Natick, Massachusetts – In the latest episode of Bravo’s popular reality show ‘Below Deck’ Season 11, viewers are introduced to Melinda Springer, a former cruise director with a penchant for adventure and a discerning palate. As the fifth primary charter guest, Melinda’s arrival promises both excitement and challenges for the crew aboard the luxury yacht.
Before embarking on her latest maritime escapade, Melinda honed her skills in the hospitality industry, showcasing her expertise in mixology and finance operations. Armed with a Bachelor of Science in business management from Becker College and a culinary arts certificate, Melinda brings a wealth of experience to the table.
However, it’s Melinda’s dietary preferences that steal the spotlight in this episode. With a laundry list of dislikes and allergies, including dairy, gluten, eggs, bananas, and hazelnuts, Chef Anthony Iracane and his team are faced with the daunting task of catering to her every culinary need.
Among Melinda’s preferences are green mint tea, coffee with brown sugar, and almond creamer. She harbors a distaste for raw tomatoes, eggplant, green peppers, honeydew melon, and seafood, particularly those with visible organs like mussels. Despite her aversion to seafood, Melinda recently transitioned to a pescatarian diet, opening up new culinary horizons.
Accompanying Melinda on this voyage is her husband, Noah, along with Gary, a fashion executive, and his girlfriend, none other than ‘The Real Housewives of New York City’ star, Jill Zarin. Their eclectic group formed bonds through their shared love of pickleball, a sport they discovered while traversing the United States.
As tensions rise in the galley and on deck, viewers can expect drama, delectable dishes, and delightful encounters as Melinda and her entourage set sail for St David. Don’t miss the latest episode of ‘Below Deck’ Season 11, airing every Monday at 9 pm ET on Bravo.
