Chef Guide

The original cooking guides that were created shortly after GW2 launches are long outdated.  All of them require vanilla bean, an object that once was purchasable from vendors for a small amount of karma.  That changed.  Vanilla bean is now quite pricey and not a viable component to use for cheap chef leveling.

Shopping List & Costs

Below is an exact list of what component you will need to purchase, their respective prices and total cost.  You can also view current prices using a live updating google spreadsheet created by a MassMediocrity (somewhat out of date).

In addition to the items below, you will also need to procure an additional 60 Bottles of Simple Dressing.  At the time of this guide, they are almost free on the trading post.  Though it won’t always remain that way.  If the bottles are more than 40cp on the trading post, your best option is to craft the bottles.  For that, you’ll need an additional 60 Piles of Salt and Pepper (made from 60 salt and 60 peppercorn), 60 Jars of Vegetable Oil and 60 Jars of Vinegar.

All of the Karma Vendor items are account bound.
