"Cooking is a craft, I like to think, and a good cook is a craftsman—not an artist." - Anthony Bourdain

You are an experienced Chef; we can read that. But more than experience, we're looking for dynamic leadership attributes. Leaders in our kitchens function like coaches on a field, like directors on a set, like teachers in a classroom. You're even-tempered and can rise above the fray when it hits the fan. You can lead and inspire through your passion and willingness to share everything you know to be true about the craft of cooking.

You value teamwork, communication and constant progress. You are a student of the game, willing to lead and simultaneously be led. You understand the true spirit of hospitality; that we exist to serve not only our guests, but each other as well. You are looking to "raise the bar" personally and professionally, and are ready to do your best work yet.

The following outlines a few of the finer things we are hoping you encompass:

This position will report directly to the General Manager, and will be tasked with leading the daily operation of the kitchen and back of house under his guidance and mentorship. Sueno's programming is centered on a scratch masa program, featuring imported heirloom corn from Oaxaca and produced in house. The striking open kitchen will focus on wood-fired proteins and produce, served from an 8-foot centralized hearth.
