Bahrain Food Handler Card

Job description

Now taking table bookings online for Isa Town and Seef. More

Eathai serves traditional Thai food in Bahrain. Our kitchens are run by Thai chefs, our recipes are not adapted, and every venue is fully halal. We are looking for a Commis 2 to work a station in our Seef kitchen.

The job

You run a station under direction. You cook to the recipe card, you hold most of your station alone through a normal service, and there is a senior cook beside you for the rest. This is the grade where a cook stops being helped and starts being relied on.

What you will do

• Cook your station to the recipe card — the weight, the method and the plate
• Finish your mise en place in full before service opens
• Call to the senior cook when you are falling behind, rather than letting the pass find out
• Store everything covered, labelled and dated, and keep FIFO rotation
• Take and record fridge and freezer temperatures when asked
• Keep your station clean while you work, not only at the end of the shift
• Learn a second station, and then a third

What we are looking for

• One year or more in a professional kitchen
• Able to work a station under direction and cover most of it alone
• Able to follow a recipe card accurately, rather than cooking by eye
• Basic food safety — temperatures, dates, rotation and cross-contamination
• Enough English to read a recipe card and a date label and to take an instruction
• Fit for a ten-hour day on your feet, holding a Bahrain food handler card or able to get one
• Thai or wider South-East Asian cuisine is an advantage
• Already in Bahrain on a transferable visa is a plus, but not required

What we offer

• Shared company accommodation
• A duty meal on every shift
• Transport between accommodation and the venue
• Work permit and residence visa arranged and paid by Eathai
• Health insurance as required in Bahrain
• 10hours a day, 6 days a week, with one full day off
• Salary is set by the Eathai grade for this post and is discussed at interview

Eathai pays every recruitment and visa cost. You will never be asked to pay a fee — not to us, not to an agency, not to anyone acting for them. If someone asks you for money in connection with this job, tell us.
