Chef serves presidential meals on ship

By Bob Mackin Contributing Writer

NORTH Vancouver chef James Kennedy had a thousand points of good luck early this month.

One of Kennedy's former students, now chef on West Vancouver multi-millionaire Jim Pattison's yacht, sustained a knee injury and a replace- ment was needed quickly, A very important passenger was set to sail on the Nova Spirit none other than former U.S. President George Bush.

wife’s very nice. They ‘knew how to eat and they were very thankful.” :

Kennedy spent six days on the job, including the four: day excursion with the famous guest from Texas. He strived to compile a diverse menu for Bush, “to give him a chance to have a good rep- resentation of the foods of the area.”

He did have his prefer- ences, though.

“It was quite an experience, I thought it would be more stressful.”
