Full Job Description

Pastry Chef — Amara, BelmontPosition Summary

Amara is looking for a Pastry Chef to lead and execute a focused, seasonal dessert and bread program for a California restaurant with Mediterranean influence.

This is not a volume bakery job and not a decorative cake position. We need someone who understands flavor, restraint, texture, seasonality, and hospitality. The right person should be able to create desserts that feel elegant, soulful, and connected to Amara’s food — not generic restaurant desserts dropped onto the menu.

The Pastry Chef will be responsible for daily production, menu development, quality control, costing, prep organization, and execution of desserts, breads, brunch pastries, and special-event items.

Key ResponsibilitiesDessert Program

Develop and execute a tight, seasonal dessert menu that fits Amara’s identity:

California produce
Mediterranean flavors
Clean plating
Balanced sweetness
Use of nuts, citrus, stone fruit, olive oil, yogurt, honey, spices, herbs, chocolate, sesame, tahini, dates, figs, berries, and seasonal fruit
Desserts that are memorable but not overly complicated

Examples of the style we are looking for:

Olive oil cake with citrus and crème fraîche
Pistachio, cardamom, or rose-influenced desserts
Stone fruit galette or pavlova-style dessert
Labneh panna cotta
Chocolate dessert with tahini, sesame, or coffee
Seasonal sorbets, semifreddo, custards, tarts, or composed plated desserts

Bread & Savory Pastry Support

Support Amara’s bread identity, including:

Fresh pita or flatbread program
Brunch breads or pastries
Dinner rolls or seasonal bread service
Crackers, lavash, or accompaniments for dips, cheese, caviar, or charcuterie
Savory brunch items when needed

Production & Execution

Prepare daily pastry mise en place
Maintain consistency in recipes, portioning, plating, and quality
Manage prep lists and par levels
Work cleanly and efficiently
Maintain proper storage, labeling, FIFO, and sanitation standards
Ensure all desserts are service-ready before each shift
Communicate clearly with the chef and service team about menu changes, allergens, and availability

Menu Development & Cost Control

Create recipes with proper yields and portion sizes
Cost out menu items accurately
Minimize waste
Use seasonal ingredients intelligently
Build desserts that are both beautiful and profitable
Help create specials for holidays, private events, brunch, and tasting menus

Team & Culture

Work collaboratively with the chef, sous chefs, and front-of-house team
Train cooks or prep team members on pastry items when needed
Maintain high standards without drama
Take feedback professionally
Bring creativity, but also discipline and consistency

QualificationsRequired

Minimum 2–4 years pastry experience in a restaurant, hotel, bakery, or fine-casual/fine-dining environment
Strong understanding of baking fundamentals
Ability to execute plated desserts during service
Ability to follow and create recipes
Strong knife skills and prep discipline
Understanding of allergens, gluten, dairy, nuts, and dietary restrictions
Ability to work independently
Clean, organized, and reliable
Able to lift 40 lbs and stand for extended periods

Preferred

Experience with Mediterranean, California, or seasonal cuisine
Experience with laminated dough, tarts, custards, cakes, ice creams, sorbets, breads, or flatbreads
Experience costing recipes
Experience working in a restaurant kitchen rather than only a retail bakery
Ability to help with brunch pastry and private events

Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate is creative but practical.

They understand that Amara does not need twelve desserts. We need four or five excellent ones that guests remember, servers can sell, and the kitchen can execute consistently.

They should care about ingredients, but also understand food cost. They should be able to make something beautiful without turning every dessert into a labor trap. They should know when to add complexity and when to pull back.

We are looking for someone who can help build a dessert program that feels like Amara: warm, seasonal, ingredient-driven, generous, polished, and a little unexpected.

Schedule

Full-time or strong part-time depending on experience and availability
Weekends required
Morning/daytime prep shifts with some evening service support as needed
Holiday and private-event availability required

Compensation

Competitive hourly or salary compensation based on experience.

Final pay will depend on skill level, schedule, leadership ability, and whether the role includes menu development, bread production, brunch support, and event execution.

How to Apply

Please send:

Resume
A brief note about your pastry style
Photos of recent desserts or pastry work, if available
Availability
References from previous kitchens or pastry programs

Pay: $21.00 - $27.00 per hour

Benefits:

401(k)
Dental insurance
Flexible schedule
Health insurance
Paid time off
Store discount
Vision insurance

Work Location: In person
