Job Description

Counter: 9 seats; Table: 10 seats; VIP Room: 5 seats
This high-class tempura restaurant has been serving Manhattan for the past three years.

As many tempura restaurants have closed their doors here in Manhattan,
it is no exaggeration to say that we are the first to have been successfully accepted and sustained by our customers.

We are well-known for being a Michelin star restaurant, and are typically fully booked with reservations, so we are looking for kitchen staff who can skillfully work in a busy environment.

Aside from your duties as a chef, you will also be supporting our head chef with the below tasks:
food handling, basic preparations, cost control, and general management.

We expect no corners to be cut in regards to quality control,
and are looking to increase our daily proficiency and productivity.

We are looking for someone who can help to educate our other staff and make the best use of our ingredients while adhering to all of our company values.

Our customers should feel like they’ve experienced true Japanese hospitality that will linger in their hearts long after their meals.

※Candidate will need to carry objects up to about 15kg.
