Zess T. is a grumpy Toad chef in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door who resides in Rogueport.
Mario first comes across her as she is searching for her missing Contact Lens; after Mario accidentally steps on it and crushes it, Zess T. refuses to allow him into Rogueport's West Side until he buys her a new one. Even after he does, Zess T. still harbors a bit of a grudge, referring to him as names such as "Stompy" or "Sir Stomps-a-lot".
Her cooking is limited to one item at a time until Mario finds Maitre Delish's Cookbook hidden in a back room of Creepy Steeple. After completing this task, she is able to cook two items into one.
Trivia
- According to Wonky, Zess T. has a sister who lives far away, who is implied to be Tayce T. This would also make The Master Zess T.'s brother.
- Zess T.'s name is a pun of the word "Zesty", which, in a way, describes her personality, as well as being a reference to her cooking skills.
- According to an e-mail Mario receives, Zess T. is fifty-five years old during the events of the game. *Additionally, another e-mail claims Zess T. and Toadsworth became romantically involved during his stay in Rogueport. However, this may or may not be true and is never mentioned outside of the mail.
