Ah, Disney Dreamlight Valley – a land of magic, friendship, and… endless meat? Well, not quite endless, but with Gaston’s meat stall, you’ll be well on your way to culinary mastery. But before you can start whipping up venison stews and poultry potpies, you’ll need to unlock this tasty treasure.
Here’s how to transform Gaston’s hunting lodge into a haven for hungry adventurers:
Friendship First
Before you can even smell the sizzling bacon, you’ll need to be Gaston’s buddy. Befriend him by completing his main story quests, then unlock his level two friendship quest: Center of Attention. This three-part adventure will have you cleaning, building, and cooking your way to a meaty paradise.
Cleaning Up
The first part of the quest involves cleaning and fixing up Gaston’s hunting lodge. This means entering the lodge, fixing his portrait, cleaning the sand, and then redecorating the interior. For the redecoration, you’ll need to enlist the help of Scrooge McDuck, who will send you on a gem hunt for alexandrite, jade, and spinel. You can find these gems in various locations on Eternity Isle:
- Alexandrite:The Wastes and Oasis
- Jade:The Courtyard and Overlook
- Spinel:The Grove and Promenade
Once you have the gems, return to Scrooge McDuck and then Gaston to collect some copper, oasis glass, and tropical wood. Use these materials to repair the hunting lodge and you’ll be one step closer to your meaty prize.
The Freezer of Infinite Meat
The next step is to build the Freezer of Infinite Meat. Gaston will give you a schematic for this handy device, which you can use in your inventory. The schematic will reveal that you need three freezer fragments, which you can find in the following locations:
- Lower Grasslands:In between the Goofy Stall and Promenade biome bridge.
- Upper Grasslands:Near a wooden bridge connecting the Grasslands to the Grove.
- Grove:Near Rapunzel’s tower.
Once you have all three fragments, return to your Timebending table to craft the Freezer of Infinite Meat and then bring it back to Gaston. Now, you’ve officially unlocked the meat stall!
Cooking Up a Feast
If you want to complete the entire “Center of Attention” quest, you’ll need to cook four meat-based dishes for Gaston’s party. Don’t worry, you don’t need to follow any specific recipes, as long as the dishes are two stars or above and have at least one meat ingredient. Here are a few ideas to get you started:
- Ajiaco:Poultry, Corn, Potato
- Club Sandwich:Pork, Poultry, Wheat, Tomato
- Dumplings:Any Meat, Wheat, Any Vegetable, Soya
- Good Ol’ Fashioned Burger:Venison, Wheat, Lettuce
With your four dishes in hand, head back to Gaston and chat with the party guests to complete the quest.
With the “Center of Attention” quest complete, you’ll not only have gained some valuable friendship points with Gaston, but you’ll also have permanent access to his meat stall. Now you can stock up on pork, poultry, and venison to your heart’s content and create all sorts of delicious new dishes in Disney Dreamlight Valley.
