One of the side activities in Tears of the Kingdom is the Lucky Clover Gazette quest chain, which spans different quests that you can find at different stables in Hyrule. Here’s our guide on how to complete Gourmets Gone Missing in Tears of the Kingdom, one of the trickier quests from this chain.

How to complete Gourmets Gone Missing in Tears of the Kingdom

After getting the Gourmets Gone Missing quest from Penn and talking to the person looking over the river for Agus and co that are late, the quest truly begins. You now need to find these people, and figure out what’s wrong and why they’re late. Gotter gives you a hint as to where they could be, as he mentions how they cross the Owlan Bridge right next to the Riverside Stable where you’re currently at, and that leaves one place for us to check for them, over that bridge.

The location for actually finding the gourmets that have gone missing is pretty easy, all you need to do is follow the road that goes beyond the bridge. Eventually, you’ll be able to see them on the right-hand side of the road, seemingly exhausted. If you can’t find them, you can see the precise location in the map above. After finding them, they’ll be talking about a recipe that you can see yourself in the book in the center of their camp. The next step is to then cook this recipe, and give it to them.

Cooking the meal

This recipe for the Gourmets Gone Missing quest requires raw meat, Hylian rice, and rock salt. These ingredients shouldn’t be too hard to find, you can get raw meat from most animals in the wild, like deer. Rock salt is something you can acquire by breaking ore deposits, and if you’ve done much exploring into caves there should be some in your inventory already if you’ve broken some. Hylian rice is something you can buy at a lot of stores, such as Beedle’s shop at the Riverside Stable you got this quest from.

Once you assemble all of the ingredients, put one of each into a cooking pot, and then give it to Agus who’s sitting next to the tree. After doing that, the Gourmets Gone Missing quest will be complete!
