Here are the highlights for
November 2nd, 2018
We began on the north docks with our first entrant. Chief Stew CC Childers and Anna Endler, from M/Y Ocean Club, competed in all categories showcasing a “Chic Coral Lunch” setting winning them 3rd Prize and a “Luxe Vietnamese” accolade.
An inspired interior setting featured a refreshing “Smoked Paloma” (Tequila, lime juice, grapefruit juice, cherry wood smoke, fresh sage & pomegranate seeds) that was presented on a rock salt block and served with a sweet rim on a shot glass. Outstanding work ladies! Tip of the day: "When you set the table, sit down and make sure your guests can see across the centerpiece."
Chief Stew Brittny Otto & Grace Gravett from M/Y Rebel were inspired by the Halloween Holiday and created a centerpiece with different colors and sizes of pumpkins. Each napkin was wrapped with a unique acorn design. Copper wine glasses gave it a sparkle and bats hanging from the light fixture made it playful, yet elegant. They stole the judge’s hearts and won 1st Place Luxe Interior. Their drink featured Champagne and Gin with delicious hand crafted maraschino cherry syrup (my mouth is watering right now). They also earned the “Stylish Menu Design” award. Tip of the day: "Don’t take stewardessing too seriously. Have fun!"
M/Y Abbracci took honors for Most Artistic Napkin Fold. Congratulations Chief Steward Melveen Malabanan, Maeve Crimmins, Christine, Marilyn & Joy. Check out the Top Notch Tabletop Stew Video on how to make the beautifully pressed butterfly.
Chief stewardess Tanarae Hopkins from M/Y Angel Wings, created a colorful and harmonius “Traveler” style-setting that included personal pieces collected on her travels. Vintage layered crockery combined with an elegant brooch as the napkin ring and every detail was tastefully designed. She won Top Creative Centerpiece, and her Tip of the day: "Wherever you are based, go out and find fun pieces to decorate your table."
Chief stewardess Linda Saylor and Brianna Eckel from M/Y Black Gold complemented the newly renovated interior with a “Black, Sparkly & Elegant” design. Learn ...
