It is a variant of the base Special Meal that adds Coffee Cherry to the mix, granting an additional Sleep Immunity buff on top of the already powerful Spirit recovery and No Spirit Cost effects.

Ingredient Breakdown
This recipe builds on the base Special Meal by adding 2 Coffee Cherry. The Meat and Fish Skewers and Boiled Meat are themselves cooked dishes, meaning you need to prepare sub-recipes before assembling the full feast. Meat and Fish Skewers require Meat and Vegetable at a Field Grill, while Boiled Meat requires Fine Meat, Vegetables, Milk, Salt, and Water at a Field Pot.

Tips
The 50-second Sleep Immunity is particularly useful against enemies with sleep-inducing attacks. Eat this before engaging bosses with crowd-control abilities.
Feast recipes require settlement-level cooking equipment. You cannot cook this at a Field Grill or Field Pot.
Coffee Cherry can be foraged from plants in forested regions. Stock up when you spot them.
