Natasha De Bourg failed 'Below Deck' demands? Here's why guest Barrie Drewitt said 'should have hired more staff'
Chef Natasha De Bourg was not feeling it since Captain Glenn Shephard announced that the new guests are a family of nine. Daisy Kelliher and Gary King were equally surprised because they had never tended to such a large group on Parsifal III. And it didn't help when they met with the chef and presented their long list of demands. The family loves their steaks cooked differently, and as much as Natasha would love to live up to their expectations, the kitchen was a bit short-handed.
At one point, even the deck crew had to pitch in. Despite their best efforts, the crew was not able to put the meals together in time for the guests to enjoy. On 'Below Deck Sailing Yacht', guest Barrie Drewitt-Barlow complained that the food was delayed and he'd appreciate it if it could be served all at once. His tone on social media remained the same when he shared his experience with food on the luxury yacht.

"Sorry - not sorry, we want to eat as a family not spread out over an hour! If my customers want something I make sure it’s done, even if I have to hire new staff to make it happen," he posted on Instagram and added: "We didn’t just show up with nine guests, we booked the ship with the same amount of people we took, so knowing that, they should have got more staff in if one can’t cope! However, we only have one chef at home and she copes perfectly well cooking several dishes every day without compliant! Lol we still had the best time x #belowdecksailing."
From the preview clip dropped by the network, it is evident that Barrie doesn't let it go easily. In episode 5, the guests complain about food once more when Natasha whips up a batch of hollandaise sauce that doesn't sit well with them so much so that they wish their family chef was around to cook for them. Let's hope the chef's given a shot at redemption at least.
Unfortunately, the slip-up will not only impact the tip amount but may deepen the rift between Daisy and Natasha. When Daisy took a moment off work to share guests' feedback about the food with the Captain, Natasha walks in. Although she clarifies that there's "no problem" with a smile on her face, the green-room interview will see her pop off on Daisy.
