THE most under appreciated job in the world, right next to garbage man, is the offshore chef/cook. I was priveleged enough to work for a few offshore platforms, and in the mountains of Colorado. Some crews always tried to show some form of appreciation, but for the most part, didn't matter how you cooked, you were looked down on and treated as third class. Good to see this uplifting vid. I was honored to work for companies like BP, Shell, and some others... and didn't have to put up with alot of negativity, like others I've seen... but it's a rough, intense difficult job, and the pay is usually no better than Walmart.
Michael Reynolds , huh don't remember it buddy ,sorry I struck a nerve ,if i said something wrong I apologize. Mostly just kidding. However not about these great meal's , not quite what we feed hard working men .
I can definitely understand that. I work at a very remote mine site (roughly 500kms to the nearest town with more than 1000 people), so a fairly similar situation. I try not to complain because I know how little the chef is payed and I also know what an absolute pittance they are allocated for ingredients per person per day, but at the same time it is very hard for me to show any appreciation when the food is so terrible. End of the day those big catering companies like Sodexo/ISS etc are ruthless, and unfortunately a lot of mining/resource companies will just pay whatever is cheapest when it comes to workers food/accomodation costs.
That chef is a REAL chef. Fat, jolly, friendly, doesn't insult his workers. Seems like a real nice guy that I'd love to have a drink with and discuss dishes.
thanks for sharing, i worked for 15 years onboard passenger cruiseships, i always wondered how different cargo ship's food was. I can tell you this, back in the 90s, cruiseship food was FANTASTIC, when only upper middle class were able to travel, there was enough money to have Italian cooks for the crew. I can honestly say, what Princess Cruises serves now to their passengers is not as good as the food we use to eat as crew members, it was that good, we used to complain, imagine that, how naive and stupid we were.
Like most things in life you raise yourself or lower yourself or your standards to the status quo. Status quo is the majority in any segment of life. You get more "poor people" in this case and you lower your standards to theirs. It is just normal to them and they see no difference. By the way, poor people do not go on cruises. They are simply less well off than rich people. Like in schools, integration caused a tremendous downgrade to the public school system in the US. The public schools had to lower their standards in order to socially promote the retards from the shall we say less intelligent sections of town.
Jeff Stanley the reason why schools downgraded is because s soon as integration happens, rich people move away and take all the resources away fucking up everything. Then you get bum ass teachers who are only there for a check instead of education. The reason education is a failure in the us is because we fail the educators and educated.
How can he know the food is good if you don’t taste it? It seems actually impossible to cook properly. Literally every cooking class, from the community center to le cordon bleu will tell you how important tasting the food is.
Guess what. Hes owned by Dreamworks. Make sure to check Home is theaters this fall.IGN says best soundtrack of any movie in the lastcetutey. Make sure to look up the car scene. Bad da da da de da!
I have watched this multiple times over the years- both for my love of food & cooking, and ships... i would love to take a Cargo Ship trip, I just don't really see it happening in my life ... but honestly those meals looked great... those mushrooms, that "cheesy pasta", the rolls & bread, even the breakfast pizza.. looked more like a Cruise ship food lol. Awesome... thanks & take care.
The hardest job on the ship I’m a Chief Cook been going to sea for 42 years. As we say there’s 30 chefs on the ship and they put the worse 1 in the galley I sometimes have to feed up to 600 with my chefs our allowance is £3.92 per person per day 😱👨🍳👨🍳
I can only imagine what that's like... I'm an American but try to keep up with our Brothers & Sisters in the UK, and there was an outstanding documentary about HMS Turbulent, a nuclear submarine, and they allowed that SouperDouchebag chef Heston Blumenthal try to revamp their food program... and the CO & XO had to explain to them, the 2-Pound-ish price per person wasn't per MEAL, it was PER DAY, and it was literally less money than the government allocated per PRISONER food per day... and oh yeah, the Submarine food is supposed to be both the Best. and the MOST. So you must have a hard job, much respect from a regular drunken Yank bro.
Well lets say that eating on a cargo ship is most of the time bad (im a deck officer) but last contract for 2 months i had an amazing chef who transformed all the food in something delicious. It's skill and passion that makes the difference.
That's OK if you're on "dayjob" while at sea 'cause you get an extra hour's sleep, but if you do watches the extra hour gets divided by 3 and you do 20 minutes extra per watch. When you "advance clocks" it's the other way round.
The table you described as where the Captain and various ship's officers would eat would be called the Officer's table or the Captain's table. I made a faux pas by sitting in the crew's mess to eat, when, unbeknownst to me, I was supposed to be at the officer's table. I was fine where I was, but when the waiter told me for the third time that if I sat "over there", he would be happy to serve me. After the third time (I'm dense) I realized that I wasn't so much being invited as instructed. The food was more Western than the African food the crew was served. I didn't actually care as I had missed the first two meals that day due to timing issues and travel.
As a professional cook, I'd also want to do my best work if I'm going to be stuck on a ship at sea with people who have to eat my cooking. But this guy looks like what I'd expect from an Italian chef and the food looks absolutely delicious.
I went to sea on a French cable layer converted to a PSV, the Isle de Batz. Man they even baked cakes in the galley along with buns fresh every day. The food was awesome, top French cuisine.
That was very interesting and informative. Those meals were making my mouth water. I think the work would be hard and it makes sense for them to feed the workers well. That was not what I was thinking they would be feeding the workers, I was thinking more like a military mess hall but wow, I want to go work on ne of those ships now lol... Thank you for your video, Now I am starving lol...…..
In a Shorebased 4star joint, you'd pay a weeks wages for food like this, yumtious, lucky guys on this ship. I've eaten 'Shipboard on the Scottish Ben Line Steamers (Some years ago) great tucker, wholesome and delicious.
I've done 3 trans Atlantic cruises, though not on a cargo ship. For some reason being at sea for so long you really look forward to your meals a lot more than you do on land.
I have been working on a Dutch cargo vessel. Only $3.80 a day to feed a hard working sailor. Within 6 months I lost 15kg of weight. No bottled drinking water nor juice or soda available. Because I am no slave, I quit.
Great video, & I love that you added the extra info towards the end, being that Hugh is vegetarian.... I'm about 4 months into being newly vegan, and 100% vegetarian so i found that to be my fav part about the video!!! ..another random question, are you guys the only visitors on the ship or have you met anybody else traveling on the same ship?? I'm deff enjoying these videos!! #keepGoing HAHA
CineSkies , no more keep going , they starved to death ! And the chief eat what was left. Said he needed more work energy.. How you doings. A vegetarian ! Want some mystery food ? Ha ha some of this stiff is bad entertainment. So funny.
..not sure if your making a joke about me or the video, or if u were looking for an actual convo.. i assume ur just trying to be funny, as u have no default pic and no content.. Good luck to u.
I've had an up and down relationship with Kashrut, I no longer keep any form of kosher really. Just avoid eating pork. It's something is would like to do in the future, when my life is more stable!.
Do not know how i found this but i love it fantastic video love the way it is filmed so much insight into the way of life , loved that chef, what a star ......
@@sentenza5766 Carbs, protein and fat tho! A combination of those two... Try to eat say just pasta with not much protein, you'll be hungry a hour after eating.
I worked onboard a dredge one summer. Talk about GREAT food! Had a wonderful cajaun chef! Every other Thursday was steak, or seafood dinner - all you can eat. Odd how the safety inspectors always showed up on Thursday's at lunch time. LOL!
It will surprise you to know that there are many Jews in India . They are a minority but yes they are here. Some refer to them as the lost tribe, but I might be wrong.
I had to go get a snack, made me hungry. Good you can go Vegan but looks like weight loss and lowering your cholesterol is out. How do you upload your videos when you are underway, do you have internet? Another great video :-)
I always felt a little bad for the galley staff when I was at sea. We would land up somewhere cool, go ashore but they had to go back to the ship to work at mid afternoon to work on the evening meal.
I do volunteer work driving seafarers from the cargo ships (coal, bauxite, alumina etc.) and I guarantee that they never eat as well as you did in this video. I congratulate you on the ship owners for actually providing good quality food and someone who can cook it properly.
They usually serve meals and snacks in between meals because the workers have shifts around the clock. So the pizza is actually a really thoughtful gesture for a worker who might be having his dinner during breakfast hours and not in the mood for donuts. No need to be ignorant.
hy there traveling clatt, you guys are so lucky ! to have a chef like that, that can make great tasting food ! and it looks SOOO ! good to, dam wish I could work on a ship like that !! I'll be looking for more vids of your Adventures. good luck
Worked on a Ukrainen crewed ship where a couple times we had fish heads with onion & garlic for breakfast,the food was absolutely shocking on that vessel,think they were feeding them for less than 40p a day,but the cook & all the crew were the nicest people you could meet,shared everything.
“American beard” never heard that one before. You are assuming the bread that thousands of bakers across all of the US make is similar and that there aren’t thousands of differing types of bread. I’ve had complete crap bread and some bread that is to die for in the US as I’m sure you can find in any other country
Excuse me mate, but the fat job is not a chef, he is a cook! That is a ship not Hotel Astoria! I would gladly eat pizza for breaky but not pizza AND doughnuts! In all the years I was a merchant marine I never saw pizza on a ship's menu! The menu was usually made by the chief steward who was the boss of the cook!
Ya know ..... I remember those hipster dweebs who did the "Occupy Wall Street" thing - as well as all the Bernie-Bros who think they will somehow "bring down" capitalism ..... they need a peek at this dude's ship as well as the thousands of mammoth technological achievements which go serenely on their missions around the world! The hipsters are little more than fleas on the posterior of achievement.
Donuts and pizza for breakfast that's the meal of champions right there, but honestly that's probably a great high sugar high calorie high protein meal for the crew to get them through the morning without them going hungry before lunch, in my job you have to pack a large lunch even for a 8 hour day, you just sweat and burn through the calories so quickly that you gotta have something with a lot of sugar protein salt and carbs
I have worked for 35 years in hotels and catering, I first trained as a chef then went back and did management, you have a cook on board not a chef, cacky pasta and pizza is no way representative of Italian food.
Thanks for the comment. Yeah Pizza Pasta definitely not Italian. The chef or let me the cook how you put which was born and raised and learned to cook in Italy is definitely not Italian! Great comment precciate ya. Love hugs and kisses from your friendly neighborhood clatt.
Is a cargo ship. Not an ocean liner. Limited room and resources on board so food is improvised. Believe me, when options are limited, this is good stuff and you eat however you can.
Donuts are plain yeast bread with a tiny bit of sugar in the dough(add some sugar to the water and dissolve before making the bread dough). That makes Sweet Rolls, Sweet Yeast Rolls, or Donuts. Let it rise, punch it down and re-loaf. Let it rise, punch it down, roll it out thumb thickness. Cut it and place on screen, cover it with a plastic bag but it is best to put the screens in a proofer (a proofer is s warming box with a pan of water in the bottom to slightly steam) and let it rise and then fry it. When you see the under side of the ring turning tan-light brown, turn it over and let it fry until you see the underside of the ring turn tan-light brown and pull it. Let it cool for about 1 minutes and then glaze. all wood drum sticks or 12 inch dowel rods are good turners. (drum sticks as in a drum set in a music band) Bakers secret tip. Any standard size box of cake mix or brownie mix will make cookies. 1 large egg, 1 stick of butter or margarine, mix it and spoon out the plops on a greased cookie sheet. Bake at about 350 degrees Fahrenheit (176 Celsius)for about 7 to 8 minutes. Watch them because some ovens are hotter and may over cook. If they look almost done, pull them and they will be chewy cookies, so maybe 6 to 7 minutes for chewy.
My father was cook in the merchant navy and fried a lot of food. You might refer to him as a friar. I like to think of him as an international cereal killer.
On British registered ships when you sign articles there's a list of what you are entitled to the menus are usually made by the ship's purser or chief Stewart he is the main organiser for the catering department and ordering of supplies for domestic use ie food cleaning and laundry services.
The Chef was the definition of cool. He’s lived, he’s traveled, he’s eaten.

Thats always good to have a chef who really likes food.
Yes1 Its great!
paraglide01 , except , when he eats it all.
also kinda bad to have a chef who can have a heart attack at any moment on a ship far away from land

That must be a challenge, particularly if people insist on meat driven meals. Do you get the wholesale discounts while provisioning, at least?

It always makes sense to make friends with the chef/cook.
As a seafarer this is not what happens on all vessels, very dependant on size, company and if there are any guests on board or not.

Your sign language is almost as good as your Spanish
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Funny thing is Italians can understand Spaniard spanish
he said he worked in Mexico i think? maybe Clatt knew that?
ambas idiomas não são as mesmas idiomas
This is better than what I eat. Actually even better than what I eat out most.
I'm curious, with the meals on a schedule, how does the ship handle crossing time zones?
That's OK if you're on "dayjob" while at sea 'cause you get an extra hour's sleep, but if you do watches the extra hour gets divided by 3 and you do 20 minutes extra per watch. When you "advance clocks" it's the other way round.
I would have thought they used Greenwich mean time GMT aka Zulu time
GMT
I think things varies a bit, but on the ships i have been on you go after the ships clock so it ain't affected over different time zones.
Dude this has got to be the lamest question you could of possibly asked
The table you described as where the Captain and various ship's officers would eat would be called the Officer's table or the Captain's table. I made a faux pas by sitting in the crew's mess to eat, when, unbeknownst to me, I was supposed to be at the officer's table.

I didn't actually care as I had missed the first two meals that day due to timing issues and travel.
the moment i saw that chef. i saw all i needed to know hahaha
This video was in my recommend,good thing it did,I love food,cool video
Looks better than some cruise ship food.
Oh dude its really good stuff
You must be going on some really crappy cruise lines then guy cause cruise ship food is really good
I went on a shitty cruise and the only thing that was quality was the food, what are you talking about
You couldn't pay me to board those cattle boats.. well.. I guess you could pay me.. that's good wages..
I've only taken royal Caribbean so even the least good stuff is the best. If it's carnival then I could understand.
I have no idea how I found this video. But the enjoyment I got from taking a look into the dining of cargo ships is great. Thanks!
Haha my pleasure
The Vatican owns that shipping line “Grimaldi”
Nice hearty meals! The chef knows how to keep the belly happy! I want some!!!
I didn’t know you could book passage on board a cargo ship & travel.

“American beard” never heard that one before. You are assuming the bread that thousands of bakers across all of the US make is similar and that there aren’t thousands of differing types of bread. I’ve had complete crap bread and some bread that is to die for in the US as I’m sure you can find in any other country
Very interesting,on my bucket list of things to do, Australia to America
Excuse me mate, but the fat job is not a chef, he is a cook! That is a ship not Hotel Astoria! I would gladly eat pizza for breaky but not pizza AND doughnuts! In all the years I was a merchant marine I never saw pizza on a ship's menu! The menu was usually made by the chief steward who was the boss of the cook!
Thanks guys. Have had to put my Vegan diet on hold with my travels recently. Much regards
mypleasure!
Ya know ..... I remember those hipster dweebs who did the "Occupy Wall Street" thing - as well as all the Bernie-Bros who think they will somehow "bring down" capitalism ..... they need a peek at this dude's ship as well as the thousands of mammoth technological achievements which go serenely on their missions around the world! The hipsters are little more than fleas on the posterior of achievement.
Donuts and pizza for breakfast that's the meal of champions right there, but honestly that's probably a great high sugar high calorie high protein meal for the crew to get them through the morning without them going hungry before lunch, in my job you have to pack a large lunch even for a 8 hour day, you just sweat and burn through the calories so quickly that you gotta have something with a lot of sugar protein salt and carbs
I have worked for 35 years in hotels and catering, I first trained as a chef then went back and did management, you have a cook on board not a chef, cacky pasta and pizza is no way representative of Italian food.
Thanks for the comment. Yeah Pizza Pasta definitely not Italian. The chef or let me the cook how you put which was born and raised and learned to cook in Italy is definitely not Italian! Great comment precciate ya. Love hugs and kisses from your friendly neighborhood clatt.
Fair comment, however for € 80 per night bed & full board, it's good value for budget travel.
TheTravelingClatt is
That looks like a real Chef!
Penne eaten with a knife, what a sin!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Food ignorants
Thanks Kim nice comment
Is a cargo ship. Not an ocean liner. Limited room and resources on board so food is improvised. Believe me, when options are limited, this is good stuff and you eat however you can.
Shut up Kim, you bitch
That's actually rigatoni, not penne.
Kim Miranda You most likely use your fingers, and who knows where your fingers have been.
Loved the interview, this young person is a true diplomat. He'll have his own show before too long.
I LOVE U!
Not gonna lie this good looked like garbage
naw. the garbage is what they feed the rest of the crew.
How do I apply for a job on this ship??
Looks just as good as anything served at any over priced restaurant.
Donuts are plain yeast bread with a tiny bit of sugar in the dough(add some sugar to the water and dissolve before making the bread dough). That makes Sweet Rolls, Sweet Yeast Rolls, or Donuts. Let it rise, punch it down and re-loaf. Let it rise, punch it down, roll it out thumb thickness. Cut it and place on screen, cover it with a plastic bag but it is best to put the screens in a proofer (a proofer is s warming box with a pan of water in the bottom to slightly steam) and let it rise and then fry it. When you see the under side of the ring turning tan-light brown, turn it over and let it fry until you see the underside of the ring turn tan-light brown and pull it. Let it cool for about 1 minutes and then glaze. all wood drum sticks or 12 inch dowel rods are good turners. (drum sticks as in a drum set in a music band)
Bakers secret tip.
Any standard size box of cake mix or brownie mix will make cookies. 1 large egg, 1 stick of butter or margarine, mix it and spoon out the plops on a greased cookie sheet. Bake at about 350 degrees Fahrenheit (176 Celsius)for about 7 to 8 minutes. Watch them because some ovens are hotter and may over cook. If they look almost done, pull them and they will be chewy cookies, so maybe 6 to 7 minutes for chewy.
I can't believe you guys have breakfast pizzas, haven't had one since middle school
Most appreciative people I've ever cooked for were tuna boat crews...
My father was cook in the merchant navy and fried a lot of food. You might refer to him as a friar. I like to think of him as an international cereal killer.
This may be a silly question but how does one travel on a cargo ship?
Thanks for the video!! Deserve more views! :)
THANK YOU! Im so happy with the amount of people watching tho!
Very cool!!! you guys rock!
How much is the cost to ride on the cargo ship? Great video and food I like it.
On British registered ships when you sign articles there's a list of what you are entitled to the menus are usually made by the ship's purser or chief Stewart he is the main organiser for the catering department and ordering of supplies for domestic use ie food cleaning and laundry services.
I think your chef is secretly eating all the good stuff
That chefs a walking time bomb.
So many knowledgeable people in these comments
Good chef...crew always happy
Great video. Very interesting to see the food onboard. Thanks Clatt
You got it Shanon as long as you keep coming back Ill keep uploading friend :D
