Job description

SAN HO WON is a Korean restaurant from the three-Michelin-star team behind Benu. We are looking for a sous chef to join our kitchen team! Please apply with a resume and brief cover letter.
About: We believe that sharing a meal of meat grilled over charcoal and paired with a variety of homemade sauces and condiments is what the Korean BBQ experience is all about.

The other items on our menu are rooted in home cooking and traditional flavors but embrace local ingredients and modern techniques. We hope to offer a representation of Korean cooking that contributes to our city’s vibrant dining culture.
