An organic food lover, awesomeness, people and planet (sometimes profit) person
Exciting things are about to happen within Conscious Hotels! The next two years we will grow with no less than 2 hotels in Amsterdam. Besides the existing Conscious Hotel Vondelpark and Conscious Hotel Museum Square, our 3rd hotel will open in the end of 2016 in Amsterdam; the 4th hotel will open beginning of 2018.
And within this new 3rd hotel, new F&B outlets are taking shape: Restaurant Moer and coffee- and Eco- pastry bar Sticky Fingers.
As a (demi-)chef de partie, you love organic local ingredients. No frequent flyer figs. No air mile apples. Food grown with love bought straight from a man called Han. Not an industrial chemist called Clemens synthesizing delivered-by-drone strawberries out of monosodiumwhoknowswhatgoesintoit. You don’t touch that…
You like to do your thing in public. Confident you can satisfy up to 100 guests for lunch and every night. Because we’re not looking for some shy spoon juggler here. Oh, no. We’re looking for performers. In our kitchen, you’re loving the real veg. High fiber, low fat, great taste. We’re not talking industrial supermarket veg, here - same size, same colour, same same same. Nope, you love veg just the way it comes. Beetroot with a big booty? Shake that ass our way, baby. You still love your meat (organic). You still get frisky for fish (sustainable). You’re just talking a hint of moderation so that guilty pleasure.
As we strive to have a full restaurant every day of the week you need to be able to cope with the stress and pressure; but that’s part of what makes this job fun, right? Of course being ready for service means a great M.E.P. and the kitchen needs to be properly cleaned and stocked, so that is your job too. You make sure the kitchen area is tidy, so you and your colleagues don’t trip over anything hazardous. We don’t want them to get hurt.
Opening a restaurant is like giving birth, except instead of just popping out a baby, you're dealing with new menus and new employees and new equipment and permits and inspections and a million other things normal people never even think about. You are not someone content with doing the same thing day after day, you actually thrive when things get hectic. Fire up the grill!
