Hail to the Chef

Today was the day the vendors received their new recipes, so I ran straight over to get my stuff. Wolf Tartare was easy enough to pick up, but when I looked at Fish Feast, it took 450 cooking - I was still three points short. I thought, "Okay, I'll just go pick up the Kungaloosh recipe and take care of that first." Good idea, except for one tiny little detail: I kinda forgot that I never did any questing out in Sholazar Basin. Now normally this wouldn't have been that big of an issue. I would've just gone in, knocked out whatever quests the people out there wanted me to do, and picked up my recipe. However, there was apparently some strange activity going on in Wintergrasp today that seemed to have effects on everyone else in Northrend. Reports from myself and other members of the team include blackout periods with no memory of what happened, delayed reaction time for some spells, and in my case, learning how to swim through the sky:


Despite all that though, I finished getting the quest and got my recipe. That just left learning how to make a Fish Feast, so off I went to search the rivers of Northrend for the fish needed to finish my cooking training and learn my last recipe. There was a bit of a delay from the guild asking me to schedule Solannis to off-tank their 10-man Obsidian Sanctum run that night. Stupid "only one person can work at a time" contracting rules... Regardless, once that was taken care of and Solannis collected his fee, I went back to my fishing and got my last skill point. A quick trip back to Dalaran for my recipe, and my journey was at an end.


Ah, it feels so nice to finally have that taken care of. There may be dozens of other titles available, but there's just something about Chef that's awesome. Now if only I could find an epic chef hat or a frying pan shield to accompany my shield. Maybe one of those white smock things that the chefs in the fancy parts of Dalaran wear. I don't care if it's not all that great compared to my actual tanking gear - it could be vendor trash quality for all I care. I just think I'd look awesome in a chef hat.
