The team that was approaching the Phoenix Guild was the Guild of Foodies, which was a small and non-influential guild in the game.
The guild was named this because all its members were gourmets. They were either cooks or people who were highly interested in food.
Essentially speaking, they had nothing to do with the Guild of Cooks, another guild established by players.
The Guild of Cooks aimed to develop daily cuisines in this game world, but the Guild of Foodies were more interested in developing unique recipes, because there were more ferocious beasts and unusual plants here than there were in reality.
So, how did those ferocious beasts taste?
Would they taste differently when they were boiled and when fried?
Did the Astral Plane Wolf taste beefier than the Star Frost Wolf?
How different was a unicorn from a regular magic horse?
Were there special ways to cook the oil of the magic crocodiles and the fire crocodiles?
