Want to be our new Sous Chef?! Drop us a resume! Even better if you do it in person. Worse if you drop it during the dinner rush.

👨🏻‍🍳We don't take on a lot of external catering but last night was a gig that was way too important to pass up! Yesterday we had the privilege of catering for PCL Construction at the newly constructed Cliff Heating & Cooling Plant in the parliamentary precinct. The REALLY cool part about it is that my incredibly talented and artistic, architectural wizzard of a wife Tessa Kampman was the lead Design Architect on the project with her wicked awesome team at bbb architects ottawa inc.. Although we spend every day cooking out of a Tessa original design (our own restaurant kitchen), this one felt especially meaningful as we were able to create a memorable dining experience in a space that I've watched Tessa pour her heart into over the past 8 years; from original design inception to full realization. I am so incredibly proud to be the and am very grateful to have been given the opportunity to cater in this beautiful space! 😍🤩

👨🏻‍🍳 Last week we had the privilege of competing in the Canadian Culinary Championship 🏆 alongside some incredibly talented chefs in Ottawa. Despite being in competition with each other, the whole event had an overwhelmingly collaborative feeling to it. I can honestly say that we had an absolute blast working with them in the beautifully renovated space at Raphaël Peruvian Cuisine. We would like to extend our sincere thanks to all chefs and sous chefs from the evening on making the event so enjoyable. 

Huge congratulations to Yannick La Salle for taking the gold and to Stofa Restaurant on their bronze. It was an honour to stand on the podium with you both! 🥇🥈🥉

🙏Most importantly, I would like to thank josh eyamie, Paolo DiBello and the rest of our crew for all of the hard work and dedication they poured into our dish. I was out of the country in the week leading up to the competition (timing is everything 😅) and not only did they flawlessly run the restaurant in my absence, they also took care of the brunt of the competition prep. It is rare to have such a talented crew enthusiastically take care of things the way they do, and I am forever grateful for them! 🍻🤩

All the same, we are looking for a Chef de Partie and Sous Chef to join our kitchen crew. We offer a great work-life balance (Closed Sun, Mon, Tues every week), competitive wages, and an ever evolving menu where input is always encouraged.
