    Hi! We’re looking for a Chef de partie (Pasta & hot Starters) to join our kitchen at Due Amici Restaurant (BR76NR). We are a family-run restaurant that has been operating for over 30 years. Our menu is simple and classic, combining traditional Italian dishes with some influences to suit English tastes. The position available is for the hot starters and pasta section. The kitchen is divided into four sections: pasta & starters, meat mains, fish mains, and cold starters, so there will normally be four chefs working together each day. During the week, the workload is very manageable as we usually serve around 60–80 customers between Tuesday and Thursday, averaging around 20–30 lunches and 40–50 dinners. Friday and Saturday evenings are our busiest periods. Lunch service is still fairly relaxed, but dinner service averages between 120–140 customers. On Friday and Saturday nights, we also have extra help for side dishes and support during service. Your section would be fully your responsibility, which means you will manage your own station, preparation, stock, and organisation. This gives you control over your section and allows you to plan your prep during the week, keep things fresh, and manage your workload properly. The atmosphere in the kitchen is very important to us. We work with experienced people, maintain good teamwork, and try to create a positive working environment. Working hours are generally from 9:30am to 2:30pm, followed by an afternoon break, then back for dinner service from 5:30pm until around 9:30pm. The working week is Tuesday to Saturday. Every day we have four chefs in the kitchen, plus two kitchen porters — one focused on pots and pans, and one on dishes, who also helps the chefs with some preparation work. Salary is up to £50,000 per year. We generally prefer not to go above that threshold because taxes can sometimes reduce the benefit of earning slightly more, but you can discuss salary details further with the owner, Felice. He is Italian, very humble, friendly, and I’m sure you’ll enjoy meeting him. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. I’ll send you my WhatsApp number as well so we can arrange a phone call if you prefer. Thanks again, and I look forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Carmelo
