Job Details
At Rocket Farm Restaurants, the core philosophy that defines our culture is “We serve the person who is serving the guest.” Our culture is not something we act out on the floor of the restaurant. It starts with how we treat and serve one another in the kitchen – with dignity, respect, and care. We believe there should be no difference in how we treat and serve one another in the kitchen and how we treat and serve our guests in the dining room. We hope you agree and will consider joining us!
La Lucha offers a high energy, funky alternative to Superica next door with a unique and indulgent menu with influences from chef Ford Fry’s childhood memories of over-the-top dining at the San Jacinto Inn.
La Lucha is seeking for a high energy Sous Chef to join our dynamic team!
The Sous Chef manages the hourly, back-of-house staff and assists in the day-to-day operations of all areas of the kitchen including production, prep, special and private events, stewarding, purchasing and receiving. He/she will have a strong understanding and knowledge of various cooking methods and preparation techniques, ensuring all food is properly prepared and presented to guests in a timely manner. The Sous Chef will be able to effectively and professionally lead the kitchen in the absence of the Executive Chef.
