Tales of Vesperia Definitive Edition: How to Get All Recipes

How to Get All Recipes in Tales of Vesperia Definitive Edition

Tales of Vesperia Definitive Edition makes an already massive game even larger, adding on new cutscenes, party members, minigames, and more. If you’ve played a Tales game before, you’ll be familiar with many of the systems in Vesperia, including the robust cooking system. Here’s how to get all recipes in Tales of Vesperia Definitive Edition. 

There’s a wealth of recipes you can get throughout your adventure in Tales of Vesperia Definitive Edition, and there’s one of two ways to get them. Some are obtained by finding Wonder Chef disguises in different towns, while others you’ll need to cook a certain dish with a specific character.

Keep in mind for the recipes that require you to cook a dish, you’ll need to successfully make the dish and not fail it. You’ll need ingredients for every recipe, so make sure to stock up before you enter a dungeon, or if you’re trying to learn a new dish.
