The Prep Cook prepares all of our finest imported and locally sourced ingredients with centuries-old, artisan traditions to bring the definitive Neapolitan pizza experience to our guests. It is in the prep area where we combine the flour, water and yeast to make the dough that is certified as authentic Neapolitan. It’s also where we mill our tomatoes grown in soil rich with volcanic ash micronutrients near Naples to make our sauce, and it is where we cut and combine all our ingredients to prepare for a day and evening of exceptional pizza, pastas, salads, starters and desserts. Ultimately this position is responsible for executing our purpose of “Nourishing lives by sharing traditions, authentic food and love,” and providing a memorable guest experience to every guest. The way we accomplish this is through our adherence to Neapolitan traditions, following our proven recipes and systems, showing genuine care for our guests and teammates, and enjoying making people happy.
