    We are Down To Earth Cuisine Personal Chef Services and we are looking for a few rock star chefs to join our growing team. You have a love of all cuisines, a servant’s heart, and a penchant for great customer service. Your strong creative spark drives you and you don’t go a day without exploring a new ingredient, cooking technique or cuisine to keep that drive strong.

In addition, you have menu writing experience, an exceptional palate, and easily adapt in an ever changing environment.

If you are a skilled chef with experience in menu planning, meal preparation, and a commitment to superior customer service and sustainability, we encourage you to apply.
