What you are looking for is a recipe called Papa Bird & Baby Bowl. It replaces the Mother & Child Rice Bowl, which only gives you a 50% boost to Perception (but a 100% EXP boost).

This new recipe not only grants a 100% boost to Perception (and drop rates) but also increases HP by 1000 and gives a 40% EXP boost. The way the Perception boost works is that if an item has a drop rate of, say, 10%, then this recipe will boost that drop rate up to 20%. All in all, it is a really worthwhile item to find – especially when you’re trying to gather items or supplies. 

Welcome to Lestallum!

The recipe can be found in Lestallum at the lookout. On the right-hand side, you will find a lady sitting at a bench and eating. Interact with her and you will get it. For this recipe, you will need the following ingredients:

Basilisk Breast Birdbeast Egg Saxham Rice

All of these are easily sourced, so you shouldn’t have any issues putting together this Perception-boosting meal.
