Part-time Chef - Demonstration Kitchen and Private Events The Joyful Gourmet Libertyville, IL Job Details Part-time $40 - $50 an hour 1 day ago Benefits Flexible schedule Qualifications Menu design Culinary Arts Meal preparation Restaurant experience Kitchen experience Full Job Description The Joyful Gourmet is an independent upscale kitchen retail store in the far north Chicago suburbs with an exquisite demonstration kitchen used for small group cooking classes, demonstration dinners and private events. We are looking for another chef to add to our rotation of chefs, typically Friday and Saturdays evenings (there may occasionally be some weekday / daytime opportunities). This position is perfect for a chef that retired or left the restaurant scene for a day-job but misses the creative outlet of cooking for others. It's easy and great side money - you set the menu, we shop, we clean up - all you have to do is show up & have a great time. It is important you are comfortable in front of people. Priorities for our events are to give people a great experience, teach a little, and execute a fantastic meal. Since we do a lot of high end meals on the weekends and our focus is teaching + techniques, we require formal culinary training and solid restaurant experience. Our chefs call our kitchen their "happy place" - come have some fun!
