Whatever your dietary needs... Allison makes your stay on the Orion a pleasurable experience.
My cooking is inspired by the cuisines of Mexico, India, Italy, Thailand, The Pacific Islands, Mediterranean, California fusion, and Japanese sushi... just to name a few!

Daily menus reflect local availability;  prepared to suit the location, climate and the desires of those sharing the table.  I enjoy experimenting with new tastes and flavors and learning traditional dishes from the locals.

My main focus is cooking for Charter Orion's guests and private yacht owners.  I am a graduate of the Living Light Culinary Arts Institute in Northern California with an Associate Chef and Instructor certificate as well as Pastry Arts Unbaked training in raw food preparation.  I am also a self taught chef with over 30 years of experience. I love to learn from those I cook with and for.  I have catered for people desiring to lose weight, vegetarians, vegans, raw foodies, no fat, cholesterol free, heart patients, diabetics, meat eaters, and kids, whatever you like...It's my pleasure!

Let me surprise you with homemade yogurt, herbs grown aboard the Orion and a sprouting garden in the galley of this beautiful 90 foot catamaran.

Hospitality begins with a welcome smile, an offer of a refreshing beverage, a tantalising appetizer and continues throughout your days' activities.  When dining on Orion...My artful presentation is the ultimate expression of your culinary experience.
"My culinary style is inspired by world travels, 200,000 sea miles, and my love of whole foods.  I like to cook using fresh produce;  opting for local spray free, organic, and free range when available".
