Biography[]

Kirby Super Star/Kirby Super Star Ultra[]

Chef Kawasaki makes his debut in Kirby Super Star and its DS remake Kirby Super Star Ultra as a recurring mid-boss. He can extend his ladle towards Kirby and put him in a frying pan, and also throwing multiple plates at him. Chef Kawasaki can also start cooking and hurt Kirby if the latter is nearby.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Chef Kawasaki makes his debut as a summonable assist trophy. When used, Kawasaki's assist trophy is capable of throwing plates and grab foes with his ladle, with this second attack causing his foe to be dunked into a boiling pot in order to create recovery items. In addition, Kawasaki drops a recovery item just before leaving the stage as well.

Chef Kawasaki also appears in the game as one of its many spirits, with his taking the form of an ace-level, support-type spirit that significantly boosts the user's stats after eating a recovery item. In his spirit battle, the player fights a Pac-Man on the Dream Land stage, with Kawasaki's assist trophy being commonly summoned, the Pac-Man having a habit of consuming recovery items, and the Pac-Man becoming stronger after consuming said recovery items.
