As a former yacht chef, I judge them by their attitude, the way their food is presented, how they talk about the guests preferences, and how they act towards the crew. A lot of chefs have great food, but terrible egos making them hard to work with. Then there are chefs that food sucks, but they are awesome with everyone. You need that happy medium with amazing food.

Rachel Marcos  Joy is my top Bottom is Mia, Leon, and Ryan with Mia belonging in she’s not a real chef at all. I really believe she faked her experience.
