You say, 'Hail, Cook Yalkiin'

Cook Yalkiin says 'Welcome to our kitchen! As you can tell we stay pretty busy in here. There are a lot of people to feed and a vast number of delicious meals to feed them. I'm in charge of preparing stews, broth, and vegetables. If you ever have any questions about those areas, please let me know.'

You say, 'What about stews?'

Cook Yalkiin says 'Stews are a staple in this kitchen. When a cook can't think of a real meal or needs to feed a large number of people in a hurry, they can always whip up a stew. You have to be able to adapt and provide, friend. That's our role here. We're here to make sure people eat. When food is abundant, we can be as lavish as we please. When I'm in a hurry or out of supplies, I like to throw some Beetle Claws in some boiling broth and... bam! It's soup!'

You say, 'What beetle claws?'

Cook Yalkiin says 'Beetle claw stew is quick, easy, and fills stomachs. The main ingredient comes from the Rhino Beetles that can be found in abundance around the city. We use the claws in a variety of dishes, so we can always use a few more. Here, I can give you a bag if you want to go gather some for me. Just fill it up and come back.'

You receive a Stained Mesh Bag, a LORE NO DROP 4-slot size SMALL container. Hunt A Rhinobeetle Hatchling in the pit below the city to get the 4 required Rhino Beetle Claws, which are a fairly common drop. Combine them in the bag to craft a Full Mesh Bag. Give this to Cook Yalkiin.

Cook Yalkiin tosses the bag in a pile with several others and hands you your payment. 'Thank you very much,' he says. 'The more of these that I can gather, the better. I always seem to be low.'

You gain experience!!
You receive 6 copper from Cook Yalkiin.
You receive 5 silver from Cook Yalkiin.

So it's the opening of Shadows of Luclin on Aradune today and went to do this quest.

Outside of the coin reward listed above, I also received:

Wooden Practice Long Sword (worth ~6s)
Wooden Practice Flail (worth ~6s)

Though the claws are relatively easy to come by, the rewards of coin is minimal, and the exp given is minimal too.

I've done this quest 7-8 times in the last 2 days.

Most of the time you just get coin.

once I got a weapon: wooden practice spear

once I got armor: tattered hopperhide shoulders


This suggests (like his other quests) there is a range of loot you might get, if you have the patience to do his quest a bazillion times.
Not bad..

Since I was going to be hunting in the pit anyway, this wasn't too bad...I know it doesn't take long to get the claws and its really easy money...I got cash and a practice weapon...

Quest still works (did it today on TLP). Minor xp at level 2. I got tattered hopperhide arms and belt from my first two turn ins as well --which might make it more appealling for fresh rerolls on progression.
Not impressive, but...

Considering the relative impoverishment of Shar Vahl (compared to, say, Qeynos with plague rat tails and whatnot), Cook Yalkiin's two quests are pretty valuable. You're going to be hunting stuff in the pit anyway, so you might as well get extra cash from it. Sometimes he gives out a bit of tattered leather armor or a wooden practice weapon; that's rare.
