We have an exciting opportunity to join this amazing kitchen family as Pastry Chef.
This award winning hotel has been operating at a 2 AA rosette level for the past 20+ years & are continuing to pursue their allusive 3rd rosette.
They are heavily integrated into the AA rosette mentorship & have frequent visits from the AA to ensure they are at the top of our game & are striving for that high level of consistency.
Their Head Chef, uses only the best produce from, in & around Cornwall & the south west, cooking seasonal fare with influences from his childhood, favourite dishes & classic flavours. His style is comfort food executed well. Underpinned by classic gastronomy & passion to see every dish his best. As they are a family, everybody is included, therefore, all of our chefs have a chance to have a dish on the menu, whether it be nibbles, starters, mains, desserts etc, even if you have a starting idea, the brigade will work together to create something unique.
In Pastry, they strive to make everything fresh. Therefore, Afternoon tea is a special affair & the top tier of the stand has to be 'top tier'. They also have a lunch, dinner, tasting & Sunday menu which all have a different offering. Each dish needs to be tried, tested & tasted! Along with method statement, ingredients, costs & an image of what the dishes should look like. Room biscuits & customer cakes are also tasks which need to be completed on a daily basis.
We are looking for someone with a positive attitude, who can execute tasks effectively & efficiently. Experience in a similar environment is needed, the right candidate will need to be able to complete day to day service with minimal faults, have mise-en-place to plate & be able to work with a fast paced ticketed system. The right individual needs to be enthusiastic with a passion for excellence. Strive for perfection, accept excellence.
The kitchen is fitted with gas solid tops, 6 burners & gas ovens. They also welcomed the addition of two rational XS ovens to pastry recently. We strive to make everything ourselves, from crisps, to scones, to cakes, to stocks, to individual dishes. The next person to come into our kitchen must be a team player, someone who will look out for the person next to them & help in all sections of the kitchen, from larder, garnish, meat & fish & even the kp section.
The role is based on a full time, 40 hour contract + Monthly Tronc + 24/7 365 Bupa mental health support. Live in is available from £250.00 per month
