💡 A word from JOBPLOY

Due to the nature of the Italian/French-based dining store, understanding culinary terminology and ingredients is important, and proficiency in basic cooking and serving is required for both kitchen and hall staff. As explaining menus and wine pairings to customers is frequent, fluent Korean communication skills are required.
