;(Talk to Xudong)
:Xudong: Hey, Traveler. Nice to see you again.
: Anything that I can help you with?
::Xudong: Remember how I promised you a meal? I'm making preparations for it right now.
: Are you going to treat me to that meal?
::Xudong: Hahaha, that's exactly what I'm prepping for!
:Xudong: We've been collecting fresh ingredients from everywhere to make a great meal.
:Xudong: I've almost got enough ingredients, so I'm trying to figure out how to cook them.
: Where are Julie and Parvaneh?
:Xudong: Well, Parvaneh is out tracking down more ingredients for the "ultimate seasoning" that she wanted to make.
:Xudong: She took Julie outdoors with her on that search... They said they wouldn't go too far from town, though, so don't worry.
:Xudong: However, I do need your help with something. Although I have a lot of fresh ingredients, I don't have... the inspiration I need to make a breakthrough.
:Xudong: Look at these. Seagrass... Sea Ganoderma, and... uh, Sakura Bloom...
:Xudong: They are quite fresh, but I have no idea where to start.
:Xudong: I was going to ask a local chef in Inazuma for advice. But if I did that, I'd end up with the usual Inazuma cuisine. It's nothing new.
:Xudong: So I thought of using Inazuman ingredients like the chefs from Liyue. That way, I might be able to make something new and exciting.
:Xudong: Traveler, could you please go to Liyue and consult Chef Mao of the Wanmin Restaurant for me?
: Leave it to me.
::Xudong: Thanks. I'll be waiting for you here.
: You want that bit of boom shaka-laka, don't you?
::Xudong: Boom shaka-laka? What? Do you mean... a kind of feeling of awe from food?
::Xudong: If you can find a recipe with that feeling, that would be fantastic.
::Xudong: But I don't know anyone who would have such a recipe...
::Xudong: Anyway, please go and consult Chef Mao for me first.
:Xudong: I hope Chef Mao has some good ideas...
;(Plays automatically after above dialogue ends)
:Paimon: Wanmin restaurant... Paimon remembers that name. That's the restaurant Xiangling and her father run, right?
:Paimon: It would be great if we could ask Xiangling for advice. She's really good at cooking.
:Paimon: Who knows, we might even get something that's got that boom shaka-laka!
;(Talk to Chef Mao)
:Chef Mao: Huh? Traveler, what are you doing here? Want me to whip something tasty up again?
: I'm actually here for your advice...
:
:Chef Mao: Xudong went to Inazuma to cook?... He really has quite a bit of determination.
: Do you know him?
:Chef Mao: Sort of. We had a cooking rivalry once, and it was... a stalemate.
:Chef Mao: He said he wanted to travel the world looking for a breakthrough... I never thought he would actually do it.
:Chef Mao: Still, it looks like he's hit a wall...
: Do you know what might help him?
::Chef Mao: I can't guarantee it will work, but I'll try my best.
: Perhaps Xiangling knows how to solve his problem...
::Chef Mao: Xiangling... True, she's always been a very creative cook. Maybe she can figure out a solution.
::Chef Mao: But she's gone to Qingce Village to pick bamboo shoots at the moment, so she isn't here. It'll take a while to find her.
:Chef Mao: Xudong must be waiting anxiously. Let me see if I can solve his problem.
:Chef Mao: Seagrass... Sea Ganoderma... and... Sakura Bloom? These are strange ingredients...
:Chef Mao: If I took the Seagrass and Sea Ganoderma alone, I think I could make a dish... but we'll need some additional things.
:Chef Mao: Traveler, could you please go and find some Jueyun Chili and Fowl for me?
: No problem.
::Chef Mao: Thanks. Bring them to me once you get them.
: Ah, classic ingredients...
::Chef Mao: Hahaha, that's for sure. They are the hardest to mess up too. Bring them to me once you get some.
::Chef Mao: That said, I really don't know how to cook Sakura Blooms... I'm not sure how chefs in Inazuma handle them.
===Normal Version===
;(Talk to Chef Mao)
:Chef Mao: Have you gotten the Jueyun Chili and Fowl?
:;(Give Jueyun Chili ×1 and Fowl ×3)
:Chef Mao: That should be enough. Hold on a moment. I'll see what I can do with these ingredients...
:
:Chef Mao: Done. Still, I feel like it's not all that different from the dishes I usually make...
:Chef Mao: Take this dish back to Xudong. Hopefully, it'll solve his problem...
:;(Obtain Chef Mao's Special Jueyun Chili Chicken)
;(Talk to Xudong with Chef Mao's Special Jueyun Chili Chicken)
:Xudong: Oh, you're back. What did Chef Mao say?
:;(Give Chef Mao's Special Jueyun Chili Chicken)
:Xudong: This dish... let me give it a try...
:Xudong: The taste is great and the combination of the ingredients is also really good. As expected of Chef Mao.
:Xudong: However, I still feel like it's missing a little something...
:Xudong: The boom shaka-laka feeling, I suppose.
:Xudong: I don't know... *sigh* I'll think about it. At least Chef Mao has given me an idea.
:Xudong: Thank you for your help. Please take these.
:Xudong: How on earth am I going to make a truly unique dish...
===Xiangling Version===
;(Talk to Xiangling)
:Xiangling: These bamboo shoots look pretty good. I'll dig some up...
:Xiangling: Huh? It's you. What brings you here? Want me to whip something tasty up again?
: Well, I've got something I need your help with.
: You reacted just like Chef Mao...
::Xiangling: Oh, you went to the restaurant? Hmm. But now that I've had another look, you don't look like you're here for a meal.
::Xiangling: Are you having some culinary problems, then?
::The Traveler tells Xiangling about Xudong...
:Xiangling: Oh. Handling ingredients from Inazuma using techniques from Liyue...
:Xiangling: Hehe. You've come to the right chef! I've heard of an Inazuman technique where you wrap ingredients in flour and fry them.
:Xiangling: It's called tempura and it's served with a special dipping sauce.
:Xiangling: I was particularly interested in the dipping sauce when I tried making tempura.
:Xiangling: I've tried so many ingredients: Whopperflower Nectar, Flaming Flower...
: Is it made with Slime Condensate, by any chance?
:Xiangling: No, no. Slime Condensate isn't appropriate for this dish.
:Xiangling: Still, I prefer adding the powder from Electro Cicin wings to give it a more layered texture.
:Xiangling: Just in case you forget, I'll write it down. Then you can show it to Xudong.
:Xiangling: *sigh* I wish I could go to Inazuma. There must be so many ingredients I haven't used yet.
:;(Obtain Xiangling's Handwritten Notes)
;(Talk to Xudong with Xiangling's Handwritten Notes)
:Xudong: Oh, you're back. What did Chef Mao say?
:;(Give Xiangling's Handwritten Notes)
:Xudong: Xiangling... wrote this? It must have been hard to find her. Thank you for your help.
:Xudong: Let's see... Whopperflower Nectar... Flaming Flower... and Electro Cicin wing powder...
:Xudong: Rather... unexpected, I must say.
:Xudong: I'll look into this... In the meantime, please take these as thanks.
:Xudong: Ahem... I better read these notes and put them away quickly. I can't let Parvaneh find them...
