- “Where'd you learn to cook, truck driving school?”
- —Gourmet Guy, Paper Mario
Template:Character-infobox Gourmet Guy is an always-hungry Fat Guy who works for Bowser and appeared in the game Paper Mario. He can be easily bribed by giving him a delicious Cake. He says he doesn't know why people call him Gourmet Guy, saying he's just an ordinary food-loving Shy Guy. Despite being one of Bowser's henchmen, he actually helps Mario and Princess Peach.
Paper Mario
Gourmet Guy is first seen in Shy Guy's Toy Box during the events of Chapter 4. He does not let Mario pass him due to his hunger and cannot move unless Mario gives him a Cake. If any other item is given to him, he spits it out and says his palate is too refined for that kinds of food. Tayce T. will cook one up for Mario for free when he returns her Frying Pan. When Gourmet Guy eats the Cake, he is so stunned by its taste that he starts flying around the area. He finally jumps off the screen, dropping a Cookbook that Mario can give to Tayce T., allowing her to make additional recipes.
Gourmet Guy later appears in Peach's Castle after Mario defeats General Guy and his Shy Guys. When Princess Peach enters the room, she sees Gourmet Guy. When he sees her, he first thinks that he should report to Bowser that Peach had escaped her room. But, deciding he is hungry instead, he says he will keep the event a secret if Peach bakes him something yummy. Since Peach does not have any ingredients ready to cook, Gourmet Guy gives Peach the Castle Key to the kitchen. After she obtains the Castle Key, he warns that there are guards on the first floor and she must be careful.
When Peach and Twink come back to the room with the cake, they give it to Gourmet Guy. When he eats the cake, he starts going wild, rushing around the area on the screen in the same manner as before. When Gourmet Guy is done, he tells Peach and Twink that one of the Star Spirits, Misstar, is currently inside Mt. Lavalava on Lavalava Island, but there is a Lava Piranha guarding the Star Spirit. He recommends that Twink pass on the information to Mario. Lastly, he briefly mentions that he really does not dislike Mario before leaving.
During the end parade, the Fearsome 5 partially devour Huff N' Puff and 2 Ruff Puffs, causing them to shrink. Seeing this, Gourmet Guy chases them.
Tattle
Goombario can use Tattle on Gourmet Guy only while he is blocking the railroad crossing in the Pink Station area of Shy Guy's Toy Box before Mario gives him a Cake.
