Game Appearances
Kirby Super Star/Kirby Super Star Ultra
In Kirby Super Star and its enhanced remake, Kirby Super Star Ultra, Chef Kawasaki is one of the Mid-Bosses fought repeatedly throughout the game. He attacks Kirby either by extending his frying pan towards him, briefly cooking and thus harming him if he manages to catch him, or by tossing either one or three plates, which can be inhaled and spat back at him. When swallowed after his defeat, Chef Kawasaki grants Kirby the rare Cook ability, and is the only creature in the game to do so.
Kirby's Dream Land 3
The chef makes a brief appearance in Kirby's Dream Land 3 as the operator of the mini-game in Iceberg (known as What was that sound?) that Kirby needs to win in order to acquire a Heart Star. The mini-game involves Kawasaki hitting a Gordo with his frying pan, which makes a unique sound when hit. Kirby then has to pick the Gordo that makes the exact same sound from a group of them that falls down.
Naturally, Chef Kawasaki appears again in MG-5.
Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land
In Nightmare in Dream Land, Kawasaki is the third opponent faced by Kirby in the Quick Draw Sub-Game, attacking with his pan.
Kirby Mass Attack
Chef Kawasaki appears in the Sub-Game Kirby Quest, in Chapter 1 - Stage 7. He has 100 HP and when defeated, will drop a Maxim Tomato on the Kirbys.
Kirby's Return to Dream Land
In the Sub-Game Scope Shot, a giant robot modeled after Chef Kawasaki is battled in Level 2. Its attacks are largely based on various food items, as well as attempting to defend with its frying pan and ladle.
Kirby: Star Allies
It has been reported via a Famitsu article that Chef Kawasaki will appear in Kirby: Star Allies, providing the Cook ability like before, and being recruitable as a Friend. This will mark his first 3-D appearance in the series.
Anime
Chef Kawasaki appears as a prominent character in Kirby: Right Back at Ya!, where he is the town cook. While generally kind and obliging, he is usually portrayed as a very bad cook, Kirby being the only resident of Cappy Town who likes his food. He does have many regular customers, however, as he runs the only restaurant in town.
