Private chef or delivered catering for your yacht charter?

A private chef and prepared catering offer different experiences. The right choice depends on the meal's importance, available facilities and the rhythm of your cruise.

Consider the service style

Ask what is prepared aboard and what arrives ready to serve. A chef-led meal may need dedicated time and a suitable dining setup, while a buffet can support a more informal gathering.

Confirm the full scope

Check menu, staffing, crockery, setup and cleanup. Do not assume that a food package automatically includes a waiter or that every yacht can support the same cooking arrangements.

Choose by purpose

If dinner is the centrepiece, discuss a detailed service plan. If guests want to move around and socialise, convenient catering may suit the day better.
