Life doesn’t become more social than through sharing food. That’s our founding food philosophy. The food that comes out of our Living Kitchen is fresh, simple, honest, healthy and local.
As a Kitchen Intern (starting in August 2026) you will be working in a team of creatives who are eager to bring people together through food and assist them in the preparation of all dishes that come out of the Living Kitchen. You will be reporting to the Head Chef and work alongside our team of chefs, who together will help you grow your kitchen skills during your internship.
No day looks the same as a Kitchen Intern… but here’s a glimpse of what you can expect:
Become an all-around kitchen professionnal: You'll assist our Kitchen team with prepping, cutting and cooking for all of our different services, be it breakfast, lunch or dinner.
Stock up soldier: You'll assist in the ordering of food and other stock with our suppliers. Once received, you'll assess them for quality and store them as needed.
Get creative: You'll plate beautiful dishes and make creative buffets that not only look good, but also taste amazing. All the while ensuring that our kitchen looks spick and span!
Chat up a storm: You'll chat with an international mix of residents and locals. As you are cooking in an open kitchen, you will get to know and chat with our guests while cooking. You'll be sure to meet some interesting people along the way!
