I've been on more than 30 super yachts over the past ten years and honestly can't think of a single one that had a female chef. I'm just now realizing this. Do you find your industry is primarily guys or do you know a lot of women chefs as well?

I asked a head stewardess one time what the previous charter guest was like, she said they had someone in their group that requested a lavish ice cream dessert around 2AM every day for a week and she had to wake up the chef every time and felt horrible about it every time.

On the other end of the spectrum, have you dealt with a guest that only requested such mundane foods that you wondered why you were there?

"ANOTHER ham sandwich!?!?" :D

It's amazing to me that the industry is so big and specific that there is a website dedicated to the specific profession.

I was on a yacht for a boss trip (a rare occasion for me) and the guests wanted dinner from a restaurant served on board. So the purser called the restaurant and placed an order that the deck crew would pick up with a tender. There was a language mix up and there were only 2 meals prepared when they needed 12. The time from the restaurant to the yacht was nearly half an hour, so they didn't want the guests waiting for more meals to be prepared. The yacht chef just said he'd look up the restaurant's menu online and "make their dishes".

Have you ever done "covert" meals for guests?

Is your taint made of cast iron?

Pixel? Does Google know you're doing this? You might get some sponsorships which could turn into having flights or hotels paid for ;)
