If you're buying all the food mats needed for the quest and begin to get puzzled about why nobody is selling Durotar Coast Crab, take a minute and look at your minimap. The yellow markers are live little crabs scuttling around on the ground. You need to click them to loot them for your cooking recipe. Hopefully you'll waste less time looking for crabs to buy than I did.

[object=386047] is the book sitting on the cooking table in front of [npc=199383]. As I was standing almost on top of it, I didn't see it right away and thought I had to just go to a vendor and buy some spoons and forks as the first part of the quest. As I walked back to the cooking table I saw it.
If you're like me and have an issue where Durak isn't displaying any quest icons overhead or on mouseover, just click on him after you collect everything. Do not cook the meals before turning it in to Durak or you will have to do it over again.

Description
In here is a recipe for the traditional feast left for the ancestors at the Kosh'harg by the clans. We're going to have to substitute some ingredients that, you know, no longer exist... But it will for the better! We'll bring some Azeroth flair to this traditional dish! I will teach you each piece of the recipe, but it will be up to you to gather the ingredients and actually cook it. Orc traders have come from all over, so you should be able to find everything you need right here in Razor Hill.

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- An Important Heirloom
I can guide you in crafting your offering to the ancestors, but you will need two things: First, you need to know the basics! Arugi here can teach you how to cook if you don't already know. Second, I need my old cookbook.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Worthy Offering
Now that we have everything on the list, you just have to put it all together, right? How hard could it be? Umm... I'm going to let you handle it, though. I'll watch. <Cooking Recipes can be found under Orcish Cuisine in Classic Cooking.>
