No pressure. (Some pressure.)
What we’re looking for:
- Proven culinary leadership experience as a Chef de Cuisine, Executive Sous Chef, or similar role
- A serious passion for food, technique, and hospitality

- Experience in elevated, high-volume, chef-driven restaurant environments
- Deep understanding of kitchen financials, labor management, and cost controls
- Creativity balanced with discipline (yes, both matter)
- A palate for excellence and an eye for detail
- Someone who wants to chase recognition—not for ego, but because standards matter
Bonus points if:
- You understand what makes a restaurant Bib Gourmand-worthy: approachability, consistency, and exceptional quality
- You can coach cooks into chefs
- You believe mise en place is a lifestyle, not a task
- You know that “good enough” is usually not
