Grow a Garden Gorilla Chef Guide
Master the Kitchen - Your legendary cooking companion with food duplication powers
The Gorilla Chef is a Legendary rarity pet in Roblox's Grow a Garden, introduced during the Kitchen Storm Update. This master chef brings the powerful King Cook ability that can duplicate your cooking output, making it an essential companion for serious cooking players.
Unlike traditional pets that focus on garden production, Gorilla Chef specializes in cooking activities, providing a unique advantage in the culinary aspect of the game. Its ability to duplicate food can significantly increase your rewards and efficiency during cooking events.
Source: Rat Connoisseur NPC
Gorilla Chef is obtained from the Rat Connoisseur NPC, which appears during Kitchen Storm events. This NPC displays specific food cravings that you must fulfill.
Acquisition Process
- Find the Rat Connoisseur NPC in the cooking area
- Check the craving bubble above their head for the required dish
- Cook the requested dish using the appropriate recipe
- Submit the completed dish to the NPC
- Receive rewards with a 5% chance of getting Gorilla Chef
Drop Rate & Rarity
Gorilla Chef has a 5% drop rate from Rat Connoisseur's reward pool, making it a relatively rare pet. You may need to submit multiple dishes before successfully obtaining this legendary cooking companion.
Ability Overview
King Cook is Gorilla Chef's signature ability that provides a 5-10% chance to duplicate food when cooking. This means you can potentially get double the output from a single cooking session, significantly increasing your rewards and efficiency.
Activation Requirements
Important: King Cook ability only activates when you have specific decorations placed in your garden:
- Cooking Pot decoration
- Cooking Cauldron decoration
Without these decorations, Gorilla Chef will not provide any benefits, even if you own the pet.
How It Works
- Place either Cooking Pot or Cooking Cauldron decoration in your garden
- Cook any dish using the cooking system
- Upon completion, King Cook has a 5-10% chance to trigger
- If successful, you receive an additional copy of the cooked dish
- This works with all cooking recipes and rarity levels
Potential Secondary Ability
Some players have reported that Gorilla Chef may also have an ability similar to Orangutan, providing a chance to not consume ingredients during cooking. However, this requires more community testing to confirm.
Advantages
- Resource Multiplier: Food duplication directly increases your cooking rewards and efficiency
- Long-term Value: If cooking becomes a permanent system, Gorilla Chef will remain valuable

Limitations & Positioning
- Decoration Dependent: Requires specific decorations to function
