PAO PAO Game: All Recipes and How to Unlock Them

PAO PAO has several recipes that you can unlock by increasing your restaurant’s reputation, paying the Informant, and taking part in the weekly Magic Cauldron event. Most recipes come from earning restaurant stars, but a few require specific ingredients or other activities.

Here’s how to unlock every PAO PAO recipe and which dishes you can get at each restaurant level.

How to Unlock New Recipes in PAO PAO

There are three main ways to add recipes to your cookbook.

Increase Your Restaurant Level

Most recipes unlock as you earn stars for your restaurant. Each level rewards you with around 5 to 13 new recipes.

You won’t have access to the full recipe list at the beginning. Several dishes remain locked until you reach Restaurant Level 6.

Pay the Informant

The Informant offers additional recipes in exchange for a fee. Pay him when you get the chance, and he’ll share a new recipe along with a small message.

The two recipes obtained through the Informant are:

• Carp Roll
• Spicy Rice with Catfish

Take Part in the Magic Cauldron Event

The Magic Cauldron is a weekly event that becomes available after unlocking Haze’s Farm, located southeast of town.

The event takes place every Friday and lets you unlock one new recipe each week. You need to add the correct ingredients to the cauldron to discover a dish.

You can find recipe notes in the library if you don’t want to guess the ingredients yourself.
