Mirko Bogdanović is a young, but very experienced chef, who inherited the love for cooking from his biggest inspiration - his mother. Always looking a way for advancing, Mirko worked his way up in 5-star hotels, and did his training in a Michelin star restaurant Hugos in Berlin. In his +10 year career as a chef, he became an expert in Mediterranean and Asian cuisine. The person who showed him the world of yachting was his brother, a superyacht captain. Mirko is very serious in his work, but also a fun and sociable person with a very friendly character, always ready to give 100% for his guests. When he's not in the kitchen, Mirko likes to spend his time hanging out with his family and friends,
travel and do sports. He is native in Montenegrin, proficient in English and a beginner in Russian.
