ARTISTRY ON THE PLATE

INDULGING IN UNFORGETTABLE CULINARY

EXPERIENCES 

IMMERSIVE DINING

Be mesmerised as our superyacht chefs showcase their talents in the exterior galley. This is not just dining — it's a captivating culinary performance that enlivens your senses.

A MOVEABLE FEAST

Each day on Flying Fox is a moveable feast. Crunch on crudites by the pool, eat homemade gelato at the ice-cream bar, and enjoy canapes on the sundeck— teeth sinking into soft blinis, tiny jewels of caviar bursting on your tongue.

CULINARY EXCELLENCE

Unlike most other yachts, our chefs have the option to cook with fire ensured by strict safety measures. Cooking on coal adds an unmatched dimension to food.
