Sous Chef

BARBS is a Bajan food brand. We cook the food of Barbados for London: bold, comforting, a little sweet, with proper heat. You'll find us at our Queen of Hoxton residency in Shoreditch and our kiosk at the National Theatre on the South Bank.

This is a small kitchen with a small team. There's nowhere to hide and nobody to hide behind, which suits the right person. We need a sous chef who's quick, calm under pressure and happy to own the kitchen day to day.

The food

Our core menu is Bajan comfort food, built for speed and consistency. On top of that, we're launching two new services. Fish Fridays: fried fish and prawns, cooked to order. And Sunday roasts. Both take proper technique. For fish, that means seasoning, batter, oil temperature and timing. For roasts, it means meat cooked right, and every element landing on the plate hot and together. It has to be spot on every time, even when the tickets are stacking up.
