Our goal is to offer a modern dining experience that blends authentic Peruvian inspiration with creativity, making it approachable and exciting for Indian diners.

We are looking for a skilled and passionate Executive Chef to lead our kitchen and help us deliver memorable dining experiences. You do not need to have prior Peruvian cuisine experience — chefs from Asian, Continental, or Japanese backgrounds can easily adapt and excel in this role.

• Regularly taste dishes and coach the team to ensure consistency.
• Cost & Inventory Control
• Manage food costs, track usage, and minimize wastage.
• Work with suppliers to source fresh, high-quality ingredients.
• Hygiene & Compliance
• Ensure that the kitchen follows all FSSAI hygiene and safety regulations.
• Maintain a clean, organized, and efficient work environment.
• Guest Engagement
• Be the face of the kitchen when needed — explain dishes to guests and collect feedback.
• Work closely with restaurant management to enhance the overall dining experience.

Requirements

• Proven experience as Executive Chef / Head Chef / Senior Sous Chef in premium restaurants, hotels, or luxury dining spaces.
• Strong culinary background — experience in Asian, Continental, Japanese, or similar cuisines is acceptable.

• Strong understanding of kitchen operations, costing, and team management.
• Passion for culinary creativity and guest satisfaction.

What We Offer

• Competitive salary package with performance-based incentives.
• Opportunity to work with one of India’s first modern Peruvian-Latin restaurants.
• Creative freedom and training to explore a new cuisine.
• A collaborative and supportive work culture focused on excellence.
