For those of you who know me, and those of you who don't...

I married Stephanie (a nurse I met on board the Caribbean Mercy) and we currently are packing to move back on the International Operations Center - base of Mercy Ships.

We head to the Africa Mercy in January. I as the Chief Cook and Stephanie working as a nurse (if she was here right now I would be a bit more specific). We are very excited about coming...which makes the process here long and drawn out. Sigh.

Anyways...my background is in Restaurant and Catering and I have worked on the Caribbean Mercy (most of my time was spent in that galley) a stint on the ANA (also as Chief Cook) and I had the pleasure of cooking with Audry on the Maiden Voyage of the Africa Mercy. (Don't make me post a picture of my certificate and coffee cup!!!)

All that being said, if you have some constructive criticism (be easy), questions, current AFM observations, or pertinent information to pass along to me (about the food, galley, wants, needs)...I will be interested to hear them out. As long as it is a good dialogue. Remember, I have been there, and I do know the Chief Steward/Food Manager so be kind...And know that he is working hard.

That's a good man you got there...he just needs more help. Give him some daily encouragement and/or a hand in the kitchen (of course make sure you follow proper protocal). Maybe sign up for a day in the kitchen/galley as your 'outreach' time...ever thought of that?

Send comments directly to me via my contact us page at tyroneandstephanie.com or thru the blog page. I would give you my email address but being on a post I may get spammed to death! Ha!

Please, no recipes...I got millions of my own. And the internet at my disposal. Did you know that some of those 'home' recipes just don't translate well for 400 to 500+ people. Yeah, go figure?
