How to complete Zenkichi’s cooking request
Zenkichi can be found outside a souvenir shop in Osaka’s Shinsekai area. First, you’ll need to go to him and talk. This is when you’ll hear all about his terrible cooking abilities. It’s hard to hear - no wonder his daughter hates him. Better teach Zenkichi how to cook then.
Accept the mission
Talk to Haru
Fast-travel to Dotonbori: Shopping St. Haru should be standing just to the right of where you are, next to Ryuji. She’s flattered that you chose her, and suggests teaching Zenkichi Obanzai-style cuisine. Nice and simple, rustic, delicious food. Farm-to-table sort of thing. Makes me hungry just writing about it. Now, you need to goback to your requests menuand accept theObanzai Ingredientsrequest. This requires you to collect the following:
If these aren’t available to buy from Sophia, you might want to check your requests. If you haven’t yet,complete the Elegant Experiment requestfrom Ichinose, as it rewards you with a wider variety of groceries to buy.
When you have all the ingredients, you’ll receive an Obanzai Recipe upon turning in the request.
Talk to Futaba
Next, head over to the area where Zenkichi gave you a mission and have a chat with Futaba. She’ll say how picky she is about yakisoba, which makes her the perfect taste-tester for Zenkichi’s cooking.
She reckons curry and ramen are the delicious treats kids like to eat. Finish the conversation and go back to the requests menu. Accept the mission ‘Forging the Ultimate Menu’, and go back to the campervan
Cook some meals
You’ll now need to cook the following:
Turn in the Forging the Ultimate Menu request, and Futaba will give you an absolute rave review. Now, all you have to do is report the Cooking Papa request, and you’re all done! Congrats, what a great teacher you are.
Your reward isBOND Experience, which you can trade in forBOND skills, obviously.
