Lahpet is one of London’s only restaurants to specialise in authentic Burmese cooking.
Aiming to shine a light on this relatively untapped cuisine, Lahpet has been popularising traditional Burmese cooking by presenting Londoners with regional specialities with a hint of refinement and contemporary flare.
Owners Dan and Head Chef Zaw both have Burmese heritage and are the driving forces behind the concept which was cultivated and received critical acclaim in its Hackney warehouse location in London Fields during 2022.
Lahpet will open its first permanent site in Shoreditch in early April and is lookingt to hire an experienced Sous Chef to join its growing team.
Requirements:

Demonstrable leadership qualities in supporting, training and leading a team of chefs.
Strong organisational skills
A passion for and wide knowledge of fresh produce.
An acute eye for detail
A forward thinking and innovative approach.
High standards in food hygiene and health and safety.

An interest, understanding and passion for South East Asian cooking would be beneficial but is not a prerequisite.
If the above sounds like you, you’re tenacious, reliable and interested in being part of our young dynamic team then get in touch!
