There are over 200+ recipes to unlock in Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar. That’s a whopping number of recipes.
We’ll show you how to unlock each one in this ultimate cooking guide, including a few tricks to unlock them faster in SoS: Grand Bazaar.
How to Unlock All Food Recipes in Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar – Complete Food Guide
Before getting into all the food recipes, there are some important things to be aware of. First, the only way to unlock a food recipe is to eat food that you haven’t learned or uncover a secret that teaches you the recipe outright, which is only applicable to a few recipes. That means you have to buy the food and eat it. To be efficient, buy food that you haven’t learned yet and use it to recover stamina.
Secondly, some recipes are locked behind requests, events, and relationships, while 80% of the other recipes come from stores. There are also times when you may get a reward from the mailbox after finishing an achievement that gives you food. These food rewards not only unlock the recipe when you eat them, but they should also be available in stores going forward.
Third, if you have unlocked a recipe, you might not see it immediately in the kitchen. This is because you need to unlock the Oven, Frying Pan, and other upgrades from Garon to cook better dishes.

Now for the recipes.
Cafe Madeleine
Cafe Madeleine is the earliest way to unlock some basic recipes. Her offerings start with the most basic foods, but gradually offer more when you upgrade your town’s Bazaar Rank. Cafe Madeleine also offers seasonal teas, so be sure to pick them up when they are in season.
Happy Sprites Bazaar Store
The sprites offer only four specific foods, and all of them give Happy Energy Gain buffs. You only want to buy these and get the buff when the bazaar is up. You get a lot of Happy Energy when selling items in the bazaar, so that’s when it is going to be most useful. You can earn more Happy Energy byearning more goldat the bazaar.
These dishes cost Happy Energy, so you might want to buy the storage upgrades first.
Requests Rewards
These recipes aren’t complete yet.
Most of the key requests come from progressing your relationships with the people in Zephyr Town. After reaching a specific heart level, you’ll notice that your heart or friendship levels will become locked.
You’ll eventually receive a request from them, and some of them will give you a food reward. Most of these are exclusive rewards, so it is important that youbecome friendly with everyone in Zephyr Townif you want to unlock all the recipes.
You’ll also notice that there could be multiple requests from others. Freya made a different request that gave another unique recipe. This could be the case for the other townsfolk, too.
Achievement Rewards
When you get specific achievements, you’ll earn a title. Usually, it’ll notify on the left side of your screen. The next day, you’ll receive an email with a reward for that achievement or title. These are useful items you may use, like seeds, ores, or food. Most of the food is available in stores, but some of them are exclusive.
The Specialty Juice is one of the most valuable items in the game, but it needs a Spring Juice, Summer Juice, Autumn Juice, and Royal Honey to make a single one.
Mini Madeleine
Throughout the story, you’ll eventually get a request from Madeleine where she wants to set up her own stall for the Bazaar. Once you finish the request, she’ll open up the stall and sell more unique dishes, including some exclusive and seasonal juices.
Clara’s Diner
In Zephyr Town, it seems like there are several talented cooks who want to set up their stalls at the bazaar. The next one is Clara’s delicious home cooking. It is surprising that she offers so many unique recipes, including some of thebest food for recovering stamina. There aren’t any seasonal dishes here, so you don’t have to check it every time.
Nadine’s Bistro
Around the same time as unlocking Clara’s Diner, you’ll also receive a request from Nadine so she can set up a bistro at the bazaar. Her selection of recipes is amazing since a lot of them are easy to make, especially if you are regularly tending to your livestock and getting eggs and milk consistently. Like Clara, there aren’t any seasonal recipes here.
Felix’s Fixings
While Felix mainly sells techniques or upgrades to help your farming life, you’ll also get some recipes from him, especially since he is trying to learn how to cook better. He also sells key ingredients if your windmills are too busy and you just need some breadcrumbs, flour, vinegars, and more condiments and seasonings.
Secrets and Rewards
Now that we have almost 90% of the recipes down, there are some that require a bit of work. First, you may go to the houses of the ones listed above and interact with the bookshelves. You’ll get a free recipe as early as the start of the game.
Other recipes are unlockable through special events. For example, people who have a good relationship with you should give you a food gift on Hearth Day. Just give them a good gift suited for Hearth Day, and they should give you another food back. Some of them are offered in the store, but some are unique.
