Looking for: career minded cooks
 

Hey guys,
just wondering if there are any cooks on here with interest in pursuing a career in culinary. I'm looking for 2 good cooks to work at an award winning restaurant. Focused on small suppliers and working with local farmers in summer for great fresh produce. We also do whole animal butchery, and work with humanely raised animals. Feature sheets change nightly and the opportunity for some creative input is there. We don't need someone with a crazy amount of experience if their attitude is right.
Its a very respectful and laid back kitchen environment. We are extremely professional, and very busy, but I'm extremely adamant about the workplace remaining enjoyable.
Wage is dependant on experience, but is quite fair for the restaurant industry and tips are consistently high. Also, you won't be expected to work ridiculous long hours like in some restaurants. Its a 40 hour work week, almost never more, and almost never less.
PM me if interested.

Thanks,
West

hmmm

btw whats a 40 hour week

It's what I used to work before I took a "promotion.":drunk:

gdi, read cook as cock and instantly thought this was for some adult film.

I wish.... I don't have the length to be in porn.

Suck it, RevScene. You wannabe cooks think you can cook, but your experience got nothing on me. :fuckyea:

I am gonna kill this!

I'll tell you what. Come in for a 3 month stage and we can negotiate terms afterwards depending on performance. Worst case scenario you can say I slapped you with a full side of ling cod on your resume.

Looking for one more person again.

i will forward this to a friend

Very much appreciated.

Do you have any more details of the job and location? I will forward this off to a friend.

The restaurant is in yaletown. As for other info, I've provided what I hoped would be enough info in the first post, but have no problem answering any other specifics.
Going to go teach two of my chef de parties how to butcher pigs today incase anyone questions the whole animal butchery comment in the first post.:fullofwin:
Lots of restaurants like to bullshit with those "made from scratch" lines, but I'm serious when I say it.

Still looking for one spot to be filled. Lots of people applying, but no good fits. Looking for people who want to progress in the career.

:accepted:

bcrdukes only knows how to make coffee.


STFU bcrdukes

Bumping this up again.
Summer strikes and these young bucks want to travel. Cho, wanna come butcher some whole halibuts, salmon and pigs on the regular?
Menu changes every 3 months. Feature sheet has 8-10 items on it a day.

And of course you knew I woukd read this


Nah im fine making 100+ chicken lettuce wraps

You wouldn't be reading this if that was true young grasshopper.

Looking for one person again. Good opportunity for someone looking to work day shifts as I've got that option open.

Crap... i read the title as "Looking for Career Minded Crooks".
I was hoping to change my career to the exciting field of big-money heists. :(
