The Character

Chef Bonju is probably the most famous of all plot characters. Why? Because of his avatar. However, we'll get to that later.

Bonju is an Orange Blumaroo, to put it frankly. He is found in Shenkuu at Culinary Concoctions (external link), which is very similar to Mystery Island's Cooking Pot (external link). However, there are no known recipes that can be used there.

Bonju made his debut in the Cyodrake's Gaze plot (external link) in 2006. He was the crew member that pushed Hoban (the Navigator) off the ship in the storm. He's also known for his bad food (despite him being a "master culinary artist"). He was also featured in Neopets Puzzle Adventure (video game).

Bonju is featured in two released items, pictured below. The item names are Bonju and Captain Tuan Friend Garland and Bonju Stamp, respectively.

The Avatar

The Chef Bonju avatar tookover three years to figure out. On August 28, 2009, TNT released an Editorial with various hints to the avatar, located here (external link). The solution was found soon after (about a couple hours). You must set the Mad About Orange avatar to your active avatar and then mix a Blumaroo Steak, Gourmet Cooking for Your Pet, and an Orange Juice in the Cooking Pot (external link) on Mystery Island, NOT Culinary Concoctions. However, it is a seasonal avatar - it is only available during the month of August.
