Not All Pancakes Are Created Equal. Neither Are Chefs.Brunch Chef
Tani Modi | Edinburgh
At Tani Modi, we believe brunch deserves the same passion, precision and respect as dinner service.
We don't see pancakes as something you throw on a plate.
We see them as a canvas.
A perfectly cooked pancake should be just as consistent as fresh pasta, just as beautifully presented as a fine dining dessert, and just as memorable as the best meal someone eats all week.
That's why we're looking for a chef who shares our obsession.
Someone who understands that every plate tells a story.
Someone who takes pride in every detail; from the colour of the pancake to the final garnish.
This isn't your average café kitchen.
We serve hundreds of guests every week, but our standards never change.
Every pancake should be fluffy.
Every poached egg should be perfect.
Every plate should leave the pass looking like it belongs on Instagram.
We're building one of Edinburgh's most exciting independent brunch destinations, and we're looking for a chef who wants to help shape what comes next.
What You'll Be Doing
- Preparing and cooking our brunch and lunch menu to an exceptional standard.
- Mastering our signature pancake recipes and helping us develop new creations.
- Taking ownership of consistency, quality and presentation.
- Working closely with the Head Chef on seasonal specials and menu development.
- Maintaining excellent food hygiene, organisation and stock control.
- Supporting and motivating the kitchen team during busy service.
We're Looking For Someone Who...
- Has experience in a professional kitchen.
- Cares deeply about quality and consistency.
- Can work calmly under pressure.
- Has a genuine passion for brunch and modern café food.
- Wants to learn, improve and contribute ideas.
- Believes that simple food, cooked exceptionally well, is what guests remember.
Most importantly...
You're the kind of chef who wouldn't send out a pancake that isn't perfect.
What We Offer
- Competitive salary, based on experience.
- Daytime-focused hours.
- Staff meals on shift.
- Paid holidays.
- Creative input into menu development.
- Training and opportunities to grow within the business.
- A supportive team that genuinely cares about food and hospitality.
This Is More Than a Chef Job.
We're not looking for someone to simply cook breakfast.
We're looking for someone who wants to redefine what brunch can be.
If you're passionate about beautiful food, take pride in your craft, and believe pancakes deserve the same respect as any fine dining dish, we'd love to hear from you.
