I figured that something was not quite right because the clock on the wall was not keeping up with the interview. LOL. Nice one, though, thanks.
Shaun's fortunate to work with two great chef's, Dean and Nina. Great video Jared!
I started following Nina on the boat that she served on before Loon . My daughter trained at Johnson and Wales in Charleston SC . I have learned a lot about the culinary industry from her and Nina stretched that knowledge considerably.
I practiced dentistry for fourth five years in the same location. The nomadic side of yachting intrigues me . Given another run at life I would certainly consider the culinary profession on a yacht !
I owned a fishing boat and loved going to sea . Can’t imagine living there . I know the stress of dealing with demanding patients and think thatI could deal with that .
Thank you all for taking the time to share your experiences with a lot of “ wanna be’s “!
Jared an excellent video on Dean and yes Seanne has to be mentioned. The meals served on Loon from what I have seen since watching Loon on You Tube is outstanding. Even when Chef Nina is in rotation with Chef Dean Chef Nina is remarkable. in her own right. Both have their different styles. I would absolutely love the chance to taste the cuisine both these remarkable chef's serve up. Again, we cannot forget Sean as he himself is a huge benefit to the success of both Chef's. The 20 crew members of Loon are extremely lucky to have Sean who is in charge of their meals. Crew eat 1st class and indeed deserve it. Also, a shout out to Capt. Paul for allowing the success in the Galley. Outstanding Loon
Never knew this account was out there!! LOON Rocks!! Shaun is the dude and is learning daily!! Love the food prepared on Loon and the cool vids of the behind the scenes of prep, shopping, dealing with the clients, etc! Thanks!
Chef Dean and Sou Shawn are both great cooks, plus Chef Nina, trained by Chef Dean,,,,Great Team!
Fantastic collaboration- chef Dean and Jared Whitney. As someone who sucks at cooking, I would love to experience it just once.
Nice to see you back on Loon again
Great video with Dean, lots of beautiful dishes created
Wonderful. I had not been viewing for a while so it is nice to see Jared and Chef Dean working together again on Loon. Last time I saw you two was on yacht Ariance. The food looked so beautiful that I would like the menus and recipes. Thank You Jared.
this is the perfect video. ive been a chef on land for 10 years now and looking to transition onto a yacht hopefully next year, Dean, Nina and Shaun are great inspirations to me
Jared... yet another fantastic job posting photographic excellence starring Chef Dean on yacht Loon.
Great as usual Jared! Great videographer, fantastic yacht!
Great to see a Chef at the top of their game, doing what they love, on the best yacht charter out there!
Been looking back for your channel for years thank god I found it back, missed the content, time to catch up
Ahhh! Epic stuff Dean - Amazing to see.
As always great content. Loon is an amazing yacht with a crazy crew....
Loon most probably came up in my feed because of me being subscribed to your channel & I've been watching their videos since they bought the new bigger Loon. Great video as always.
That food looked outstanding, every single bit of it. Great video thanks
Superb walk-through and lifestyle explanation.
What an amazing guy !
So fun to watch .
I can only imagine the taste of the exquisite food..
Nice to see a new video from you Jared its been a while hope all is well
Nice video Jared🎉
Two legends in one video! Bargain
I see Captian Paul schmoozing hard with the brokers.
this is so awesome
8:45 I was under the impression that guests pay for their food in addition to the charter fee. They also pay for gas and mooring and essentially everything. The only thing the base fee gets you is the time on the boat and the crew's time (and you still owe a tip) So obviously you can spend as much as they'll pay for food. If they want to drink a $100,000 bottle of wine, that's fine because they'll be billed for it.
You actually cannot do the charter for the charter price because you can't stay anywhere (berthing fees) and you can't go anywhere (fuel costs) without paying more.
You are correct guests pay an APA ( advance provisioning allowance) this is normally set at a level which is likely to cover all consumables food, drinks, berthing fuel etc. Tip is normally on top but depending what’s left in the APA it is sometimes left as the tip. If your up for spending a million bucks a week for your hols then a broker will explain all this to you while you are booking Loon 😁
😍 Dreamboat Dean
“Don’t make a Baguette if you’re in France” well said Dean.
Nice video!
I'm laughing. " Is there a Limit to what you can spend on food aboard ? "
Seriously? Food is extra, the Charter party has to pay for it. Plus the yacht is holding a massive deposit for security.
Of course it is stressful being the Head Chef on Loon (with Nina). The Captain of M/Y Loon believes the galley does nothing but chop vegetables and prepare carrots 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’d love to see a job swap for the day so we could see if Paul changed his mind!
@@danielheathcote5625one day…. Easy for the captain!! BF, lunch dinner BBQ!!! &… the dishes stay in the sink and the chef can clean it by himself and the chef will never ever find his equipment anymore….😂and… the guests would be happy that the captain cook!!
Every dish shown really is a work of art. As a guest, I would have a difficult time eating them, no matter how good they undoubtedly taste. I might just ask for something simple, such as a tuna fish sandwich 😊
However, I realize that a great deal of time was invested in the careful and skilled creation of the menu on a given charter, so I suppose I could bring myself to eat what the chefs prepare 😀
Well now I want some of those tacos
Loons video was so weak. So glad this followed it up. Much better. Non click bait.
I feel so hungry!
😂 I was like these guys trippin and then it happened at the end….
Wowzers! Ha - everyone wants to be a chef until you work 15 a 16 hours a day for 14 days in a row. 😂 amazing what you are able to do! 😮
Nice 👍
I wondered why it sounded like Jared was post stroke talking to Dean
I thought Nina Wilson AKA TheCrewChef was the head Chef on Loon. Please explain. Thank you
Nina and Dean are both head chef's for Loon. Each overlaps, 6 weeks on, 6 weeks off or so.
Lekker
Make video on how can we become deckhand in 2024. How much it cost or it have future like job safety.
I just want to figure out, how he keeps everything warm at serving.
Every meal could be your last meal.. wow. No pressure. lol.
I think I missed a video or something. Where is nina?
Meanwhile I’m over here eating a pop tart
Can someone tell me why almost everyone seems to be from SA/Aus?
👍✅
Only 1 in a 1000 could be a chef
and only 1 in 10,000 could be a Yacht chef.
I know someone she’s been cooking/chefy for years…a bit more than a year ago she announces she want goes to be a chef on a yacht. 😂 I almost 💀
Btw it’s been like four months since the last video
I wonder what the chef does when they get a burger, fries and chicken wing guest. Or a rare steak and potatoes with Cheetos guest?
The same as any other request. There's nothing wrong with Cheetos!!!
👍🌺👍🌺👍🌺
Every flight could be your last.
- a pilot
Yeah. We Know. Many cheffs feel its very stressful to boil pasta. 😂 👍
35 metre boat, 50 guests and 20 crew, plus cooking for 100 guests on the day boat? I find this pretty unbelievable as a sole chef?
Nope
What happened to Nina?
I’ll have a ham sandwich thanks, and a beer.
What happened to Blair?
Bigger dreams and hes chasing them :)
Where is Nina?
Rotational chefs. 2 months on, 2 off
Is Nina not onboard anymore?
Nina and Dean rotate as head chef between Loon and Loon 180, every couple or few months, I believe!
If I don't remember incorrectly they rotate between the position as head chef on M/Y Loon and having time off, not between both boats. (?)
@@hanneslindstrom10 You're probably right!
Both Nina and Dean rotate as our amazing head chef doing 8weeks on / 8 weeks off. 🛥️👩🍳👨🍳
So be rests his bum on the food-preparation counter..
That’s the first thing I noticed
Nina gone ?
Are you as good as Gordon Ramsey ?
Chef Dean trained Gordon Ramsey
Shame to spend your working career worrying about the sack all the time.
It’s such a pity that you stage an interview like this. So unnatural! I’m a great fan of this channel and the crew, but this interview does not match this class of boat.
It wasn’t staged. But it was corrected after a camera malfunction which you see at the end.
I am impressed with your Cook. Chef, is an over used b.s. term. He cooked for 50 people. A 100., that tells me a lot. He is the real deal and can cook.
I am not impressed, with massive white plates, with tiny artistic portions in the center. Every part touched and managed by your bare hands. Less, costs more. I bet this guy could cook some real food like Marco Pierre White does in his current restaurant, since he ditched his Michelin Stars.
No offense
But if I owned the Yacht 🛥️, I would want simple foods
