Weekend Chefs are responsible for menu planning, food preparation, maintaining kitchen cleanliness, and ensuring food safety standards are met. This role requires strong cooking skills, time management, and the ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced environment.

What skills and qualifications are needed to thrive as a weekend chef?
