Chef on board
A chef cooks in the galley for the hours you have the vessel. Plates come out as you cruise. This is still a charter-day brief, not a household chef plan.

WHAT THIS IS
You charter the yacht. We do the food.
We do not supply the vessel. You arrange the charter, or you already own the boat. We bring the food, the chef and the people who serve it, then we clear the galley before you dock — or whenever the crew asks us to be off.
A private chef yacht Dubai brief is still one day or one evening on the water. It is not a standing household plan. If you want the same chef in a home, week after week, that is private chef Dubai.

ON THE WATER
How yacht catering Dubai is planned around the galley
A yacht chef Dubai assignment is whoever can work that galley: smaller than a villa kitchen, fridge already half full of crew food, loading only when the marina opens the door. The menu has to survive that, or it should not be on the menu.
01→
Send the charter date, marina or berth, guest count, format, and anything you know about the galley.
02→
We plan what can be finished on land and what can honestly be cooked on board. Fridge space and oven space decide more than taste notes.
03→
Loading happens in the window the captain sets. Crates, ice, kit and people go on at the marina — not when it happens to suit a van.

Service on deck or in the saloon, then clear-down before you return, or at the time the crew agrees.
A chef for yacht charter Dubai needs the boarding time and the captain's contact, not a mood board. Boat catering Dubai is the same job with a different search: food planned for a moving deck.
FORMATS
What we can cook and serve on board
Light food holds up better in heat and swell: seafood, mezze, canapés, a grill if the deck allows it. Yacht party catering Dubai is the larger version of the same rules — more guests, more staff, still no dishes that only work in a restaurant pass.
Standing food and canapés
Passed bites and platters that guests can hold on a moving deck. Useful when people are standing, swimming, or moving between saloon and bow.
Grill on deck
A compact grill when the captain allows it and there is a safe patch of deck. Seafood, cuts and sides, finished in the open air rather than a land buffet.
Seated dinner
Courses at a table in the saloon or on the aft deck. Timing has to match the route and the swell, not a restaurant pass.
A larger day on the water
More guests, more staff, a mix of canapés, a grill and a dessert. The headcount and the vessel decide the team, not a named package.
Morning or sunset brunch
Lighter food for a shorter cruise. Fruit, eggs, bakery, cold seafood — whatever the galley and the hour can actually support.
Drinks sit with Bar services when the operator allows alcohol and you want a bar on deck. Menu ideas that actually travel are on Yacht party menu ideas.
THE QUOTE
What the quote is built from
Hosts looking for yacht catering packages Dubai get a written proposal, not a brochure of named deals. Guest count, menu, hours on board, staff, boarding marina and galley capacity are what build it.
Food, chef, service staff when the headcount needs them, setup and clear-down are in the proposal when they are in the brief. The yacht, fuel, marina fees and charter are yours.
Share the date, the marina, the guest count and the format. That is enough to start. The Yacht catering checklist is the list of what we will ask; the Yacht catering guide is the longer explanation of galley limits and routes.
BOARDING
Where we board
Most charters we cook for board at Dubai Marina, Palm Jumeirah or JBR. We also load where the vessel actually is — Dubai Harbour, Dubai Creek, Bluewaters — when the captain gives us a window.
