    Back Of House Open Call — 6R Hospitality (Tribeca • Park Slope • West Village • Upper East Side • Upper West Side) ABOUT THE ROLE Our kitchens are not places where you clock in and crank tickets. They are places where labneh is whipped at 7am, lamb is broken down by hand, shakshuka comes up red and bubbling, and dirty duck fried rice hits the pass with the kind of crackle a regular can hear from across the room. Our restaurants are where the food earns the relationship, and where the plate that goes out at 9:47 on a Saturday is as honest as the one that went out at 6:02. YOU! You are the reason that happens. We’re looking for back of house cooks and leaders who understand that the line is a craft — not a treadmill. Someone who respects the product, the recipe, and the people standing next to them.
