TheTangerino Grill Chef is a yellowToad that appears inPaper Mario: Color Splash. He is the head chef of theTangerino Grill.
WhenMario arrives at Tangerino Grill, the kitchen is attacked by a troupe of mischievousShy Guys. Mario must save the chef from a Shy Guy who is jumping on him. Due to the injuries that a Shy Guy gave him, he is unable to makeMamma Mia Pizza for the customers. He has Mario take his place as the head chef, and explains to him three steps to make the Mamma Mia Pizza. Once Mario finishes that pizza, the chef tells him to spy on the customers' reactions. The chef is satisfied with the results, and is completely healed when he eats a slice of the pizza.
The chef becomes angry when he learns that aVIP customer had been kept waiting. He tells Mario to help the VIP, as he says that, though his body is healed, he is not mentally prepared to help the VIP. The chef congratulates Mario after he makesfood that satisfies the VIP, as he never accepts any of his food. He is also happy that he gave the restaurant a rating of a star and a half. The chef is seen alongside the restaurant host and a yellow Toad holding a mixing bowl in the "This Here's Paint Country!" dance.
When Mario thaws the freezer out with theHair Dryer, the chef places the last slice of Mamma Mia Pizza into it. He tells Mario that he will be sad when the pizza is finally gone.
