Work with us
Come and cook
Nine people on a Friday and room for three more. Here is the pay, the roster and the bit about the heat that nobody else puts in the advert.
Open now
Three jobs
All three are full-time and all three start whenever the right person turns up.
Grill cook
Six shifts, Tuesday to Sunday, four until close. You will be on charcoal every one of them. Experience helps and is not required — Yaw has taught four people from nothing.
₵ 3,200/mo
Commis, soups and pots
Five shifts, two until close. The palm nut, the groundnut, the light soup and the pepper base. This is the job that teaches you the whole kitchen.
₵ 2,400/mo
Front of house
Five shifts, four until close, plus Sunday lunch every other week. You need to be able to describe six dishes without reading and to say no kindly on a full Friday.
₵ 2,600/mo

What it is actually like
The parts that other kitchens leave off the advert.
It is very hot
There is no gas and no induction, which means there is a charcoal grill running for seven hours. In March it is genuinely hard.
Two days off, together
Monday plus one other, and they are consecutive. Nobody here works a split week, which took three years to make work.
Service is split evenly
Kitchen included, same percentage for everybody, paid the same day. On a good month it is worth another third of the wage.
You eat before service
Properly, sitting down, off the same board, at four o'clock. Not the returns and not standing up.

Hiring
One conversation, one shift
Send a note saying which job and when you can start. There is no form, and a CV is welcome but has never once been the thing that decided it.
If it looks right you will come in on a Wednesday, work one paid shift alongside whoever you would be working with, and eat with the room at four. Both of us will know by the end of it.

Reservations
Reserve
Tables for two to eight are held online. For nine and over, or for the back room on its own, call the house and we will build the evening around you.
Tuesday to Sunday, 5pm until late
