Fine dining jobs in New York, New York (NY) State

In 2005, sushi chefs Nick Kim and Jimmy Lau met while working at Masa. Shuko was born in 2014, and it is where the combined vision of both chefs is executed daily, in the form of an omakase menu. That vision is one that veers away from the norm of high-end, sushi establishments — both in terms of the chefs' innovative use of ingredients and the hip atmosphere dictated in part by the popular music that pervades the dining room. Shuko brings exciting energy, innovative technique, and New York state produce to a traditional Japanese cuisine that has pervaded the city’s restaurant scene for some time and is now searching for well-rounded, talented Sommeliers to join our team!
