In the Grow a Garden Kitchen Storm event, the Rat Connoisseur is one of the most important characters you can interact with. Unlike the cooking portion of the event, the Rat Connoisseur offers a direct path to exclusive rewards in exchange for mutated fruits. This guide covers the entire process, including a full list of his potential rewards and their drop chances.
How to Trade with the Rat Connoisseur
The process is simple but relies on your ability to produce high-quality fruits in your garden. For each mutated fruit you provide, you will get to choose one prize from a selection offered by the Rat.
- Grow Mutated Fruits: First, you must have mutated fruits in your inventory. The higher the quality, the better.
- Offer a Fruit for Review: Approach the Rat Connoisseur and give him one of your mutated fruits. He will perform a “food review.”
- Choose Your Reward: After his review, you will be presented with a selection of items. You get to pick the one you want most, giving you more control over your rewards compared to opening random chests.
For players in a hurry, you can also pay 90 Robux to “Skip the Review.” This automatically gives you a successful outcome and allows you to choose a reward instantly.

How to Get the Best Items
While common rewards are useful, the main reason to visit the Rat Connoisseur is to obtain the exclusive rare and legendary items.
- Target Unique Items: The Gorilla Chef and the Pet Mutation Shard (Aromatic) are two of the best rewards and can only be obtained from this character. The Gorilla Chef has a 5% chance to duplicate cooked food, while the Aromatic shard allows a pet to apply a mutation every 25 minutes.
- Hunt for Rare Seeds: The rarest seeds in the event come from the Rat. Aim for the Bitter Melon Seed (3% chance), Pricklefruit Seed (5% chance), and Butternut Squash Seed (8% chance) to grow valuable new plants.
- Be Persistent: With drop chances as low as 3%, getting the top-tier rewards will take time and many mutated fruits. Keep farming your garden and trading with the Rat to maximize your opportunities.
