23 Accanto Health Jobs Hiring Near You

Job description:

Accanto is a new, independent Italian restaurant opening soon in Easton, MD and we’re building a small, skilled kitchen team that cares about craft, consistency, and a warm, human workplace. We’re looking for a CDC who’s organized, detail-driven, and comfortable in a high-standards, team-first kitchen. Just 5 dinner services a week with Sunday & Monday off!

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR

We're looking for a chef who is ready to build on existing leadership experience-or take on their first leadership role-within an Italian-focused, independently owned restaurant.

WHY WE'RE LOOKING

Our sister business, Piazza has become a fixture in the “big little” town of Easton where a mix of locals and former Washingtonians make a rich community of eager, informed diners. Piazza has become a fixture of the local culinary scene and already has a successful cafe, lunch and market program with beloved carry out meals.

The new restaurant, ACCANTO, will complete the program and diversify it by engaging more with our local suppliers of whole animals and beautiful produce while utilizing the fabulous imported staples we source for the market like single-estate extra virgin olive oil, DOC-certified cured meats and heritage cow Parmigiano Reggiano. We're leaving the beef meatballs, 6 oz boneless, skinless chicken breasts on the store's carryout meal menu so we can explore Italian culinary cannon more deeply and more seasonally in our full service restaurant.

We don't care about awards, internet fame, or "stars"; we just want to make really good food made in a simple and clear, Italian way. We promise you won't get bored, we don't want to be bored either.

WHAT WE NEED

Italian cooking experience is required. Executive chef Chris Beasley and owner Emily Chandler are looking for a culinary partner to connect Italian regional cooking to the Mid Atlantic. Italian cuisine is endlessly inspiring and we're constantly referring back to the cookbooks of Marcella Hazan, Artusi Pellegrino, Ruth Rogers or the Oxford Companion to Italian Food by Gillian Riley.
