Biography



Dave is the child of the Waitress and the Chef. Despite being the younger brother, he watches over his older brother, Big Bro. Dave often pretends to be an Oinker.

After Tingle reaches Sunshine Seashore and returns to Port Town, Dave can be found at the fountain. When Tingle speaks to him, he offers the adventurer some advice.[3] He states that in order to get Rupees, Tingle must sell Items that he has either made or found to the townsfolk.[4] He presents his father, the Town Chef, as an example, stating that he works in a restaurant and will buy Fruits and Veggies.[1] After this comment, Dave's Big Bro will walk by, and Dave tells Tingle that his Brother is heading off to Sunshine Seashore.[2]
