Short Order Cook, The

Crafting: Cook Quest

Rollo will give you access to Superior Ovens, but only if he is convinced you have superior cooking skill. He will want you to fill the orders of his friends.

STEPS:

1) Fill the orders of Rollo Hamson's friends. Rollo gives you a note with a list of his friends that "work within five of the Shire's finest inns." He tells you:

"Seek out these friends of mine and prepare whatever meals they ask of you. When all five are satisfied, I will see about granting you permission to use the superior ovens of Michel Delving."

Visiting each of Rollo's friends in their Inns will grant you another quest. Here they are: An Order for Alken Chubb, An Order for Esmerelda Burrows, An Order for Rollo Bunce, An Order for Ruby Hollowbanks, and An Order for Pansy Proudfoot. I would suggest turning in the order for Pansy Proudfoot LAST, since she is the closest NPC to Rollo, and will mean less hoofing-around for you.

If you'd like to be efficient, here is the complete ingredient list for the next five quests:
