To unlock the Unforgettable Soup achievement, you must impress the Governor during the Luau Festival. At this event, you can contribute one ingredient to the potluck soup. If chosen correctly, it will enhance the flavor of the food and please the Governor. If the soup is of the highest possible quality, he will exclaim, “Oh my... That's the best soup I've ever tasted.”

The criteria for delighting the Governor include the quality, price, and effect of ingredients. To impress him, use an Iridium-quality edible with a high selling price and a strong healing effect. This ensures the creation of a delightful soup that everyone, including the Governor, will enjoy.

The Luau Festival takes place every Summer (on the 11th day). To attend the event, you need to be at the Beach between 9 AM and 2 PM . The event concludes with the tasting of the potluck soup.
