George Lappas

George Lappas cooks on Astra Yachting crewed charters, preparing breakfasts, lunches, dinners and snacks with fresh local ingredients.

A chef on board changes the shape of the day. Meals happen where the yacht happens to be, so breakfast can be at anchor and lunch somewhere you only reached by sea.

Menus are built around what guests actually want and around dietary preferences, which are worth mentioning before the charter rather than on the first morning. What is stocked before you board is covered on the provisioning page.

A chef is part of a crewed charter, and also of the yachts offered by the cabin.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are all meals prepared on board?

As many as you want. Most charters mix meals on board with dinners ashore in the ports and islands on the route.

Can dietary requirements be accommodated?

Yes, if they are known in advance. Tell us before the charter so the provisioning order and the menus are prepared accordingly.

Who does the shopping?

Provisioning is arranged before departure so the yacht is stocked when you arrive, and topped up from local markets during the trip.
