Frequently asked questions
What's on the Californian five-course menu?
Caramelized fig salad, butter-poached shrimp, ricotta ravioli with wild mushrooms, miso-braised short rib, chocolate ganache cake — California's greatest hits, cooked to order. Full menu on this page.
Is this the right first yacht dinner to book?
It's our signature recommendation — familiar flavors executed at fine-dining level, crowd-safe for mixed tables, and the format shows off everything the dockside program does.
Can the five courses change for our table?
Yes — individual courses adapt for dietary needs at any party size, and from six guests the full menu is customizable with the chef.
What wines suit this menu?
A chardonnay or pinot for the early courses and a cabernet for the short rib is the classic California pairing — bring your own, no corkage, crew-served.
How long is the dinner, and can it extend?
About two hours dockside, with extensions quoted on request — mention it at booking and we'll confirm against the evening's schedule.
