Ordering seafood for a yacht meal: questions to discuss

A seafood menu can be a highlight, but the details need to suit the yacht and the guests. Confirm ingredients, preparation and service with the supplier rather than relying on a photograph.

Clarify the dishes

Ask about portion sizes, serving style and whether shellfish or other allergens are present. Discuss alternatives for guests who do not eat seafood.

Plan the handling and timing

The supplier should explain how the food will be prepared, stored and served appropriately. Do not arrange a prolonged photo session that delays the agreed service.

A balanced menu

Include choices that allow everyone to enjoy the meal. One seafood centrepiece can work alongside a broader selection rather than making every course the same style.
