2 enthusiastic chefs wanted!

De Stadskantine hosts monthly restaurant nights in four Leeuwarden neighbourhoods. Guests get a healthy and nutritious three-course meal for € 8.00 and a lot of fun. Connecting people through good food is the main goal of the Stadskantine. Many friendships have already been made at the Stammtafels. The evenings are open to everyone, and we do our utmost to be a nice place for all guests.

The City Canteen is a partnership between the City Canteen Foundation and Amaryllis. Every restaurant night is supported by professionals from Amaryllis. Partly because of this, we are a very colourful and close-knit City Canteen family.

As a chef at The City Canteen, you will devise the menu together with your venue colleagues. We serve our visitors a three-course dinner at a budget price.

• You cook as much as possible with fresh ingredients (meat and vegetarian menu)
• You will be supported by volunteer kitchen staff and hosts who serve the food.
• You will manage the activities in the kitchen. This is broad in terms of responsibilities: Preparing purchases and sending out the volunteers, planning the work and supervising mis en place, preparing the dishes together, collaborating with head waiters in the restaurant and ensuring hygiene in the kitchen.
• Locations are Aldlan, 't knooppunt, Ruiterskwartier and Westeinde. Choice of location is by mutual agreement.

• You will become part of the cosy, inclusive City Canteen family. On the regular restaurant day, your food and drinks are arranged.
• It is no problem if you are not an 'average chef' and/or do not yet speak the language very well. We offer all volunteers space to find their place in our team.
• You will always work with other volunteers, and there is a chef on hand to introduce you to the site.
• We occasionally have cosy get-togethers with all the volunteers at the City Canteen.

You are team-oriented, like to lead by example and love a clean kitchen. In addition, you have the following ingredients:

• You have affinity and experience of cooking in a professional kitchen.
• You are able to manage the kitchen team.
• You design the menu creatively, within the set budget.
• You are presentable and guest-oriented.
• You are available at least once a month from 14:00- 21:00 to give direction to our restaurant team (on a di, wo or do).
• You enjoy giving guests an enjoyable evening.
• After an introductory period of 3 months, you are ready to join the City canteen family for a longer period of time.
