It would be nice, but I don't bother going to the first floor provisioning station I do my daily writs, then leave Elden Root for the pods which have both a chef and brewer, who have the recipes I need, and a cooking fire.
I bought Snugpod precisely to avoid climbing the Elden tree for Master Writs (now I have an enchanting and alchemy stations there). There is a cooking fire near the wayshrine anyway on the bottom floor of Elden Root.
