About The Show
Chowder is an American animated television series that debuted on Cartoon Network on November 2, 2007. The show is created by C. H. Greenblatt, of SpongeBob SquarePants and The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy fame. The series is set in "Marzipan City" and features a young kid named Chowder, who is Mung Daal's young apprentice chef. Usually during the day, Chowder will perform tasks for Mung Daal while learning how to be a chef, but the problem is that Chowder eats everything in sight, which results in countless misadventures. The show is known for its combining of traditional and Stop motion animation, computer coloring techniques and puppetry.
The Characters
Chowder
Chowder is a small and eccentric child. He wants to become a great chef, the problem is he's always hungry and eats any kind of food. Chowder is Mung Daal's cooking apprentice. Chowder is an orphan that lives with Mung Daal and his family. Chowder has a pet stink cloud named Kimchi. He is voiced by Nicky Jones.
Mung Daal
A food inventor and Chowder's master. He is teaching Chowder how to be a chef. He invents rare food like the "Not Fruit" pronounced as "no fruit". He seems to wear a kilt. He is voiced by Dwight Schultz.
Truffles
Truffles is Mung Daal's wife, who handles the business side of Mung Daal's Catering business. She wears a pink mushroom as a hat. She also likes chewing gum and hates when no one shares gum. She is prone to outbursts when dealing with orders. She is voiced by Tara Strong.
Shnitzel
A professional chef who works at Mung Daal's Catering. His vocabulary consists of saying "Radda" over and over, but other characters can understand him anyway. He is like a big brother to Chowder, although Chowder seems to get on his nerves a lot. [1] He is voiced by both John DiMaggio and Kevin Michael Richardson.
Panini
Panini has a crush on Chowder (who does not return the feelings), and lets him know this at every time she can. Chowder also yells,"I'm not your boyfriend!" at Panini and quickly changes the subject. She is also Ms. Endive's apprentice. She is voiced by Liliana Mumy.
Ms. Endive
A tall and pudgy chef who teaches culinary skill to Panini with strict discipline. She is often unkind, and considers Mung Daal to be her inferior rival. She appears to have a dislike for men because she claims one preposed to her, but didn't show up at the wedding (This is revealed in the episode "Chowder's Girlfriend"). She is Voiced by Mindy Sterling.
Gazpacho
An elephant-like storekeeper, selling strange food and playing pranks on his customers. Gazpacho is fat and is revealed to be lazy (because he doesn't do more than 1 sit-up a day: as revealed in "Chowder's Girlfriend" ). Voiced by Dana Snyder
Gorgonzola
An apprentice candle holder who has a surly attitude and seems to have issue with Chowder due to him having a better job than Gorgonzola.
Marzipan City
The city the show takes place in is actually an amazing place to behold, with varying geographical places. It is based on buildings seen all over the world, and then combined into a melting pot of an island. Outside the City Limits, it can be seen that there is a huge giant that holds up the entire city up on his shoulders. There is a volcano on one part of the city called Mt. Fondoom, where instead of lava, there is a big pot that is filled to the brim with hot fondue. There is also the marketplace, where Gazpacho's shop is seen to be located. Mung Daal's home and catering shop is close by. All of the inhabitants seem to be animal like creatures. Strange supernatural beings float on smaller islands above Marzipan City. The currency is the dollop.
