The series follows an aspiring young boy named Chowder and his day-to-day adventures as an apprentice in Chef Mung Daal's catering company. Although he means well, Chowder often finds himself in predicaments due to his perpetual appetite and his nature as a scatterbrain. Chowder's guidance in his goal to become a master chef is influenced by Mung's wife, Truffles; Mung's assistant Shnitzel; Mung's rival Ms. Endive; her apprentice Panini, who has a perpetual crush on Chowder; as well as other side characters. The show had one win and two nominations at the Primetime Emmy Awards as well as six nominations at the Annie Awards. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
