How to participate in the Spice of the West: Northern Exploration Event
All players who have reached 20 adventurous ranks. However, you must also complete the task “Idle Talk in a Teapot”which is unlocked at adventure rank 28 to cook the right dishes and serve them to companions in the teapot.

If all conditions are met, click “To the Task” and do a little search “Guests from the West: The Taste of Freedom”. To do this, quickly travel to Mondstadt and talk to Sarah and Nazafarin at the Good Hunter Restaurant.

After completing the dialogue, a tutorial will appear, after which you can go to the events menu and take part in the tests. Press the button “Event Description” and select one of the available tasks. Below we tell you more about it.

How to invite Sims to the Teapot of Serenity and treat them to dishes
To increase the friendship experience of individual heroes, you can invite them to the Kettle of Serenity and treat them to fragrant dishes obtained after adding certain seasonings. You make the seasonings themselves as you progress through the mini-games, described below.

First you need to prepare at least 9 seasonings to add them to your dishes. When you are done with this task, open the event menu and click the button on the Event tab “Use Herbs”.

It is important that you have dishes in your inventory that can be improved. For example, only in the initial phase:
- smoked chicken (Smoked Poultry 1, Onion 1, Cabbage 1);
- meat steak (Raw Meat 2);
- Fish skewers (Fish 1, Pepper 1).

Do not forget that many dishes can not only be prepared by yourself, but also purchased in individual establishments of Mondstadt, Li Yue, Inazuma and Sumeru.
Add seasonings to your dishes and continue with the Kettle of Serenity. Place all available satellites here through a special menu and then chat with them.
Select an item “Attempt”to give away a fragrant dish. It’s worth noting that individual characters will react to them differently.
