Snooze – Who Are We?

Morning people! Yes, we are those people. We are a full-service breakfast restaurant, and we want each morning to feel like your weekend and happy hour rolled into one — no matter which side of noon it’s on. We’re the place where you can be you, and where our regulars are anything but. Everyone’s welcome at our table because the same goes for our people as it does for our dishes : the unexpected twists are what makes them so special.

The Head Chef Role at Snooze

As a Snooze Head Chef, you are responsible for ensuring the highest quality of food and standards in and out of the Heart of House (kitchen or BOH).  Your primary duties include leading all kitchen functions involving food purchasing, storage and inventory, preparation and overall adherence to Snooze quality, methods and safety and sanitation standards. You are the leader in training all Snoozers in methods of cooking, preparation, plate presentation, portion and cost control and cleanliness. It is your responsibility to efficiently staff and schedule your kitchen adequately to facilitate preparation and execute production while maintaining standard labor costs. Your goal is to maintain the “WOW” factor of Snooze food, while creating an environment that fosters creativity, education, and personal development.  While your main objectives revolve around the kitchen, you will collaborate closely with the Front of House to ensure a seamless flow of service, address guest feedback, and assist with opening and closing duties in the Front of House.
