We're looking for a Banquet Cook who can keep up with the pace, bring serious flavor, and maybe even have a little fun while doing it.

Town and Country Resort is a San Diego icon, known for blending mid-century charm with modern vibes—and our banquets are no exception. Whether it's a 20-person VIP dinner or a 1,000-guest celebration, our culinary team delivers dishes that impress and execute with precision. As a Banquet Cook, you're a key player behind the scenes, making sure every plate that leaves the kitchen looks and tastes exactly how it should. Timing is everything, teamwork is non-negotiable, and yes—multitasking is basically your superpower.

Assist with large-scale food production while maintaining consistency and quality. Follow all food safety and sanitation standards (because no one likes a surprise ingredient). Help with prep, breakdown, and clean-up—teamwork makes the dream work. Adapt quickly to last-minute changes, special requests, and the occasional "we need 50 more plates, like, now."

Ability to work efficiently under pressure without sacrificing quality. Flexible schedule, including nights, weekends, and holidays. Strong communication and teamwork skills—no lone wolves in this kitchen. Positive attitude, reliability, and a willingness to jump in wherever needed.
