Background: For the past ten years, Victoria Allman has traveled the world aboard a luxury yacht; as a chef. Her food-related adventures will delight any audience interested in travel, yachts, adventure, and above all, exotic cultures and cuisine. The stories of this culinary odyssey are clearly told in her memoir/cookbook Sea Fare: A Chef's Journey Across the Ocean. ‘’Sea Fare is filled with colorful characters and food-driven escapades,’’ notes Victoria. ‘’I wanted to bring to life the glamorous and adventurous world of yachting from the perspective of a chef responsible for buying and storing food at sea, catching and preparing fresh fish right out of the ocean, and procuring food – and recipes – from the natives in the places we visited.’’ This engaging guest offers your audience a chance to escape to some of the more exotic locales of the world from the comfort of their homes.
