Chef Andrew Durham
Andrew honed his skills over 20 years, and is now Head Chef on board Burgess charter yacht NAIA, bringing the diverse flavours from his travels to each charter.
Before turning his career to superyachts, Andrew spent two decades exploring his trade. He travelled the world as a chef in the Royal Navy, competed in the UK MasterChef The Professionals TV series, became a personal chef and worked at several restaurants. Always keen to explore the next challenge, he has found his niche creating extraordinary food experiences for guests on NAIA...
'Being on NAIA is really brilliant, I absolutely love it,' says Andrew. 'Having charter parties on board is the best. It is such a pleasure to get to know each guest's individual taste and serve the finest quality ingredients.
'People often ask for a recipe to take with them, to recreate their favourite charter meal at home. The two recipes I have chosen here are always popular, and a great way to show off star ingredients. Try them at home, or better still, come aboard NAIA and I can make them for you!'

Thai red curry lobster
'This recipe is inspired by Thai street food. NAIA guests love this dish with the fresh lobster, it is a light, healthy, really tasty curry. The flavours are truly authentic, as confirmed by my Thai wife.
'Often a guest will ask for seafood caught that day, and the sous chef goes in the tender to the local market. It is a joy to work with such ingredients.'

NAIA
As Caroline Taylor, Burgess Charter Fleet Manager, explains, NAIA is an exceptional charter yacht. 'Not only does this very special yacht have so many of the features charterers look for - private decks for the principle charterer, beautiful interior styling, flexible cabin configuration, and a certified helipad - she has a crew that elevates each charter experience.
'Chef Andrew is the perfect example of how the NAIA crew respond to the individual preferences of each guest, and look for ways to make each charter unique and special for them. It is a testimony to the crew and yacht that Burgess has very experienced charterers booking NAIA - because they know that their charter will be a huge success.'
