Sous Chef Drift

Halifax, NS, Canada

Job Description


Company Description

Owning a strong connection to place, Drift is an ode to Nova Scotia\'s land, people and history. Located on the main level of the newly built five-star Muir Hotel, Drift\'s salon, bar and promenade offers an environment that evokes a one-of-a-kind sense of place, along with almost-surreal harbourfront views within a simple, modern and stylish setting. Serving breakfast, lunch and dinner daily, as well as weekend brunch, Drift\'s menus represent a modern interpretation of Atlantic Canadian classics. Drift\'s chefs maintain close relationships with Nova Scotia purveyors, and source the finest products across the East Coast-from fennel to fiddleheads. Chefs take a clean, contemporary approach to plating, while ensuring each dish still feels approachable and not too fussy.
