Being a Head Chef at Young's:

We believe every pub should be different.  This means that you'll be writing your own recipes that match the food vision of your business using fresh seasonal ingredients.   The food vision could be all about showcasing local produce, country pub classics, seafood, small plates and sharers, dry-aged meat - each pub is different and its up to you as head chef to put your own creative stamp on that vision.   We work with fresh, seasonal produce, so the menu should constantly evolve to showcase these fantastic ingredients when they are at their best.  Premium fresh food crafted by skilled chefs in Premium Pubs .
