![]() It’s at max 120 people, so never that huge of an event. We do have a private event space in our upstairs called The Rickhouse, and you will need to be prepared to cater those events. That’s it, not 137 things you need to prep for, just a high quality, curated menu that can be executed consistently and efficiently. The menu is not huge, 6-8 appetizers or share plates, a couple of salads, maybe a soup when its soup season, 3-4 handhelps, 3-4 entrees, a dessert or two, a weekly burger feature and hopefully a weekend special. Oh and we make super cool spirits, and love when they can be incorporated into our menu items in thoughtful ways. You can do both at Long Road, make fun, creative and approachable food while also creating some dishes that challenge our guests to try something interesting or new. At the same time, every chef wants to spread their creative wings a bit. You know the drill, if people don’t enjoy what's on the menu, then we aren't doing it right. Staff, you have a small team that you are responsible for hiring, motivating, managing, training and mentoring but you find success with the team you curate.Ībout the menu, you are the chef and we want you to make great food, dishes that guests love to eat. Labor cost, you guessed it, gotta keep that under control as well. Food cost, it needs to be kept under control. They must do this with a small team but in a reasonably new kitchen of decent size (with air conditioning) with all the tools and resources necessary to do the job well. Let’s be real, we have high expectations, we need someone who cares about what they do, who loves to develop and execute a menu of a very manageable size using fresh local ingredients. You didn’t know Long Road had a kitchen? While we love great spirits and innovative cocktails, food that is as thoughtfully prepared and with great quality is an integral part of the experience we love having for our guests. Long Road Distillers, known for their world class distilled spirits and having the leading cocktail program in West Michigan is in need of someone to helm the kitchen program at their world headquarters and flagship location.
