I usually don't venture outside the city borders, but I do need to collect materials to make dinner from time to time in the warm sandscapes. As anyone knows, the best ingredients are near the Kazedlar’s Pit. Though, be aware, there's a small chance of encountering the Burgerman if you stay there for too long… I don't know why, but he seems to really like the place.
If he approaches you, don't accept any of his deals! They are subscription-based, veiled as cheap steals.
Don't pay the burgerman
