Chef is Mr. Game & Watch's Neutral Special Move. He pulls out a frying pan and tosses sausages, which fly erratically through the air.
Overview
The sausages do low amounts of damage, but they can be used to deter angled attacks. The pan itself is somewhat more powerful, and also does fire damage. If the Special Move button is tapped repeatedly, the speed Mr. Game & Watch tosses the food out will be increased.
In Brawl, the pan tosses out more food, such as chicken legs and fish.

Origin
The original Game & Watch Chef.
Chef was a Game & Watch game where the player took on the role of a chef cooking various foods by flipping them with his frying pan. The player had to keep all the food airborne until it was finished, lest it fall on the floor and promptly eaten by an awaiting mouse or be speared on a fork by a perched cat.
Chef makes an appearance in the background of Flat Zone 2; the falling food deals damage upon contact as a stage hazard.
Trophy Description
Chef
Back in the days of the Game & Watch and the early NES years, there were a lot of games with short and simple titles—and at just four letters and one syllable, Chef is a prime example.
