Recipe for Disaster

Recipe for Disaster (also known as Rfd, R4d and Rd) is the 100th quest released by Jagex, and is composed of 10 subquests. The subquests range in difficulty from easy to very hard. Jagex had wanted it to be a quest where nearly any member can start it, but only the best players will be able to complete the quest.

Subquest 1: Another Cook



 * The Cook is preparing for a party in Lumbridge. He is going to cook using a recipe that was created by his ancestor Franizzard Van Lumbcook a hundred years ago and handed down to him by his forefathers. However, he needs your help gathering the ingredients for the recipe.
 * The Cook tells you that he needs a newt's eye, a Greenman's ale, a rotten tomato, and a Dirty blast.
 * When asked how to make a Dirty blast, he tells you to add ashes to a Fruit blast that you make yourself. (Alternatively, the Fruit blast given by Curator Haig Halen for completing the Digsite Quest will work.)
 * The Cook also gives you 100 coins to buy everything and allows you to keep the change.
 * Buy an Eye of Newt from any Herblore shop or from Betty of Port Sarim.
 * Greenman's ale is sold in Yanille, at the Lighthouse and from Rasolo. It can also be obtained at the GE.
 * A Rotten tomato can be bought at the Duel Arena, at the Yanille pillory, at the Seers' Village pillory, or at the Varrock pillory (select "buy" option). Can also be made in a Compost Bin.
 * Make a Fruit blast. (If you bought ingredients at the Gnome Stronghold's Grand Tree, you can make the blast there. Otherwise, you can make it when you return to the Cook.)(NOTE: You can also get the ingredients for free as well as the items needed for the fruit blast if it is your first time from blurberry in the Tree Gnome Stronghold, however this may take some time but with luck he will choose you to make the fruit blast pretty quick in the process.).
 * Add the ashes to make a Dirty blast.
 * Once you have all four items, give them to the Cook.

Congratulations!

Rewards



 * 1 quest point
 * An invitation to the feast

The Secret Council

 * Enter the doors to the dining room to observe the feast.
 * You will see members of the Lumbridge Secret Council seated at the table:
 * A Mountain dwarf from White Wolf Mountain
 * Osman from Al-Kharid
 * Gypsy Aris from Varrock (Aris is late to the feast and does not arrive till after the player enters the room)
 * General Wartface and General Bentnoze from Goblin Village
 * Pirate Pete from Morytania
 * Phileas, the Lumbridge Sage
 * Evil Dave from Edgeville
 * Skrach Uglogwee from the Feldip Hills
 * Sir Amik Varze from Falador
 * Awowogei from Ape Atoll
 * Duke Horacio

The Council frozen in time



 * A cutscene ensues, where the Duke will get a visit from the Mysterious Old Man and will leave the room to deal with it. Osman will then get taken away by Evil Bob.
 * At this point, you enter the room. A short while later, the Culinaromancer crashes the party and starts to attack everyone at the dining table with magic spells.
 * Luckily, the Gypsy from Varrock (who arrives late to the banquet) enters the room and casts a spell to freeze everyone in time (except you and her). (Although the banquet attendees and the Culinaromancer are frozen, you will be able to enter and exit the dining room at will.) You learn the Culinaromancer was a cook in Lumbridge a hundred years ago.
 * To protect each member of the council from the Culinaromancer's spell, you must feed each of them their favourite food. After you give each member his favourite dish, Gypsy teleports him away to safety and tells you how many more council members are left to protect. The Gypsy and Cook will both be there to help you.
 * You can complete these subquests in any order and start as many of them at a time as you want. Each subquest gives 1 Quest point and opens up further access to the Culinaromancer's Chest. In addition to this, there are additional experience rewarded depending on the subquest.
 * Note: If you happen to close your window during the curscene you will not logoff untill the cutscene is over regardless of the 30 second timeout.

Freeing the Council members
There are nine council members you must save from the Culinaromancer:

Subquest 10: Defeating the Culinaromancer

 * After you have freed all the council members, you will see a cutscene, where Gypsy Aris restarts time by saying "Tempus procedit!" The Culinaromancer will then retreat through the portal. Gypsy says you too must go through the portal to finish him off.
