To do: The Pikmin Wiki page claims the US version has 990 Pokos worth of treasure. Which is it?
Care to do so?

The Glutton's Kitchen (食神の台所^?, lit.: "Cooking God's Kitchen") is one of the easiest caves in the Perplexing Pool. To enter the cave, you will need to have found Yellow Pikmin, and may need to bring plenty of them.

You will probably already have built and cleared a route to the cave, which involved killing several enemies, including Shearwigs, and building a bridge. If applicable, take your yellows, maybe 50 or so, along with several other Pikmin, especially Purple Pikmin. head towards the area where you may see three eggs, there you should easily see an electric gate, and a Yellow Wollywog nearby, it would be useful if you eliminate it and then destroy the gate. Once that is done, proceed on in. A Honeywisp may also be nearby.

In the US version of this cave, there are 1190 Pokos worth of treasures and 825 Pokos worth of treasures in the European version.

Notes

Ship's dialogs

“Interesting! My odor detectors are reacting... A strong scent wafts from that hole!

I am a machine, so rating scents is beyond me, but your faces tell me all I need to know.

You are both drooling... I wish, just once, I could feel what it is like to drool.”

Room with wooden box

There are numerous Dwarf Bulbears here. They should be killed with Purple Pikmin. Inside the large wooden box should be another Bulbear. It too should be defeated by throwing Pikmin over the edge, allowing the player to grab the Master's Instrument. Wooden walls of a house can also be seen when R / Padleftright is held down.

Toy train track room

A toy train track surrounds the Pod. It is possible to walk around on it, although this serves no purpose for the game's objective. There are Breadbugs on this level that will carry away treasure and defeated enemies into their dens. Cloaking Burrow-nits and Sheargrubs may also hinder the Pikmin from collecting the Massive Lid and Imperative Cookie.

Pieces of chiyogami paper are also encountered on the floor. Like the train track, they serve no function other than to add to the scenery.

Large rectangular empty room	Tambourine room	Xylophone room

A xylophone and a small tambourine are the main decorations on this level and also serve as large obstacles. Lots of electrical wires and Anode Beetles will be in the way, so those should taken care of with Yellow Pikmin; if the player lacks these, he or she may use this sublevels Golden Candypop Bud. This color of Candypop cannot be found anywhere else in the game, so maybe it would be a good idea to throw a single Pikmin into it to make the Golden Candypop Bud appear in the Piklopedia.

A Puffy Blowhog also flies around here, and he can be encountered and fought out of bounds. Breadbugs will be stealing treasures and corpses, such as the Harmonic Synthesizer and Director of Destiny, since both lie in the open.

Room with 3 exits	Room with 4 exits

A few Breadbugs and a Spotty Bulbear with its young are present here. It is possible to petrify both the parent and the young Bulbears with one single bitter spray. Another good strategy is to bring just a few Purple Pikmin and find it before it picks up any Dwarf Bulbears, than petrify it and toss away. Treasures available here are the Happiness Emblem, Invigorator and White Goodness.

Room with a dirty plate	Room with colored half-discs

Dwarf Bulbears and Armored Cannon Beetle Larvae which burrow out of dirt piles can be found here. Pikmin must be thrown onto their plates/blocks in order to defeat them. The Sulking Antenna and the Boom Cone are found in this level.

Alternatively, the Cannon Beetles can be used to defeat the Dwarf Bulbears and, with skill, other Cannon Beetles by luring them with a Captain.

A Violet and a Queen Candypop Bud aid the players forces here. The flowers should fall from above in one of the "dead ends".

Chiyogami

Chiyogami paper on the second sublevel.

The second sublevel of this cave features an unique object, exclusive to the cave: a piece of chiyogami paper. It is a brown and slightly crumbled piece of paper with an ocean wave pattern. When walked on top of, it rustles, but other than that, it serves no purpose. This object is special in that it is designed like an enemy, and is only used on this level.
