What cuisines can the chef prepare?
French, Italian, Japanese, Mediterranean, Arabic, and fusion menus can be planned. The final choice depends on the chef assigned, yacht galley space, service time, and ingredient availability.
Thailand
Private Chef on Your Dubai Yacht Charter
Pre-charter consultation, ingredient planning, live cooking on deck or in the galley, plating, and cleanup for your Thailand yacht charter. The chef builds the menu around your group rather than handing you a fixed package.
The process starts before boarding. You choose the cuisine direction, flag allergies, share the guest count, and decide how formal the meal should feel. French can mean canapés and plated courses. Italian can mean handmade pasta and seafood. Arabic can mean grilled meats, mezze, and family-style service. Japanese, Mediterranean, and fusion menus can be planned when the yacht layout and prep time support them.
On the day, the chef works with the yacht crew on galley access, service timing, and cleanup before docking. Pricing is quoted by menu, headcount, yacht size, and service format, not copied from generic private-chef averages. For larger groups, we will also confirm the yacht capacity and applicable passenger rules before promising a setup.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should we book?
Book at least 72 hours ahead for menu planning and ingredient coordination. Last-minute bookings may be possible for simpler menus, but custom chef menus need more lead time.
Can the chef accommodate dietary restrictions?
Yes. Share vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, halal-friendly, kosher-style, allergy, or other requirements during consultation so the chef can plan the menu and flag any galley limitations.
How is private chef pricing calculated?
We quote by menu style, guest count, yacht size, service format, and ingredients. We do not publish a fixed per-head promise because a canapé cruise and a plated dinner need different staffing and prep.
Does the 12-person yacht rule affect chef service?
It can affect yacht selection and guest capacity. If your group is large, we confirm the vessel classification and onboard service space before finalizing the chef setup.
