This is a breakdown of costs and earnings per recipe, as well as per ingredients used.
Still a work in progress. Feedback is loved. There are sections that are out of date, I am still working on it.

Best Dishes: Overview
First and foremost, all numbers and recipes are pulled from the fantastic "Guide to Bancho's Menu" For a more in depth look at the menu please visit this guide
Second, you can see the full insanity here are the xcel sheet, which is incomplete
here/ [docs.google.com]


There are different metrics one can use to see which dishes are the "best" or "most profitable". First is the individual unit price. This is the price per serving.

Second is the total earnings per dish made. This takes the number of servings and multiplies it by the price per serving.

Third is what I am calling "price per ingredient". This takes the total earnings per dish, and divides it by the number of ingredients used to make the dish.

And at the very end I will have a link to the spreadsheet that includes all recipe items so if you want to do the break down yourself you can sort things to your hearts content.

Link to the SpreadSheet and Column Definitions:
Once again, all numbers and recipes are pulled from the fantastic "Guide to Bancho's Menu"


This is a link to the sheets document. [docs.google.com]


Column definitions:
Dish: The name of the recipe.
Price: The price per serving at max level.
Servings: How many servings each recipe makes.
Total Amount of Earnings per Dish: The number of servings * the Price
Total Number of Ingredients How many ingredients in the recipe.
Price per Ingredients Total Amount of Earnings per Dish / ]Total Number of Ingredients

I am still working towards noting which recipes require non farm-able ingredients, harder and easier to acquire ingredients, and the like.

((I am also working on efficiency in terms of ingredients you can combine for the max number of recipes but this is lunacy so I'm putting it off to later but know that I know I have not truly maxed out efficiency. ))

Please feel free to correct anything or make requests. You can comment below or just put a note in the sheet.

Thank you!

This is fairly out of date now, a bunch of new recipes have been added via the DLCs and the collab content.

I don't remember what I was missing now. I think they were mostly Truffle and Hyaloema dishes. Truffle dishes aren't great since they cost 650 to make. Obviously the new dredge dishes aren't here. If I figure it out I'll leave a note. Actually might have been Steamed Hyalonema Angler Fish I was thinking of, it doesn't have ingredients listed. Also Truffle Sailfish Tartare, Truffle Blue Lobster Tail Sushi, Truffle Shark Sandwich don't have their ingredients listed, so maybe this is what I saw. Double check all the dishes have the appropriate ingredients. And if you don't mind, subtract the cost of the truffles from the profits on those.

@P4wn4g3
Would you be able to tell which are missing? I went through manually to check and I didn't see what is missing.
I'll get it fixed.

Spreadsheet needs updated. Some late game recipes are missing.
