To accept Genli’s Home Cooking side quest, head to the Rito Village in the western part of the game world. Go to the western part of the village and approach The Slippery Falcon general store (one of Rito Village’s observation decks). When you reach this location, you will meet a green Rito named Genli and accept Genli’s Home Cooking quest.
If you talk to Ganley, you’ll learn that she loves to cook, but getting some of the ingredients isn’t easy. This time she wants to cook a delicious fish dish, and she’s only missing one ingredient – Staminoka Bass. To complete Genli’s Home Cooking side quest Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, all you have to do is catch a Staminoka Bass and bring it to Genli. But finding this fish is quite problematic.

On the other hand, the Staminoka Bass is a common fish in western and central Hyrule, so you can catch it in almost any body of water. For example, you can go to the Riverside Stable southeast of Hyrule Field. This place has plenty of shallow water and a variety of fish, such as staminoka bass. By the way, you can also complete a side quest called Gourmets Gone Missing in Riverside Stable. So you have at least one more reason to visit this place.
