11/2016 to Present Kitchen Manager

The Goat- Louisville, Ky

I am responsible for the overall operations for the back of house and kitchen area of a restaurant. I purchase food and stock, and make sure everyone is trained on proper food preparation and kitchen safety techniques. I make sure the food looks good and is cooked properly, the proportions are correct, and it is cooked and served quickly. The food must be disposed of properly and it’s my job to make sure the kitchen meets all sanitary standards. I do bookings by keeping tabs on food cost, waste and employee hours, doing my best to optimize profit for The Goat.
