell you. [Don't ask about it.] Bertrand: Oh, don't make that face. It's not anything serious, I tell you. [Dialogue merges here.] Bertrand: It seems my body changed a little since the last ritual. I don't get very hungry. I tested it out one time. I can live off of just water for two months. So there you have it. After that, it's been a habit of mine to drink water and tea. Arianna: The last ritual... Flavio: ...The reason you always shared your meal with Chloe was because you weren't hungry? Bertrand: Yeah. Useful body, eh? ["It is useful."] Bertrand: Yeah, it was a valuable trait back when I was traveling alone. ["...Not really."] Bertrand: ...Yeah, maybe you're right. [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: It's hard to believe... You said you don't get hungry, but what about taste? Bertrand: Hm? I can taste the difference. I can smell, too... That's why I prefer tea over water. Regina: ...... Chloe: Regina, don't worry. Trand isn't a fan of eating... but he's having fun eating here. Regina: Ah... is that so? Bertrand: Well, I suppose. It's not a bad thing eating here with you kids. I used to skip out because eating was a pain, but now... not so much. ["Let's eat together more."] Bertrand: Yeah, at this restaurant... right? ["No skipping out anymore."] Bertrand: Yeah, yeah, I get it. I'll eat with you kids at this restaurant. [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: ...I see. ...I'll add this tea to the menu, so you're more than welcome to come eat, even if it's just for tea. ~Prepare~ Regina: I think this is great for calming yourself down. I hope today's exploration goes well. ============================================= [D48] Stone Bird Nikujaga ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 4 Ingredients: 4x Cockatrice Leg; 4x Sakura Potato; 2x Pea Pod Price: 235en Memo (Hint): Chop and stew muscular loins and pink roots, then add sealed beans. Memo (Description): Flavor is infused into the potato and meat, and the peas give it color. Effect: Grimoire Add Effect ? (The chance of Grimoires having an additional effect has increased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Alright, it's done. Could you try eating it now? Arianna: My, this is quite a refined taste. The potato is nice and hot... *giggle* I cannot help but smile! Regina: ...Arianna really eats food so deliciously. ["She's cute, huh?"] Regina: Yeah, I agree. She is a cute person. Arianna: ...... U-Um... Is something the matter, you two? It is hard for me to eat while you two are staring at me... ["I won't lose either."] Regina: Haha, I see you're not. You and Arianna make a great couple. Arianna: Urgh!? Regina: What's wrong, Arianna? It's not like you to choke on food. Arianna: Th-That's because... Um... [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: You're a strange one. But, as long as you like the dish, there's no problem. I'll add this to the menu, so order it whenever you feel like it. I'll be waiting. ~Prepare~ Regina: Smells delicious, right? They call this the "taste of home cooking". It's interesting there's a culture that cooks houses. ============================================= [D49] Ominous Aspic ============================================= Book: Western Food 5 Ingredients: 1x Purple Gel; 3x Black Breast; 3x Purified Water Price: 386en Memo (Hint): Stew a glowing lump and lean meat with pure water, then cool to harden Memo (Description): The gelatin is flavorful, but not all may like its appearance. Effect: Walk to Recover TP (You now recover some TP after taking a certain number of steps in the Labyrinth!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: ...... Everyone: ...... ["How'd it end up like this?"] Regina: ...I wonder the same thing. ["...Is this food?"] Regina: All the ingredients are edible. [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: I checked the recipe over and over. I didn't do a single thing wrong. But when it got to the hardening stage, the dish just started to creep out of the mold. Bertrand: Aaand it became this... Didn't something like this happen before? Chloe: But that blue jelly was good, so this should be good, too. Regina: ...... Chloe: Regina? Why aren't you saying anything? Regina: ...Er, well... ["Did you taste it?"] Regina: I really regret to say... but I haven't since it's become this shape. ["Is it no good?"] Regina: ...I don't know. Arianna: Huh? Do you mean... you have yet to taste it? Regina: It is a big taboo as a cook not to do so, but since it has taken this shape... I... [Dialogue merges here.] Flavio: Well, I... can't blame you. Heck, knowing how you made it, it's probably even harder for you to try, being freaked out... Regina: ...No, but as the cook, it is my responsibility. I'll taste it now! ["Good luck, Regina."] Regina: Yeah, I'll fulfill my duties. ["Don't."] Regina: No, don't stop me! It's unforgivable for me to serve you food I haven't tasted! [Dialogue for the previous two options merges here.] Regina: Now then...! Regina: ...... Flavio: H-How is it? Regina: Urgh...! *collapses* Arianna: Dame Regina!? O-Oh, no! Please, hang in there! Regina: I-I apologize. It was a completely unexpected taste. Or rather, it's not a bad taste, but... This doesn't make any sense. I didn't add anything that would make it taste this way... Regina: No wait, before that, the flavor is way too different from before it hardened... What happened when it cooled...? Flavio: Th-that's scary... ["I'll taste it."] Regina: Siegfried... I accept your resolution. ...Then let us both taste it. Now then...! You close your eyes and put the jiggly purple block in your mouth. ..Within the slimy gelatin is a crunchy texture as well as a springy texture you cannot bite through... ...In regards to the flavor, you have no capacity to describe it. It is like you ate a tender steak... or perhaps a burnt shrimp... You cannot even tell if it tastes good or bad. It is simply... incomprehensible! Flavio: How was it...? ["I don't know."] Flavio: Y-You ate it, yet... you don't know? Regina: ...Unfortunately, I don't know either. It's not a bad taste, but... ["It's harmless, at least."] Flavio: At least!? Regina: ...That's about the only thing I can say about it, too. There is nothing wrong with my body... but... [All dialogue merges here.] Regina: What IS this dish, Apicius...? Arianna: ...This rather interests me. Bertrand: H-Hrmmm... Chloe: Apicius is amazing. ...Let's try it, too. Flavio: R-Right...! Regina: Y-Yes. Please do. The taste isn't bad, but... Huh... Still, how did it come to this...? ~Prepare~ Regina: I shouldn't be saying this as the cook, but why did it turn out like this...? ============================================= [D50] Triple Salisbury ============================================= Book: Western Food 5 Ingredients: 3x Black Breast; 3x Tortoise Meat; 3x Jewel Skirt Price: 333en Memo (Hint): Slice three different meats, and broil under high heat.

They're quite cute. I don't know which one to start with. Flavio: Hm, each one really does have a different flavor. I used to think meat was meat, but they all taste unique. Chloe: Even Inelaborate Flavio gets it. This dish is incredible. Flavio: I-Inelaborate... Sure, I don't mind being called that by everyone... except you. Chloe: But, you say things like, "This beef is good," while eating chicken. I can't believe it. Flavio: The sauce was the same! No one thinks about different types of meats when eating, right? ["I never thought of it."] Flavio: Yeah, see!? Siegfried doesn't do it, either! Chloe: You both don't have enough love for meat. Arianna: *giggle* But you two can tell the difference now. This dish is amazing, isn't it? ["You can tell."] Flavio: Huh!? Y-You can tell...? Arianna: They all have their characteristics. In the first place, isn't the shape of beef and poultry different? Bertrand: You really don't think at all when eating, huh...? Flavio: Huh? I-I'M the odd one...!? Arianna: *giggle* But even Sir Flavio can tell the difference now. This dish is amazing, isn't it? [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: I changed the spices used to bring out the characteristics of each meat. ...If you couldn't tell the difference with this, I think Apicius would be in shock. Bertrand: Good thing you were able to tell, eh, Flavio? Flavio: ...Am I THAT bad? Regina: I'll add this to the menu, so you can try enjoying it in other ways, like changing the sauce or eating blindfolded. ~Prepare~ Regina: You can change the flavor by changing the sauce you use. Enjoy the different combinations. ============================================= [D51] Steak Tartare ============================================= Book: Western Food 5 Ingredients: 4x Fatty Horse; 2x Sky Egg Price: 329en Memo (Hint): Marinate a vivid meat, and top with a thick yellow.

This is like a meat cake. It's so beautiful... Regina: You break the yolk on top and mix it together. Like this... Chloe: Ahhh!? Regina: Wh-What is it!? What's wrong!? ["Don't worry about her. Keep going."] Regina: A-Are you sure? She sounded incredibly dejected... ["*sigh*"] Regina: I-I'm asking what the problem is! What did I do!? [Dialogue merges here.] Bertrand: Oh, don't worry about her. She's probably in shock seeing the meat being crushed. You never think about how you eat normally, but you're so loud when it comes to meat. Chloe: But... it was so beautiful that I wanted to gaze at it more. The meat cake... Regina: S-Sorry... I didn't mean to disappoint you. But, this dish is all about freshness, so you have to mix the egg and eat quickly, or else it'd lose its flavor. Chloe: You should have told me that earlier. Hurry and mix it, Regina. Regina: ...... Arianna: *giggle* Dame Chloe is truly serious when it comes to meat. Flavio: No, she's just being selfish. Regina: ...Whatever. I'll add this to the menu, so eat it however you choose. ~Prepare~ Regina: Some might be turned off by the raw meat, but it's a taste you can't get by cooking it. It's something I wish everyone would try. ============================================= [D52] Stone Galette ============================================= Book: Western Food 5 Ingredients: 2x Soft Floor; 3x Sky Egg; 1x Mandrake Leaf Price: 336en Memo (Hint): Cook a high-altitude egg with leaves grown on a monster on a clay tile. Memo (Description): The porcelain is heated, cooking the food inside. Effect: TEC +10 (TEC has been raised by 10!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Alright, it's done. Now, eat up! Bertrand: Ooh...!? I was wondering what was going to come out when we were told to bring soft floor. It's actually pretty normal. Flavio: Heck, it looks really good! Regina: Yeah, I also was wondering how it would look after reading the recipe. ...The biggest thing to learn from Apicius' recipes is probably his flexible approach. It's not easy to take things that don't look like ingredients at first try and try finding ways to use them. ["That's the spirit."] Regina: Ha, I don't know if I can reach the same heights as Apicius, but I will continue to strive. Arianna: That's incredible, Dame Regina! I'll be cheering for you. Chloe: I'm happy to have more food to eat. ["You probably shouldn't..."] Regina: Hm? Don't make that face. I'm not thinking of starting off with something as extreme as cooking walls. Arianna: Walls... Would that be sautéed? Perhaps a butter flavor would make it- Flavio: Inedible! You're putting too much faith in butter! Even butter would question the strength of butter in this regard! [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: Well, first, I'll see if I can use this galette in other recipes. Alright, I'll add this to the menu, so order it again whenever you feel like it. I'll be waiting. ~Prepare~ Regina: I never imagined such flavor could come from flooring... Apicius' ideas are truly amazing. ============================================= [D53] Nozuchi Soup ============================================= Book: Chinese Food 5 Ingredients: 1x Nozuchi Body; 1x Purified Water; 5x Mandrake Leaf Price: 329en Memo (Hint): Stew monster leaves and body with pure water until tender. Memo (Description): Stewed over a long time, even the bones are soft in this soup. Effect: Ail/Bind Recovery in 3T (When inflicted with ailments/binds, you will now naturally recover within three turns!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Alright, it's done. Now, eat up! Flavio: ...Uh, er, you know... something is, uh, sticking out? Regina: Don't worry. It's sticking out of the soup, but it's been cooked and is edible. ["That's not the point."] Regina: Hrm, could it be... the presentation again? ["Then it's A-OK!"] Regina: Of course. I would never serve you anything that wasn't safe to eat. Bertrand: Siegfried, Regina. I... don't think that's the problem here. Regina: Hm? Then... is it the presentation? [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: It looks hard to eat at first, but it's been stewed long enough, so you can eat the bones, too. Arianna: Th-The bones, as well...!? We can eat... even the face? Th-That's... a bit cruel. Chloe: If it's easy to eat, I have no problem. Bertrand: Ooh, using it whole really makes the soup good, too. Even though it's using meat, it's not that fatty. It sure is easy for this old man to eat. Flavio: ...Old man, I can't believe you can drink that. Regina: Hrmmm... It looks like this is another dish that'll require a warning on the menu. The taste is exquisite and it's full of nutrient, so I'd appreciate it if you ordered it again. I'll be waiting. ~Prepare~ Regina: It's tasty and nutritional. Go ahead, eat it whole. ============================================= [D54] Nest and Mushroom Soup ============================================= Book: Chinese Food 5 Ingredients: 3x Swallow Nest; 3x Stone Mushroom Price: 264en Memo (Hint): Use saliva and chopped mushroom to boil and make a soup. Memo (Description): A soup with a flavored nest and sliced mushrooms. Effect: Ail/Bind = Build Force (When inflicted with ailments/binds, you will now build Force gauge!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Alright, it's done. Now, eat up! Chloe: This soup doesn't have meat... Flavio: Well, yeah. There wasn't any meat in the ingredients. But what's this white thing? ...Hm, it doesn't really have any flavor. Bertrand: Hey guys, bird nests are expensive ingredients here. That's an unworthy opinion, eh? Flavio: Huh!? This is THAT expensive!? ["No wonder it's so good."] Flavio: Wh-Whuh!? I-It's good...? I mean, the soup is great, but this white thing not so much... Regina: Calm down. Just because it's expensive doesn't mean the flavor's good. ["...I don't get what's the fuss."] Flavio: Y-Yeah, huh? Huh!? I mean, the soup's great and all, but this white thing isn't THAT good, right? Regina: You're right. [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: This ingredient is valued for its texture and nourishment... and most of all its rarity. Well, this is from the forest, so the price is probably different from the regular ones. Chloe: Nourishment... Is it a medicine? What kind of effect does it have? Regina: Let's see... According to Apicius' recipe... it's good for the throat and skin. Arianna: The skin...!? Regina: Wh-What is it? Is something wrong? Arianna: Dame Regina, please give me another serving of this soup! Regina: O-Okay... Sure. What happened to her, all of a sudden? Bertrand: ...Just goes to show that she's a girl, too. Do you want my soup, too? Arianna: Yes, please! Regina: I don't understand... but if you like it, then you can order it again. I'll prepare it for you anytime. ~Prepare~ Regina: The female customers said their skin looked great after eating this. ...It seems it has various effects. ============================================= [D54] Zhulongbao ============================================= Book: Chinese Food 5 Ingredients: 4x Jewel Skirt; 2x Stone Mushroom; 2x Mandrake Leaf Price: 338en Memo (Hint): Slowly steam minced belly meat, mushrooms, and leaves wrapped in a bun.

Now, eat up! Chloe: ...Ooh! It's full of meat! Wonderful! ...... ...Mm!? Regina: ...Shoot, I forgot to warn you. Hot soup is inside, so be careful when eating it. Chloe: ...... ...Too late, Regina. My tongue is burning... Regina: It's my fault for not warning you earlier, but you should eat more calmly, you know. ["Yeah, let's eat slowly."] Regina: See? Siegfried agrees. ["It's meat. We can't help it."] Regina: *sigh* Not you, too. [Dialogue merges here.] Bertrand: Hey, let's cut with the chit-chat and eat them before they get cold. Arianna: You're right. Let's. Flavio: Let's eat! Regina: Yeah, bon appétit. I'll add this item to the menu, so order it again. ~Prepare~ Regina: Hot soup is inside, so move it to a plate before eating. ...Be careful, okay?

Arianna: This is the soft floor that we brought, yes? ...Does cooking it make it edible? ["Let me try."] You decide to try and cut off a piece of clay from the side of the dish. ...It is quite hard when you cut it and does not feel like it can be eaten. ...... This is most definitely dirt! ["Arianna, open wide."] Arianna: Huh? O-Oh, me? O-Okay... ...... Chloe: How is it, Arianna? Arianna: It... It's very grainy... [Dialogue merges here.] Flavio: ...I know you just ate it, but I don't think that's to be eaten. Regina: Hrmmm... I didn't think you'd actually eat it... Arianna: Huh? You mean... it's not supposed to be eaten!? Regina: There weren't any notes on the recipe, so it's probably not harmful... But Siegfried, Arianna. That's just the casing to cook the meat in. Arianna: ......! I-I see... Regina: No, I apologize for not telling you earlier. I didn't think you'd really eat it... ["I want a more sincere apology."] Regina: I-I'm really sorry... ["We ate it..."] Arianna: Yes... We ate it... Regina: ...I'm, well, um... really sorry. [Dialogue merges here.] Chloe: How do you really eat it? Regina: O-Oh, you break open the clay with a wooden hammer. See? The meat comes out. Flavio: Ooh... It's piping hot! Bertrand: You can really smell the herbs. Are they soaked into the entire thing? Chloe: Regina, cut it. Give me a bunch of the leg meat. [If Fafnir ate it.] Regina: Er, I think the best part... should go to Siegfried. I mean, he needs to refresh his palette, don't you think? Chloe: ...You're right. I guess it can't be helped. I'll let Siegfried have it this time. Flavio: Do you want some of mine, too? [If Arianna ate it.] Regina: No, I'll give the best part to Arianna. ...I hope it'll help cleanse your palette. Arianna: Thank you so much... Chloe: ...I should've ate some, too. Bertrand: You're willing to eat dirt for the sake of meat? [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: I'll add this to the menu, so go ahead and order it again. ...And remember not to eat the clay. ~Prepare~ Regina: Crush the clay casing, and eat the meat inside. I don't think I need to tell you... but you can't eat the clay. ============================================= [D57] Tortoise Takikomi Gohan ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 5 Ingredients: 1x Empty Chassis; 5x Tortoise Meat; 3x Wall Piece Price: 329en Memo (Hint): Simmer protected meat with a flavorful rock in a silver body.

Bertrand: Ooh, this is impressive. I'm pretty sure the enemy had no idea he'd turn out like this. Arianna: Born as a monster, he fought us and ended up as a kettle... Quite a strange fate it is! ["Life is full of surprises."] Arianna: It certainly is. Us meeting and sitting around a kettle was something I never imagined, either. Perhaps one day we, too, will become a kettle like this. Flavio: Er, that's way too surprising! Besides, if we become kettles, that'd be terrible! ["I would like to live that way."] Arianna: As would I. Even if the day comes when I fall, I would like to be someone that keeps on helping... ...I would like to live like that! Flavio: I... would not like to become a kettle. [Dialogue merges here.] Chloe: I want to become a frying pan. Then I could cook lots of meat. Bertrand: Well, I'm glad you've decided your future career. Chloe: Mm-hm. Flavio: C-Career...? How's that a career...? Regina: You can chit-chat, but don't stop eating. I'll give the first to finish plenty of burnt rice. Flavio: Wh-What did you say...!? Chloe: Done! Chloe, number one! Arianna: Th-That was amazingly fast! Regina: Haha, good girl. I'll give you your reward, then. Alright, I'll add this to the menu, so order it again whenever you feel like eating burnt rice. ~Prepare~ Regina: The first to finish gets the burnt rice, on me. Now, eat up. ============================================= [D58] Horse Shabu Shabu ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 5 Ingredients: 4x Fatty Horse; 4x Purified Water; 2x Wall Piece Price: 320en Memo (Hint): Boil pure water with a piece of wall, and swish thinly sliced fatty meat. Memo (Description): The stock burns off the fat, making the meat easy to eat. Effect: Rare Enemy Rate 0 (Rare enemies no longer appear!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Alright, it's done. Now, eat up! Chloe: ...You eat this raw? But this meat is so thin... It'll suck. Bertrand: And what's this pot for? It's a strange shape... and nothing's being stewed. Regina: *chuckle* I'll show you how it works, so keep a close eye on me. Take a slice of meat, swish it in the boiling water, and then... Arianna: Wow... The color changed! Flavio: Ooh... The shape changed, too! And is the fat melting off? Chloe: ...Interesting. I want to try. Me next! ["Go ahead, Chloe."] Chloe: Yep! I'll do it a bunch! Bertrand: Good for you, Chloe. ...Hey, wait. Only do your portion, got it!? Chloe: No problem. I'll eat all of it. ["Oh no, I'm next."] Chloe: No, I'm next. I have the meat jurisdiction. Bertrand: ...The hell is meat jurisdiction? [Dialogue merges here.] Flavio: Hey there, I want to give it a try, too... Arianna: Um, me too... Regina: There's no limit on people. Go ahead. A dish that entertains customers... It seems exactly as the notes on the recipe said. I'll add this to the menu, so order it again if you feel like enjoying this again. I'll be sure to give you extra. ~Prepare~ Regina: A strange, but fun way to eat, eh? Try varying how long you swish the meat; the taste will change too. ============================================= [D59] Sky Chawanmushi ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 5 Ingredients: 2x Sky Egg; 4x Stone Mushroom; 2x Black Breast Price: 301en Memo (Hint): Steam high-altitude eggs with mushrooms and a light meat. Memo (Description): A steamed dish with a perfect combination of jiggly, crunchy, and tender. Effect: Grimoire Quality ? (Grimoires now have a higher chance of having a higher Skill Level!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Alright, it's done. Now, eat up! Flavio: Hmm? It smells good... What is it? Arianna: This is flan, Sir Flavio. It's sweet and delicious. Flavio: Huh? But there's meat in it, and it's hot. Arianna: But looking at the ingredients and the cooking process... it has to be flan! ["This can't be flan."] Flavio: Y-Yeah, right? Flan is cold, sweet, and served with fruits, huh! Arianna: Now that you mention it... But this is Sir Apicius' recipe. It would not be surprising if he made a meat flan! Chloe: Meat flan... Sounds so good... But if it wants to be called that, it needs to be more meaty. As such, Chloe does not recognize this as a meat flan. Bertrand: ...No one's asking for your permission. Regina: Besides, I'm sorry to say that this is not a meat flan, but an eastern dish known as a chawanmushi. ["Yeah, this is flan!"] Arianna: Yes, that's right! Flavio: Er, no. The flan I know is cold and served with cream and fruits, not meat! Arianna: This is steamed, so of course it would be warm. But still, to think meat could become dessert... Sir Apicius is amazing! Chloe: Meat dessert. That sounds like a wonderful thing. Bertrand: Yeah, only for you. I'm getting heartburn just thinking about it... Regina: Uhhh... Sorry to butt in, but that's an eastern dish known as a chawanmushi. [Dialogue merges here.] Arianna: Huh? Is that so!? But it's sweet, right? Regina: Not at all. I haven't used a pinch of sugar. Arianna: I cannot believe it...! Flavio: Er, I find a dessert using meat to be something more unbelievable. Chloe: This is... tasty, but a little disappointing. The road to meat desserts is a steep one. Regina: Hmm, a dessert using meats, huh. I don't recall if Apicius had a recipe like that... At any rate, I'll put this on the menu. It's no meat dessert, though... But order it again anyway. ~Prepare~ Regina: The taste is something only a sky egg could bring you. Isn't it velvety? ============================================= [D60] Gem Nikogori ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 5 Ingredients: 4x Swallow Next; 3x Jewel Skirt Price: 268en Memo (Hint): Stew the meat of a monster with a shiny stone, then add saliva and cool.

(Chance of inflicting ailment/binds with items increased!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Alright, it's done. Now, eat up! Chloe: ...It melts in your mouth. It tastes like meat, even though it's not meat... Flavio: The jellies of meat juices are great, huh? I'm always happy to see them formed in a pot I left around. Chloe: This is the taste of happiness. ...I want to take a bath in this. ["That's a great idea."] Chloe: Right? To become one with food... That HAS to be happiness. Bertrand: Go ahead. Just don't cause anyone else any trouble. I'm sure that Hanna'll knock you to the next Stratum. Chloe: Hrm. So there was the problem of location. Arianna: Well, if the bath is out of the question... How about Dame Regina's giant kettle? Regina: There's no chance I'd lend it to you. ["You probably shouldn't."] Chloe: Huh, why? Flavio: ...Chloe's amazing. She really doesn't get why. Bertrand: Why'd she turn into such a meat freak...? Arianna: But I think the feeling of liking something is a valuable thing! Regina: I believe there's a limit to that though. [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: You may not be able to take a bath in it, but you can still eat it. I'll add it to the menu. ~Prepare~ Regina: I tried paying attention to the texture. ...How is it? Is it fun to eat? ============================================= [D61] Caterpillar Casserole ============================================= Book: Western Food 6 Ingredients: 1x Curled Bug; 1x Meaty Cap; 3x Cauliflower Price: 430en Memo (Hint): Stew a curled monster, buds, and monster caps in a special pot. Memo (Description): The caterpillar is cooked in a saucepan and tastes great with the vegetables. Effect: Retry +1 (The number of retries during a game over has been increased by 1!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: ...... Everyone: ...... Regina: I kind of had a feeling as I was making this... but is the presentation a problem? ["You're finally getting it."] Regina: Well, after all I've made... I finally figured out that fishes of whole monsters-- especially insects-- aren't very popular. Flavio: I'm glad that you've learned, but... Regina, are you really okay handling this? Regina: Hm? The most I thought about it was that it was a big catch... an ingredient worth cooking. Flavio: Cooks are crazy... ["This is out of the question."] Regina: I knew it... It may have been fine during Apicius' time period, but it might not be as well-accepted now. Arianna: A time when whole roasts were normal... That must have been an exciting time. Chloe: I'm interested. Flavio: I've never been more glad to have been born in this era... ["...Actually, I'm okay with it."] Regina: Hm? Is it the size that makes it okay? Flavio: Wait wait wait! Whaddya mean by "actually"!? What makes it actual!? Regina: Hrm, so it does vary from person to person. [Dialogue merges here.] Bertrand: So, what're we gonna do? Eat it? ["Let's eat."/"We have no choice but to eat."/"...Let's eat."] Arianna: If you are resolved, Sir Siegfried... Th-Then... so am I! Flavio: Huh, wai-- Really!? I-I... can't even... Chloe: I'll eat, too. Bertrand: Then, I guess I'll go along. Flavio: Y-You're all eating it...!? Th-Then... M-Me, too! You all bite the bullet and challenge the food sticking out of the dish...! ...It is a long and heavy battle. It is flavored, but for some reason you cannot taste anything... Flavio: U-Ugh... It's still not over yet... The legs are still there... Bertrand: This old man's a bit full... Arianna: U-Um... Do we have to eat this face here...? Chloe: Empty your mind... You impressively clean the plate! You are filled with a sense of accomplishment, similar to when you defeat a powerful foe. Regina: If it was that hard, you didn't have to force yourself to eat it all... But, good work. I'll add it to the menu, so order it again if you feel like another challenge. ~Prepare~ Regina: Cooking something so big gives me a sense of accomplishment... Take your time and enjoy it. ============================================= [D62] Orange-Sauce Kaiju Steak ============================================= Book: Western Food 6 Ingredients: 5x Kaiju Round Tip; 1x Orange; 1x Forbidden Yuzu Price: 441en Memo (Hint): Broil a thick-cut lean meat, and top with a sauce using sweet- and-sour fruits.

Could you try eating it now? Arianna: My... Purple meat and orange sauce make it quite vivid! ["Yeah, they're complementary colors!"] Arianna: Yes, they do make each other stand out. It is a nice combination. Flavio: Y-You think...? ["Looks poisonous..."] Arianna: Do you think so? Purple is a beautiful color; does it not make you hungry? Flavio: ...You really love purple, don't you, Arianna? [Dialogue merges here.] Chloe: But why is the meat purple? When we brought it, it was a normal color. Regina: This changes color when you cook it. If you mess up the temperature, the entire thing'll turn purple. It's pretty difficult. Arianna: The entire thing will be purple...? That sounds delicious, too! Regina: Hrm, you may be right. I think that this temperature is best for steaks, since any more would change the flavor... But it may make for some interesting color combinations for stews and such when combined with vegetables. Bertrand: ...Well, that sounds like it'll turn out to be quite a unique stew. ["You should try everything."] Regina: Hrm... Then, I'll give it a go! ["I'll pass on the taste test."] Regina: Hrm... You telling me that makes me want to feed it to you even more. [Dialogue merges here.] Arianna: Not an Apicius recipe, but a Dame Regina original. Regina: *chuckle* A recipe with my name, huh? It'll be a long road... but I like the ring to it. Alright, I'll add this to the menu, so order it again whenever you feel like it. ~Prepare~ Regina: Enjoy the colors of something only the forest can give you.

Memo (Description): Take a bit of the leaf-wrapped dish and the flavor bursts out. Effect: Attacks Recover HP (When using a normal attack, the attacker will recover HP according to the damage dealt!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Alright, it's done. Could you try eating it now? Chloe: Sarmale? ...Not cabbage rolls? Regina: You can think of it as a type of cabbage roll. I'm using pickled leaves to wrap the meat. I also added rice inside, so it might last longer in the stomach than a normal cabbage roll. Flavio: Rice...!? Hmm, that sounds interesting. I always thought you only put meat in cabbage rolls! Arianna: Chewy and crispy... *giggle* My mouth is quite enjoying this! Bertrand: Man... Normal dishes like this sure are relaxing. ["Considering what our usual is..."] Bertrand: Yeah, Apicius' recipes are full of crazy stuff. Regina: That's Apicius' characteristic, so I can't do anything even if you complain to me. Besides, most of the customers enjoy the novelty of his dishes. Bertrand: That's something I don't get... Er, the actual taste is great, but... Flavio: Yeah, huh? It's great... but crazy sometimes. Regina: I got it, I got it. This dish is on the menu, so order it whenever you need a break from the other dishes. I'll be waiting with the same flavor as always. That is my job. ["You need spice sometimes."] Bertrand: When you become like me, you want to just relax. You'll understand eventually. Regina: Siegfried... becoming like you? I can't imagine that. Arianna: A Sir Bertrand-like Sir Siegfried... *giggle* That sounds interesting! Chloe: We don't need any more bothersome people. Bertrand: Hey, whaddya all mean by that!? Regina: It's exactly as it sounds. Now, enough with the gibberish. I'll add this to the menu, so order it whenever you feel like it. Bertrand: Talk about me was gibberish...? ~Prepare~ Regina: It's a type of cabbage roll, but it tastes different from what you know, right?

Effect: Damage Recovers TP (During battle, you will recover TP according to the damage taken!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Here you go: pumpkin pie. Could you give it a taste now? Flavio: It's pretty blue... Chloe: I've never seen such a bluer food. Arianna: Me neither. If you add a little more red, it would be a beautiful purple... But this is delicious as-is! Bertrand: Kid, you eat without hesitation. ...Well, the monster WAS a pumpkin, so I guess everything's okay? ["Indeed."] Bertrand: Yeah. A pumpkin is a pumpkin. Flavio: Eating monsters is an everyday occurrence for us now, huh...? ["But it was a monster."] Bertrand: Ohhh... Normally, that would be true, but don't you think it's a bit late to say that? Chloe: This restaurant's food is pretty much all monster-made. Regina: Hey, at least say it's forest-native. [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: If you want to eat something sweet, you're free to order it anytime. I'll be waiting. ~Prepare~ Regina: The sap is extremely sweet, but it's not persistent.

Could you try drinking it? Arianna: ...... Chloe: ...... Regina: ...Hm? What's wrong? I thought that Arianna would like this drink... Flavio: W-Well, there's no complaints about the dish, it's just this scent... Regina: Scent? ...It smells fragrant to me. ["It's a trap!"/"Don't let your guard down!"] Regina: Wh-What the!? Bertrand: ...Er, sorry about that. This particular scent puts us on guard. Chloe: This smell makes me sleepy... We can't move... It's very dangerous. Regina: ...I-I see. To me, it's a very flowery smell... but is it THAT dangerous a monster? ...What will you do? If the smell's too traumatic, you don't have to drink it. Arianna: B-But... it's Dame Regina's cooking. We should drink it! ["You're right."] You tell yourselves that the perilous past and the tea in front of you are two different things and pick up the glass. ...The sweet smell relaxes you, beckoning you to slumber. ...At this rate, you're going... to fall... ...asleep... ["Good night."] Unable to resist the soft scent, you let your consciousness go. Flavio's voice: You fool! Don't sleep! You'll die! (*Smack!*) Flavio: Th-Thank goodness... You're awake, right? ["Thanks."] Flavio: It's nothing. I can't just let my buddy put himself in danger. ["What are you doing?"] Flavio: Whaddya mean by that!? If you sleep here, you'll be in danger! [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: Er, I don't think there's anything dangerous here in the restaurant... Flavio: Huh? ...Now that you mean it, yeah... S-Sorry, Siegfried. Regina: But still, it is a bit dangerous to nod off due to the scent. ["We can't sleep!"] ...This isn't good! You open your eyes with firm resolution! Arianna: Zzz... Chloe: Zzzzzz... Regina: ...Oh, you're awake. I was wondering what happened. You nodded off due to the sweet scent... That IS a bit dangerous. ["Exactly. Go ahead!"] Arianna: Yes! ...Huh? Um... Am I the only one to drink it!? Bertrand: Wow, that's something I can't do. You're amazing, Arianna. Chloe: Good luck, Arianna. Flavio: You guys are all mean... Bertrand: Oh? Then you drink it with her. I'll sit back and watch. Chloe: Yes. Keep watch. Flavio: Ugh... F-Fine then... Here I go! Arianna: And I, as well! Bertrand: Now then, how's the taste? Arianna: ...... (*Thud!*) Regina: Arianna? Flavio!? A-Are you two okay!? Arianna's soft breath: Zzzzzz... Flavio's snoring: Zzzzzz... Chloe: ...Don't worry. They're both just sleeping. Bertrand: The smell is so good it put them to sleep. Isn't that a bit dangerous? [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: ...I'll serve this with something to waken the customers. And I'll put a warning on the menu... You guys be careful too whenever you order it again, okay? ~Prepare~ Regina: The scent is so soothing, many customers just fall asleep...

["This size is perfect."] Bertrand: That's right. There's a perfect size for everything. If it's big, it'll be hard to eat, and you'd get full in the middle of eating it. Chloe: I wouldn't. Arianna: *giggle* It's true that we wouldn't have to worry about Dame Chloe becoming full. Flavio: You really do eat a lot... Do you want my portion, too? Chloe: I do! Regina: Glad you like it. I'll add it to the menu, so order it whenever you like. ["Let's make it bigger."] Flavio: Oh, that'd be nice. You can't go wrong with that! Chloe: Well, first... I'd like it as big as Flavio's head. Regina: A person's head, huh? ...Do I even have a steamer that size? No, but before that, I'd need to rethink the skin's composition. Arianna: ...It wouldn't be as easy as simply making everything bigger? Regina: Well, maybe if I didn't think about it, but you'd want it as delicious as possible, right? Bertrand: The pride of a professional, eh? Regina: It'll take some time to make a giant shumai... but I'll add this to the menu. Order it whenever you feel like it. I'll be waiting. ~Prepare~ Regina: They may be small, but they're packed inside.

["How considerate of you."] Regina: We've worked together this long. I can tell how you guys like to eat. Chloe: ...I can feel Regina's love. Regina: H-Hey, don't say it like that. ["I love you, too."] Regina: Wha...!? Flavio: Oh, me too! I like Regina, too! Regina: Sh-Shut up! You guys are making such a big fuss over a bowl of rice! ["Dame Regina, thank you!"] Regina: Wh-What are you saying!? I said don't call me that! Flavio: No, I understand Siegfried's feelings. Regina alone isn't enough. That's right, Dame Regina! Regina: I have no idea what that's supposed to mean! [Dialogue merges here.] Arianna: *giggle* You are all really such good friends. ...Oh, Dame Regina, Dame Regina. I love you, too.

I'll take a large helping! Regina: Yeah, yeah, I know. You just sit and wait. Chloe: Okay! Arianna: *giggle* It's like Dame Regina is a mother, hm? ["You're right..."] Regina: No one's ever told me that before. I doubt there's a mother this rough. Chloe: But you did just seem like my mom. Mom also said the same thing when I asked for seconds. Regina: ...I-Is that so? Flavio: Hmmm... That's kinda touching. ["Can I call you Mama?"] Regina: Of course not! Flavio: Th-Then... Mother? Regina: Who was talking about the way you call me it!?

And the saltiness that follows is so well-balanced... Ohhh, and yet it disappears so fast from my mouth...! Flavio: Man... I want to keep this in my mouth forever...

Before you realize it, the giant hermit has disappeared! Flavio: Phew... The presentation has impact, but more than that, the taste was great...! Chloe: My heart was pounding when the head came off. However, it was pounding more at the taste. It's so good, even though it's not meat. I want to give this Chloe's Honorable Meat Award. Arianna: *giggle* A blue-ribbon winner! Bertrand: Is that even praising it? ...Well, I guess it is in Chloe's eyes. Regina: I'll take that aware and add this dish to the menu.

But with this "boom", I can drink it! Regina: Hrm, I know you're giving me opinions on the flavor... But I have no idea what exactly that's supposed to mean. Bertrand: Don't worry, kid. I don't get it, either. Chloe: ...No clue either. How are they having a conversation with onomatopoeia? Arianna: Do you think so? I think I can understand them. These kinds of refined soups are usually a bit "floofy", but... this one is "boom"! Correct? ["What are you talking about?"] Flavio: Huh? You don't get it...? Why not? I mean, it's "boom"! Chloe: I don't get it either. You're just repeating onomatopoeia. Arianna: Do you think so? I think I can understand them. These kinds of refined soups are usually a bit "floofy", but... this one is "boom"! Correct? Flavio: Ooh! You get it! That's right, it's "boom"! Regina: Hrm, I know you're giving me opinions on the flavor... But I have no idea what exactly that's supposed to mean. Bertrand: Don't worry, kid. I don't get it, either. [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: "Floofy"... and "boom", huh? I-I see... Hrmmmm... Well, I'll take it to heart. I'll add it to the menu, so give me your opinion again. ~Prepare~ Regina: Rich for its refined looks... The customers are liking this gap; how about you? ============================================= [D71] Sumo Chanko Pot ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 6 Ingredients: 5x Kaiju Round Tip; 2x Cabbage; 1x Autumn Onion Price: 440en Memo (Hint): Add lean meat, wrapped leaves, and a long vegetable into boiling water. Memo (Description): A warming pot with well-stewed ingredients that bring out each other's flavors. Effect: Grimoire Skill Level +2 (Equipped Grimoires' Skill Levels are now counted as two levels higher!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Here you go. Sumo chanko pot. Go ahead and try it. Chloe: Full of meat. Thick slices. Me happy. Flavio: Hmm, it's a big pot, but it's been well-stewed, so it's easy to eat! ...But what's a sumo? Bertrand: Ah, that's a warrior of the east. Something like the ronin. Regina: Exactly. This dish was developed to help them retain their powerful bodies. In other words, this is the secret to their strength. Arianna: I see. So warriors of the east are also chefs? ...I wonder if the ronin also have some traditional dish? ["Maybe."] Arianna: ...What kind of dishes do they learn? I would like to ask them about that! Bertrand: Well... I have a couple of acquaintances, but I haven't heard anything from them. Flavio: ...Maybe it's a secret. This pot was a secret too, right? Regina said it herself: the secret of their strength. Chloe: So the Mr. Ronin may be keeping their cooking a secret? Arianna: Then perhaps it is not something to simply ask on a whim... It is dangerous to recklessly reveal the secret of your strength, after all. Regina: But still, that shows how much Apicius was trusted by the sumo that told him this. ...He was truly a great man. ["Probably not."] Arianna: ...Do you think? That's a bit unfortunate. Regina: I thought the same as well and asked several ronin, but turned up empty-handed. According to them, sumo is a job where having bigger bodies is beneficial. That is why they have secrets in eating. Flavio: The better the better? I wonder what kind of job it is. Arianna: Are they incredibly tall? Then this dish was prepare to increase their height...? Bertrand: Heh, if that's true, then Chloe needs to eat a whole lot, huh? Chloe: Shut up, Trand. Chloe's not small. This is my perfect size. ["It may not just be ronin."] Arianna: ...Does everybody know of a secret dish!? Wh-What should I do...? I do not know of any sovereign cooking... Flavio: I don't know any survivalist secret dishes either...! Chloe: ...Now that I think of it, Trand made a protector grill when we were traveling together. Bertrand: Ah, that was a mess. I tried cooking meat on my shield, but it burnt and the maintenance oil made it smell... Regina: ...That's just a failure. [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: Hm? The entire pot has been emptied out while we were talking... I'm glad you took a liking to it. I'll add it to the menu, so order it again. I'll be waiting. ~Prepare~ Regina: It's the secret behind the strength of eastern warriors... or so I hear. You should eat up, too. ============================================= [D72] Eastern Nishime ============================================= Book: Japanese Food 6 Ingredients: 1x Meaty Cap; 1x Sap Belly; 1x Blue Pumpkin Price: 450en Memo (Hint): Stew blue fruits with monster caps in a honey stock until evaporated. Memo (Description): Stewed for a long time, the sap really brings out the flavor. Effect: Preemptive on FOE (When encountering FOEs, you will almost always get a preemptive attack!) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Here you go. Eastern nishime. Go ahead and try it. Flavio: Whoa, what's this!? The vegetables are shaped like flowers... They're like toys. Arianna: They're so cute and delicious! *giggle* I'm at a loss what to eat next. Regina: Yeah, I thought this recipe was for you, Arianna. Conversely, I thought Chloe would hate it. Not hungry, Chloe? Chloe: But... there's no meat. Bertrand: I figured you'd say that. It's such an elaborate dish, too... What a waste. Flavio: Huh? It's definitely good, but... isn't it just stewed vegetables? Bertrand: Stew all these types of vegetables together, and you wouldn't get a taste like this. I think the seasoning and stewing process is different for each vegetable. Arianna: Oh... So that's why each vegetable has such a definitive flavor. I was wondering how they were prepared. Regina: ...... Bertrand: Huh? What's wrong, kid? Standing around like that. Regina: S-Sorry, I was surprised. I never imagined hearing something so normal from you... Bertrand: What!? ["That's your fault."] Bertrand: ...Do I act THAT bad usually? Chloe: Usually, yes. Bertrand: ...... ["Regina, that's harsh."] Regina: S-Sorry... It was so unexpected, I accidentally spoke my mind... Bertrand: You like to lay it on, kid... [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: At any rate, I'll add this to the menu, so order it anytime. And, um... Bertrand, sorry about that. ~Prepare~ Regina: Simple, but deep. I hope you enjoy the profound taste of each vegetable. ============================================= [DEX1] Yggdrasil-Bud Tea ============================================= Book: Tea Brewing 1 (Special Menu) Ingredients: 1x Soft Bud Price: N/A Memo (Hint): Boil a rare Yggdrasil bud to obtain its extract. Memo (Description): Just a little sweet, this tea has mysterious powers. Effect: Materials + Gather ??? (Material drop rate greatly increased, and get rare materials when gathering! Effective until you return to town.) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: It's done. This is Yggdrasil-bud tea! Bertrand: Ooh... this is a good tea. The color is clear, and above all the scent is excellent. Arianna: Yes, you're right... It has a hint of sweetness. Did you add some sugar? Regina: No, I didn't add anything. This is the natural flavor of the bud. Flavio: Hmmm... It's sweet just making the tea, huh? That's amazing. Chloe: I don't like tea that much, but I like this. I want to keep smelling it. Regina: Haha, this is what I'd expect from Apicius' recipe. Enjoy the scent. ~Prepare~ Regina: Lightly sweet, a refreshing scent... Just making it makes me happy. It's a taste you can only get from a bud. ============================================= [DEX2] Yggdrasil-Sprout Tea ============================================= Book: Tea Brewing 2 (Special Menu) Ingredients: 1x Delicate Sprout Price: N/A Memo (Hint): Boil a rare Yggdrasil sprout to obtain its extract. Memo (Description): Very sweet, this tea has mysterious powers. Effect: Premium Chance ?? (The chance of a Premium Grimoire Chance occurring has increased greatly! Effective until you return to town.) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: It's done. This is Yggdrasil-sprout tea! Arianna: My... The water looks so beautiful; it's like you melted a piece of amber. This is the first time I have ever seen such a beautifully-colored tea. Flavio: Yeah, I don't know anything difficult, but I do know this is pretty! Bertrand: Ah, it is a pretty sight. But, is this really tea? I feel like I'm licking honey. It's sweet as heck. Regina: I didn't boil it like normal tea. I ground it instead, so the flavor of the sprout itself is what you're tasting. Chloe: So, that means... Yggdrasil flavor is very sweet? ...If I bite the trunk, it'll be sweet? ["Let's try it."] Chloe: Yeah. If it's sweet... then we don't have to worry about being hungry while exploring. Regina: Sorry to burst your bubble, but the sweetness exists only when it sprouts. The trunk isn't sweet. Flavio: Huh!? Wait, don't tell me that you've tried to cook it already!? Regina: As a cook born in an Yggdrasil city, of course that's something I would try once. ["It tastes terrible."] Chloe: Huh!? You mean... you've tasted it? Regina: That's a coincidence; I've tried it, too... But it's not something to be eaten. Arianna: A-And... How was the taste? Regina: Like wood. Flavio: I've never eaten wood before, so I wouldn't know how that's supposed to taste like... [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: At any rate, this is the unique flavor of a sprout. Take your time and enjoy it. ~Prepare~ Regina: All I did was grind it, and it's this sweet... You can't underestimate Yggdrasil, even as an ingredient. ============================================= [DEX3] Yggdrasil-Clover Tea ============================================= Book: Tea Brewing 3 (Special Menu) Ingredients: 1x Strong Clover Price: N/A Memo (Hint): Boil a rare Yggdrasil clover to obtain its extract. Memo (Description): Very grassy and bitter, this tea has mysterious powers. Effect: Extra EXP for Guild (All guild members gain extra experience after a battle! Effective until you return to town.) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: It's done. This is Yggdrasil-clover tea! Flavio: Hmm...? This smells a bit like medicine. Is it drinkable? Regina: Yeah. It's... drinkable. [Drink it.] You slowly bring the blue, clear liquid to your mouth. ...... A very grassy and bitter taste hits your tongue...! Flavio: *cough* Wh-What is this!? Regina: Yggdrasil clover. You brought it to me. According to the notes, it's a medicinal drink. Chloe: Medicinal... The taste makes sense. Bertrand: ...Hey, kid. If it's medicine, then tell us ahead of time. We need to be prepared here. Arianna: Ueh... I can feel it spread from my mouth, through my nose, into my eyes... Regina: I figured that being a secret recipe, it'd be best for you to try it without any prior bias. Besides, though it tastes terrible, the notes say the effects are great. Don't you think you should suck it in and drink it all? Flavio: Er, well, yeah... But being this bitter and horrible, my stomach's still stirring... [......] Regina: Don't be so reserved. The smell and taste are horrible, but it is very nutritional. Bertrand: Hey, kid. Did you just quietly mention that the taste is horrible? Regina: Yeah, I did. According to the recipe, this is more like a medicine than a tea. Chloe: Medicine... It does smell like it. ...But this smells worse than any other medicine I've had. Arianna: B-But it's good for the body, yes...? It's a rare drink, so it should be worth drinking it... Flavio: ...This'll take some courage. [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: Good medicine tastes bitter. ...It's the tough part about being an explorer. ~Prepare~ Regina: It tastes horrible, but the recipe says the results are worth it. Good medicine sure does taste bitter. ============================================= [DEX4] Court Haute Cuisine ============================================= Book: Japanese Cuisine (Special Menu) Ingredients: 7x Thunder Chirp Price: N/A Memo (Hint): An ultimate dish using a thunder chirp, dropped from a storm emperor. Memo (Description): A traditional course served at the palace, but arranged for the commoner. Effect: Force Gauge May Return (When broken, there is a chance the Force gauge will return after battle! Effective until you return to town.) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Here it is: court haute cuisine! Arianna: This is... incredible! The dragon is all bread! This is bread, right!? Flavio: Alright, let's start cutting! Should I start from the tail? ["Give me the tail."] Flavio: Ooh, like the edges? Then the tail is yours, Siegfried. Chloe: Then I take the head. It looks crunchy and tasty. ["Give me the middle."] Flavio: Okay, then. I'll take the tail. Ooh, the end is crispy, but the center is fluffy! Arianna: This is cooked superbly! ["Give me the head."] Flavio: The head!? You're starting from there!? Chloe: No, Chloe gets the head. It looks crunchy and tasty. Arianna: This is a pickle... With it being this big, why don't we split it into two pieces? Flavio: S-Split this even more...!? [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: *chuckle* I'm glad you're enjoying it. So... how is the dragon? Does it look like the real deal? ["Exactly!"] Regina: *chuckle* Not bad for second-hand knowledge, huh? But still, in order to increase the degree of completion, I would like to see the real thing for myself... ["A little different."] Regina: Hrm... I suppose that's the limit of creating from second-hand knowledge. I would like to see it for myself... [Dialogue merges here.] Flavio: Whoa whoa whoa, it's really dangerous. I mean, way past dangerous. Like, seriously dangerous! Regina: Hrrmmm... You're right. I can only wield kitchen knives and pots, so it'd be reckless to explore the forest, huh? Chloe: Weapon: Pot. That sounds strong. Bertrand: It does, huh? She's pretty strong, so maybe she can actually do it. ["Regina's a chef."] Bertrand: It's true she's skilled at what she does. It'd be a waste for her to change careers now. Regina: ...I see. You think that highly of me, huh? Flavio: Plus, it really is dangerous. Regina's a girl, after all. Chloe: ...? Flavio, what does that even mean? Chloe and Arianna are both girls. Flavio: Huh? Oh, now that you mention it... you're right. Arianna: *giggle* Sir Flavio is quite forgetful, forgetting our gender. Flavio: Y-Yeah, leave it at that, please! That's me. Forgetful Flavio! Bertrand: ...You lucked out, Flavio. ["Want to join Chevalier?"] Arianna: You're right. Cooking is a battle with your stamina! Plus it would be fun to have Dame Regina explore with us! Regina: H-Hold on there. You're one of this town's top guilds! Welcoming an amateur would be-- Plus I would have to talk with Grandfather... No, but-- ...... R-Right now, I can't. Chloe: Right now? So you're fine with it someday? [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: ...It's tempting to go on an adventure with you, but before that, I've been entrusted with this restaurant. Right now, my main job is to cook up good food for you as you go exploring. Arianna: ...You're right. We also enjoy coming here to eat. Regina: Yeah, I will continue to strive to make you useful dishes. Now then, I've added this to the menu, so order this whenever you like. For you, I'll cook my best. ~Prepare~ Regina: This is Apicius' greatest work... and a dish I was able to make thanks to you.

Memo (Description): An eastern dish that combines many dishes into one. Effect: Encounter Rate 0 (Encounter rate has been reduced to 0%! Effective until you return to town.) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Here it is: traditional osechi! Chloe: Oooooh... Flavio: Wow, a dragon made of vegetables...! ["That's what I expect from you."] Regina: *chuckle* Thank you. I've been waiting for that line. It took a while to make this, but I wanted to see the surprise on your faces. Arianna: Yes, we were truly... surprised! ["I have nothing more to teach."] Regina: Haha, what are you saying? Arianna: She's right, Sir Siegfried. You have never taught Dame Regina once how to cook. Regina: ...Actually, that may not be true. It may be true I've never learned cooking techniques from you, but I've learned something more important. Arianna: Dame Regina... [Dialogue merges here.] Bertrand: But still... Eastern households sure make some amazing things. It's pretty luxurious to have this decorated dragon. Regina: Yeah, it's a once-a-year celebration. Each household has its flavor. I'd like to check the country out for myself one day. I've made many eastern dishes here, but that's all from books... Chloe: Huh!? ...Regina, are you leaving? ["It'll be a bit lonely."] Chloe: You even have your own restaurant, too... Regina: ...What are you saying? You're all from different countries; you're not going to stay here forever, right? But... it makes me happy to hear you say that. ["Want us to come along?"] Chloe: That's a good idea. Regina: Hey, don't turn this into a big deal. You have your own places you need to go to, right? Plus, Siegfried has to return to Midgard... [Dialogue merges here.] Regina: Well, that's still off in the future. I'll probably need Grandfather's permission, anyway. Flavio: The Minister's permission, huh? He's really attached to you, so convincing him may be a feat... Arianna: Hmmm... He might even cry. Regina: ...Don't say things that'll make my resolution waver. I, uh... have a soft spot when he cries. Bertrand: Hey, kid. Tell me when you do go talk with the Minister. I'll go watch. ["I want to watch, too."] Bertrand: Yeah, sounds fun doesn't it? Chloe: Trand, Siegfried, both of you have poor taste. You should let them cry by themselves. ["That's in poor taste."] Bertrand: What, and be a Goody Two-shoes? It'll be a blast. Chloe: You have poor taste, Trand. You should let them cry by themselves. [Dialogue merges here.] Flavio: That's right. It's an important parting for the two; you should let them cry together. Regina: Hey, you guys. Why are you determining that I would cry too? Arianna: Huh? Dame Regina, you wouldn't cry? Regina: Er, well... Ugh, I said that's in the future! Enough with the suspicion of whether or not I'd cry! Anyway, I added this to the menu, so order it at any time. I'll work hard to make it for you. ~Prepare~ Regina: They eat this to celebrate the New Year in the east. I'm shocked they make all this at home. I'd like to visit one day. ============================================= [DEX6] Imperial Manhan Quanxi ============================================= Book: Western Cuisine (Special Menu) Ingredients: 7x Dragon Tail Price: N/A Memo (Hint): An ultimate dish using a dragon tail, dropped from a great dragon. Memo (Description): A dish that replicates a grand imperial meal long ago. Effect: Prevents Annihilation (If annihilated in battle, you will be revived once! Effective until you return to town.) --- ~Story Conversation~ Regina: Here it is: Imperial manhan quanxi! Flavio: Whoa, this is amazing! Huh? This dragon is edible!? Regina: Yeah, the horns and wings are candy, but the actual insides are pretty much dragon meat. Chloe: Ooooh...! All meat. Everyone, meat... This is the ultimate. Arianna: Yes, I agree! It was difficult to defeat it, but seeing it like this, it is plump and quite adorable, is it not? ["Its attacks weren't adorable."] Arianna: Oh, you are right... Bertrand: Definitely not something I want to remember... Chloe: But it won't counterattack any more. Meat is good. ["It does look adorable."] Arianna: Right!? We won't have to be so scared the next time we meet it! Bertrand: I'd rather not have to meet it at all... ["It looks delicious..."] Arianna: U-Um, that's not what I meant... But the round thighs do look juicy... Chloe: Chloe thinks the tail gets a high score. Bertrand: Young'uns are true to their stomachs, eh? [Dialogue merges here.] Flavio: Man... They're really all so good. I don't know what to eat next! Chloe: That answer is simple. Eat it all. Regina: Yeah, eat as much as you want. That's why I made all of this. Arianna: This is worthy of being called the ultimate dish. But... wasn't this a task to prepare so much food? Regina: It was a bit tiring... But I wanted to answer to you for brining me such great ingredients. ["I'm glad we worked hard!"] Regina: Hahaha! That's the face I wanted to see! Not only do you bring me ingredients, but you eat my food so deliciously; that's what keeps me going strong. ...Seeing that face makes me reaffirm that it's thanks to you that I made it this far. ["You don't need to worry about it."] Regina: It's just me acting on my own. It was thanks to you that I was able to focus so much on cooking. It's my little show of gratitude. Bertrand: Er, this amount of food... That's definitely past "little". Regina: Do you think? I feel this isn't enough... at least, thinking of you guys. [Dialogue merges here.] Arianna: Dame Regina... Regina: Now, eat to your heart's content. Filling your bellies is my reward. If you want to fill up, order this dish any time. For you, I'll cook my best. ~Prepare~ Regina: ...I didn't think I'd be making this again. I really, really thank you for gathering such rare ingredients. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- E.
