The Deck Host

Cold plates, a grill, and the sea doing the decorating

Your best evenings happen where there is no kitchen: a deck, a bay, a terrace above the water. You have learned that the constraint improves the food, and you would rather serve one perfect cold course and a grilled fish than a nine course menu that cannot be delivered.

Editor’s tip: Spend on ice and raw produce, prep everything ashore and brief the crew as service staff. Nothing fried, nothing that needs a second oven.
