Just dinged my 30 Northrend recipe achievement and figured that'd get me my chef title - nope - looks like you need all 45 on the list to get it.
One slight problem though...
Well, four slight problems actually - only eleven of the remaining 15 recipes are in the game. O_o
The AWOL recipes appear to be -
Fish Feast
Kungaloosh
Shoveltusk Soup
Succulent Orca Stew
Fish feast mats are all in the game but no sign of the recipe - I've got a 450 skill and caught my 1000 fish achievement all in the xpac (leveling cooking) and I've fished everywhere - if its a caught recipe then its as rare as all heck.
I did the quest and got my stack of Kungaloosh but no recipe.
I have found the meat for Shoveltusk Soup but no recipe and looking around it appears that the quest for the recipe is only available to allies to boot?
I also did the quest that gives a stack of Succulent Orca Stew as a reward but no recipe and I've never seen an orca of any type drop meat either so that one is doubly bugged.
Anyone got any other info on this?
