The Kitchen Storm update has brought five new food-themed pets to Grow a Garden. These pets can be earned by bringing special dishes to the Rat Connoisseur NPC or by opening Culinarian Chests. The key thing to remember is that you need to cook using mutated plants. Here’s everything you need to know about these new cooking pets and how to get them during the Kitchen Storm Update.

How to Get Kitchen Storm Pets in Grow a Garden Roblox?
All Kitchen Storm pets are obtained through the new Rat Connoisseur system:
- Method 1: Some pets can be earned directly by bringing mutated dishes to the Rat Connoisseur NPC. You’ll find this rat standing next to Chris P. Bacon (the pig chef).
- Method 2: Other pets can only be obtained by opening Culinarian Chests, which you can earn from the Rat Connoisseur as rewards.
Important Requirement: You must use mutated plants as ingredients when cooking. The Rat Connoisseur will not accept dishes made from regular, non-mutated plants.

Best Pet Recommendation
If you’re looking for the most useful pet to focus on, the Gorilla Chef is the top choice. This pet helps you get more food when cooking, which means more rewards from the Rat Connoisseur NPC. Since the entire Kitchen Storm event revolves around cooking and trading dishes, having a pet that gives you bonus food makes everything more efficient. Plus, it’s available as a direct reward rather than needing luck with chest openings.
That’s everything you need to know about the new Kitchen Storm pets in Grow a Garden. Start cooking with those mutated ingredients and work toward adding these food-themed companions to your collection!
