Guide:Chef

Template:Guide Chef is one of the first professions you unlock in Hopeport This guide will give you an idea as to the best money making methods within Chef, the most efficient route to level up, and a few more tips and tricks.

Why train Chef

Chef can be an easy way to make reliable money early on, especially if sourcing most of the ingredients yourself. Chef Bounties are almost guaranteed profit, while also netting yourself extra experience for each bounty completed. This can be found in The Delectable Dab Kitchen.

Best profit dishes

Appetizing Vegetable Stew is easily one of the best early dishes to make, requiring 25 Chef. Using only 1 ingredient, Appetizing Mixed Vegetables, it has a high profit margin of 341 Copper per dish if sold to the Head Chef, which means a full inventory of 24 will give you 8184 Copper in profit.

Fishing for your own supplies is highly profitable, albeit lower profit per hour(?). An example is Rocky Jellied Eels, requiring 22 Chef and 16 Fisherman (if catching yourself). Gelatin costs 220 copper and you can sell the dish for 815 copper, netting you a profit of 595 copper if sold to the Head Chef. A full inventory of 24 will give you 14280 Copper in profit. Another example is Common Fried Ray Wings, requiring 50 Chef and 50 Fisherman (if catching yourself). This requires no other ingredients, so we are looking at higher profit margins. They can be sold to the Head Chef for 794 copper each, meaning a full inventory will give you 19056 copper in pure profit. While factoring in the time to obtain the Common Ray, the profit per hour may be less compared to other dishes at a similar level.
