Halifax, Canada Bird's Nest Cafe Full time

Are the late restaurant nights and hot kitchens getting to be tiresome and unfulfilling? Perhaps it's time for a fresh change. Bird's Nest Cafe is a 40-seat restaurant in the heart of downtown Halifax that serves fresh and fast breakfasts, lunches, and amazing coffee.

The cafe is open Monday through Friday from 8:00am to 3:00pm, and Saturday from 9am to 2pm. All of our shifts are daytime shifts, scheduled no later than 6pm.

Position description:
We're hiring a well-versed cook who can assemble prep and prepare dishes from our cafe and catering menus.

- Prepping and executing various dishes before and during breakfast and lunch service.
- Greeting and interacting pleasantly with customers, as our service kitchen is open.
- Keep your work station pristinely clean and restocked.
- Prepping menu items for service and catering.
- Preparing your own prep list in addition to tasks assigned to you by your co-workers.
