"I'm really psyched for this boat trip," Kathy said in an interview prior to the excursion. "I've hired Chef Brian Malarkey, who's a celebrity chef, who is supposed to be incredible."

Of course, the Bravo's Top Chef alum's cooking did not disappoint. After he brought out "amazing bluefin tuna, caught locally," crispy rice with a kimchi vinaigrette, and duck and fig, Lisa declared, "This is some of the best food we've ever had." Garcelle agreed, exclaiming, "Absolutely!"  Brian, who was wearing a face mask, responded, "I'm smiling under here."

In August 2020, Brian, whose restaurants include Herb & Sea, Herb & Wood, Herb & Ranch, and Anime, opened up to BravoTV.com about the "day-to-day battle" of running eateries amid the COVID-19 pandemic. "Our industry has completely changed," he said, noting that teaching virtual cooking classes had been "a great opportunity that we wouldn't have thought of before."

"That might be the best thing that’s come out of this all for me," he continued. "I think it’s something we’re going to have for a long time and something that’s going to stick."
