Your “best taste” score is based off of the dishes you enhance. Typically fish that you catch deeper in the Blue Hole will cost more and have a better base “taste.” To get this achievement I leveled the Tiger Shark sushi dish to get to the Gold Influencer achievement. When the Glacial area opened I leveled the Narwhal sushi dish to get the Diamond Influencer achievement.

Gun variants such as a “Shock Grenade Launcher” or a “Fire Sniper Rifle” DO NOT count towards learning a recipe. You will need to pick up a PLAIN RECIPE 3 times to unlock it.
The grenade launcher and the ice gun will probably be the most difficult to find. The ice gun can only be found AFTER you unlock the Glacier Passage. After unlocking the Glacier Passage, I found the gun several times in the ice area as well as the Blue Hole Shallows. The grenade launcher is most likely to spawn in the Blue Hole Depths.

When you defeat the Truck Hermit Crab the GYAO’s should unlock. GYAO’s are very similar to Tamagotchi’s…. they pretty much are a Tamagotchi. You need to raise the GYAO to adulthood, let it die, and do it over again 5 times for this achievement.
Photographer

Took 10 photos at Photo Spots.
I was able to complete this achievement by just questing and exploring. There are many photograph opportunities, the first one being in the Deep Blue Depths. Once you take your first photo, more begin to occur throughout the map. As you progress in the story, more photo spots open in different areas/times of day.

This one is potentially missable if you don’t choose to pick up the rations in the Sea Blue base. I do not know if you are able to go back into the base so please just be aware.

This unlocks once you finish the game. During the credits, you need to find and “kill” all of the developer names before the credits finish.
