As we eagerly anticipate the 10th edition of the Mediterranean Yacht Show, one of the most captivating features on the agenda is, once again, the prestigious Chefs’ Competition.

This celebrated event provides a platform for yacht chefs to showcase their culinary brilliance, drawing inspiration from Greece’s rich gastronomic heritage. Each year, the challenge invites participants to interpret a unique theme, and in 2025, the focus shifts to: 

Greek Cuisine: A Gastronomic Journey Through the Years   

This year's challenge calls on chefs to explore the soul of Greece through food, not simply as a collection of time-honoured recipes, but as a dynamic expression of landscape, memory, and cultural continuity. Chefs are invited to delve into this rich narrative and present a dish that captures the heart of Greek culinary identity, whether by reinventing a regional classic with modern precision, crafting a composition from hyper-local, seasonal ingredients, or transforming a traditional staple into an artful expression of place.

Running alongside the Chefs’ Competition, the Tablescaping Competition is a celebration of aesthetics, creativity, and meticulous attention to detail. Chief stewards and stewardesses are invited to design table settings that reflect their own style and vision, highlighting the flair and imagination that elevate onboard hospitality and transform each table into a distinctive visual experience.
