CHEF MIKE LOMBARDI was born on Staten Island New York and grew up along the Jersey Shore. The tradition of his grandmother’s customary Sunday meal with all the love and energy that went into it, and a beloved beloved uncle who acted as chef for Team USA at the Olympic games were strong influences and inspirations for him. Although Michael favors rustic Italian food over all others, he is also a master of West Indian Caribbean Cuisine and of Sushi, plus he delightedly serves up lots of other creative fusion dishes inspired by the Americas, the Caribbean and Asia.

After a move to the Caribbean, Mike worked as a restauranteur and chef, and as well found himself hosting smaller dinner parties and catering. The word got around, and as his following developed, he and the world of yacht charter discovered one another. Today, working onboard yachts is his favorite job ever. Not only does he love having a great ocean view, he really enjoys creating exquisite meals for a small number of guests, and being able to tailor dishes to individuals.

Chef Mike works well with dietary restrictions and preferences, and is happy to customize menus for guests. He likes to anticipate guests’ needs and looks forward to seeing empty plates coming back…often followed by a round of applause! He works with the rest of the crew to make each meal pleasingly ambient, and feels his creations bring people together.

 Before the charter Chef Mike can be found visiting the island markets for fresh local produce. Inspiration can be driven by a catch of the day, fresh, organic vegetables/herbs and engaging with local farmers. He strives to source sustainably and buy local wherever possible, following today’s trends toward healthier eating and desire for local ingredients.

For example, try his Caribbean Lobster Rangoon, Stoneground Mustard­ Encrusted Rack of Lamb and Creamy Mushroom Risotto, all created from fresh and local produce where possible.

When off charter, Mike can be found chasing a few waves with his surf board and exploring other nearby Caribbean islands.
