The chef will work alongside another chef, alternating morning and evening shifts. The family appreciates dining at Michelin-level restaurants and prefers their chef to have experience with this caliber of cuisine.
The principals used to own high-end Michelin star establishments, so familiarity with such standards is essential. They enjoy eating out at restaurants such as Zuma, La Petite Maison, Coya, etc…
Occasional travel may be required, particularly to Europe during the summer, depending on the family’s vacation plans.
