Are you a chef who wants to work with exceptional ingredients, refined dishes and an experienced chef with a Michelin-starred background? At an iconic, historic luxury hotel in Amsterdam East, you'll have the opportunity to help shape the culinary future of a restaurant with serious ambitions.
The Head Chef has a clear vision: to bring the restaurant back to the culinary level it deserves. To achieve this, he is looking for ambitious, professionally trained chefs who take pride in their craft, are eager to learn and want to prove what they're capable of.
An exceptional kitchen in an iconic location
You'll be working in a historic luxury hotel near Amsterdam's city centre, a remarkable setting with a rich history and a restaurant entering a new culinary chapter.
The menu combines classical cooking techniques with distinctive flavour combinations. Think sea bass ceviche with oyster and sea herbs, red gurnard with lardo and jus à la bécasse, wild duck with confit orange, and Chateaubriand of Simmental beef.
Working alongside a chef with Michelin-starred experience, you'll contribute to the ambition of putting this restaurant firmly back on the culinary map.
