Whether hosting an intimate dinner on the eve of the race or a leisurely lunch on the water with international guests, every element is meticulously managed. The chef provides the fine cuisine, elegant arts de la table, tailored floral arrangements, and a professional maître d'hôtel to oversee service from the opening course to the final pour. Vegetarian options, gluten-free requirements, and any specific allergies or dietary preferences are seamlessly integrated from your very first consultation.
