Samuel has a string of Michelin star level restaurants to his name. Growing up in New Zealand, Samuel’s first experience of the culinary world was co-owning and holding the role of Head Chef of Soho Bar and Restaurant in New Zealand. He then moved to the fine dining scene and was Sous Chef, and subsequently Head Chef, at three Michelin star level institutions across New Zealand and Australia. In 2021, Samuel took the leap to cooking on yachts and has since worked on two 50m+ vessels as the sole rotational chef. Both yachts were dual season, so he has experienced the delights of both the Mediterranean and Caribbean, sourcing fresh, local ingredients from wherever the anchor drops.

Minette is from South Africa and spent three years working for her diploma at the Institute of Culinary Arts. She then had the opportunity to gain valuable hospitality and culinary experience at La Petite Calombe (a high-end group of South African restaurants) and the Delaire Graff wine estate. In 2022, Minette joined a 212m cruise ship and worked as an assistant chef providing freshly made dishes morning, noon and night! Her second cruise ship role saw her assisting the Head Pastry Chef with the daily dessert preparation and designing new menus. In summer 2023, Minette transferred to the superyacht industry and had significantly fewer mouths to feed, meaning she could refine and personalise her menus, again focussing on her favourite course - dessert! She loves baking cakes for any birthdays and anniversaries too! Minette is a keen reader and loves spending her down time reading by the water, whether at the beach or a sunny lake.
