Enforce strict adherence to health and safety regulations within the kitchen.

Conduct regular inspections to maintain impeccable cleanliness and hygiene standards.

Work closely with the Chef de Cuisine to execute the culinary vision of the company, maintaining consistency and creativity in offerings.

Follow standardized recipes and guidelines to prepare and cook menu items.

Assist in managing inventory levels, placing orders, and implementing strategies to minimize waste.
