How to find it

The entrance is at map coordinates 1642, 1729, near Goronbi River, along the cart tracks from the bistro. Look for the cave mouth at that spot; a Blupee or a ring of light often marks them. Wear Flame Guard armor or drink a Fireproof Elixir.

Inside the cave

Glide over the first lava river

Inside the entrance, a river of lava cuts across the cave. Climb to the ledge on the left and glide over the lava to the dark floor on the far side.

Bridge the lava with the hydrant

A Zonai hydrant lies in the ruins on your right. Pick it up with Ultrahand, set it on the lava and the water it sprays cools the lava into stone slabs. Walk across the slabs to the platform beyond.

Shoot the Bubbulfrog

On the far side the Bubbulfrog hangs above the floor. A fire arrow works well in the dark; when it bursts you collect a Bubbul Gem. Rock Roast sits in this part of the cave for the Meat for Meat quest.

Requirements, enemies and rewards

Meat for MeatBecomes available after you finish the Fire Temple and free the Gorons. Talk to Mezer and Cooke at Bedrock Bistro (the Timawak Shrine is just above it). Mezer owes Cooke Rock Roast, or Marbled Rock Roast depending on how far you are with Yunobo’s questline, so fetch whichever Cooke names
Finding the entranceFollow the mine-cart track beside Bedrock Bistro towards Goron City to the hot spring where an NPC washes; the cave mouth is just beyond, with a cooking pot outside
HeatOne level of Flame Guard is enough. If you lack the armor, talk to the man in the spring for the Fireproof Elixir recipe (a Fireproof Lizard and four monster parts) and brew it in the pot at the cave mouth
Crossing the lavaGlide across the first lava river, take a Zonai hydrant from the ruins on your right and use it on the lava to make stone slabs. Alternatively attach a rocket to a hydrant-made slab or to a shield and fly into the small room
BubbulfrogAt the end of the cave in a small room across the lava
Bring the roast homeLift the Rock Roast with Ultrahand, carry it out and fuse it to the nearby mine cart, which rolls it back to the Bistro; drop it at the counter to finish the quest
RewardsLarge Zonai Charge from Mezer; the follow-up quest Rock Roast or Dust reuses the cave and rewards a Seared Gourmet Steak
Chests / enemiesNo chests; the only enemy is the Bubbulfrog. Brightbloom Seeds and ore deposits are also in the cave
