**AM Position** Some evening shifts for events, but we are primarily open 10am-6pm, Shifts begin between 8am-10am
We have an everchanging take-away menu which is updated weekly and our retail fridge & freezer are stocked with gourmet goods.

Our standards are extremely high; our customers expect the quality, consistency, and level of service Chef Taryn curated during her decade of cooking for Oprah Winfrey.
We are looking for a unicorn. We’re growing like crazy and we need someone to help keep this ship working seamlessly. Are you a fabulous chef and also quick with a helpful smile for front of house? Are you easygoing yet neurotic in the best way? Are you kind? Can you keep your ego in check and work as a team? Are you excited to collaborate on menus, marketing ideas & keep the creative juices flowing?
