Chef Bear is a character in Link's Awakening.[1]

Biography[]

Chef Bear resides in a house located in the southeastern corner of Animal Village. She can be found cooking and talking about opening a branch in Mabe Village.[3] She is very amiable to Link and offers him advice on how he can get past the Walrus that blocks Yarna Desert.[4] She is very fond of Marin, and like other residents she refers to her as "Little Marin".[5]

She is also essential for completing the Trading Quest,[2] as she has run out of ingredients.[6] She asks Link to give her the Honeycomb he obtained from Tarin.[7] In exchange, she gives Link a Pineapple. She believes Honeycombs to be a rare delicacy.[8]

Trivia[]

  • Chef Bear is one of the few residents of Animal Village that does not leave her home when Marin visits.
