What are the responsibilities and job description for the Prep Cook position at Grand Lux Cafe?
Overview
With more than 200 dishes made fresh from scratch every day, our prep cooks prepare and portion fresh ingredients and hundreds of prep recipes for use in our delicious dishes. Whether you’re rolling the won ton wrapper for the Buffalo Chicken Rolls or preparing the shrimp for the shrimp scampi, you’ll learn a wide range of culinary techniques and skills in a professional, fast-paced kitchen.
What We're Looking For
Inspired by Italian trattorias, French bistros and the grand cafes and pastry shops of Vienna, we’re known for our in-house bakery, upscale casual hospitality and fresh-from-scratch menu, but we’re most proud of being named to the Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For® list since 2014. With 47,500 staff members across more than 300 restaurants – including The Cheesecake Factory, North Italia, Grand Lux Cafe, Social Monk and Fox Restaurant concepts – our people-centered culture offers something for everyone.
We are an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to creating an inclusive workplace for all. We welcome applicants from a wide variety of identities, ideas, perspectives, and experiences and encourage people from underrepresented backgrounds to apply. Grand Lux Cafe offers reasonable accommodations to job applicants with disabilities.
