FREE SPIRIT Yacht Charter Catamaran

As a fan of home-cooked food, I create menus based on my guests’ preferences and needs. I adapt my cooking to suit everyone’s dietary requirements and wishes, whilst ensuring we enjoy eating together – something I see as an important moment of pleasure and sharing on the water. I love French cuisine, as well as local and home-style cooking. I am skilled in preparing both raw and cooked fish. I am aware of new dietary trends (gluten-free, lactose-free, etc.) whilst ensuring a gourmet cuisine suited to the location.  Sonia Marchand
