In I Am Setsuna, there are food items that you can acquire that will give you temporary buffs that only last for a single battle, making them great for boss fights. In order to get these, though, you will need to find ingredients scattered around the game’s world (see Shiny Spots section). Once you have gather the necessary ingredients, you need to find a specific NPC that will offer to make you that food item. The NPC will give you a free sample, as well as a recipe for that food item.
You receive recipes from NPCs upon giving them ingredients (left), allowing you to buy that particular food from the Chef (right).
With the recipe in hand, you can talk to any of the Chef NPCs in the various towns to hand it over. Doing such a thing will allow you to purchase that particular food from the Chef whenever you want. Every single food item in the game, when eaten, will increase the EXP you receive, as well as netting you more drops from enemies. However, there is a third benefit to each food item, which is unique to that particular one, such as increased physical attack or evasion rate.
