Am a highly resourceful , flexible and motivated Head chef with an enduring passion for cooking.
I understand that a successful business is one that is efficient in using its resources to make a profit.
As a head chef , I successfully ran my kitchen to a strict budget, ensuring that everyone involved is kept to the guidelines and portion control and use stock effectively.
I also firmly believe that customer satisfaction is the most important aspect of running a successful restaurant , hence I like to ensure that the food that comes out of the kitchen is prepared and presented to the highest standard.
My practical experience working in busy kitchens and my ever growing passion toward food have made me flawless in executing culinary arts, management and customer relations.
