It took me fourteen years to learn that the Gourmet’s fan actually has a secret dialogue. No matter what your level is or how far you are in the Dark Brotherhood story, you can meet a fan of the Gourmet on the roads of Skyrim. His name is Balbus, and he will happily talk about his hero. Because he can appear at any time in the game, you might not even know about the Gourmet at all…

If only you could equip the fork. You could dual wield it with the one in Windhelm museum
"I've risk life"
Comes back with a deadra hearth
Can you actually make anything useful with those ingredients?
So, hear me out. Poison the Emperor, escape, find this fan, say you’re retiring and he gets to be the next Gourmet, give him your clothes, and then direct him to head to Solitude.
My guy killed a daedra with his fork he is the true hero of skyrim😂😂
Needs more unnecessary edits and zoom ins to be a proper YT short
This is a common quest. What are you talking about?
That's pretty cool!
First time I found him, he was already dead. I had no idea who he was. But found it amusing that he had a named fork.
Brother took down a daedra
A deadra heart?? Balbus is a beast
Ohhh that’s where I got that fork.
He is always dead when i see him.
I founded him died 😢
"Took me 14 years to read a wiki page."
I trapped his soul in a black gem after that and used it to enchant his very own fork (which I killed the emperor with).
Thats where you get Balbus fork, omg ugh
I wish balbus would appear again in TES 6 as the new gourmet or an easter egg from books or something, something for skyrim to have an reoccurring character from the previous title to the new one
I met him during brotherhood mission and thinking he is the part of the quest and he gave me a random alchemy ingredients
I fucking found this fork in the coc quasmoke room and never knew how to fucking get it lol
Yea sadly for me the first time I saw him there was a dragon attack an idk why I’m unlucky with him bud he keeps dying from dragons or bandit attacks or a fucking fire acho and some saber cats or wolfs blud even once died from the darkbrotherhood guild itself and i tried to save him an heal his wounds buuut he was already dead;-; bummer I talk only once an never see the secret one
Aw shoot does this mean he ACTUALLY USE ingredients like that?!
"Every dish"……there's only, like, 2 or 3.
I like to bully this guy with ice shout and calm then fear throw him a few feet then calm and go on my way he never leaves 🎶
Why do you waste 30 seconds in every video pointlessly repeating obvious steps that everyone knows? Stop, just get to the point.
Everytime i hear an npc with max’s voice from goofy movie i feel nostalgic
It should have been the fork of horripilation; with all the adventure it's been though.
Where bro get a daedra heart?
i discovered this just by sheer happenstance, i had killed this poor guy for his daedra heart so many times before that
