Sous chef - babylon the hague

About the job Do you think about food all day, look at recipes and follow all the popular food blogs? Do you enjoy working with your colleagues to make sure the breakfast buffet is well stocked, lunch is beautifully presented, and our guests can enjoy delicious dishes in the evening? Then we are looking for you!

What will you be doing? In our kitchen, no two days are the same, and that's what makes your job so exciting! Together with the chef, you'll go through the latest dishes on the menu. Then you carefully prepare the mise en place so that you and your colleagues can start lunch or dinner well-prepared. You eagerly prepare dishes that are beautifully presented. You talk to some satisfied guests, and at the end of the day you already have ideas on how to make certain dishes even tastier or present them differently.
