Maitre Delish

Maitre Delish was a famous legendary chef. He made a cookbook, a book that could teach anyone how to be a perfect chef. (As a matter of fact, it is rumored that simply reading this book can instantaneously make one become a flawless cooker.) Not much is known about him, as he was only mentioned in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and not seen.

One of the copies of his book was left in Creepy Steeple by an unknown person thought to have once lived there; Mario later found this book. (The Creepy Steeple Boo also helped him find the book via email.) The book was not necessary to find in the overall plot of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, although Zess T. requested the book for her trouble, and, if Mario took the trouble on, she would reward him with a Honey Shroom and announce her newfound ability to cook two foods at once.

Wonky, found in Herb T.'s Place of Rogueport Sewers, makes another reference to the chef saying that he once ate food made by him in Poshley Heights, suggesting that he may have worked there in his lifetime. Maitre Delish is indeed thought to be dead, as Zess T. states that he existed "ages ago".
