About Evil Onigiri

Evil Onigiri is a Japanese-inspired restaurant concept in Bangalore by Loudrthn Collective, built around bold flavours, a tight, focused menu, and a strong design-led brand experience. We are a small, high-standards team preparing for launch — every early hire will shape how we cook, serve, and grow.

The Role

As Chef de Partie, you will own a section of the Evil Onigiri kitchen end-to-end — prep, execution, plating, and consistency — while working closely with the Head Chef on a compact, Japanese-inspired menu. This is a role with real ownership from day one: you will help set the standards, systems, and pace of a brand-new kitchen rather than inherit someone else's.

Key Responsibilities

- Run your assigned section independently through prep and service, ensuring every dish leaves the pass to spec

- Execute the menu with consistency in taste, portioning, and presentation across every service

- Manage mise en place, stock levels, and ordering for your section; minimise wastage

- Maintain rigorous hygiene, food safety (FSSAI), and kitchen discipline standards at all times

- Train, guide, and supervise Commis chefs working in your section





- Contribute to recipe development, tastings, and menu refinement alongside the Head Chef

What We're Looking For

- 2-4 years of professional kitchen experience in a restaurant, hotel, or cloud kitchen; exposure to Japanese or pan-Asian cuisine is a strong plus

- Solid fundamentals in knife skills, prep systems, and station management

- Calm and organised under service pressure, with high personal standards for consistency

- A degree or diploma in culinary arts / hotel management preferred

- Eagerness to learn Japanese techniques and grow into a senior kitchen role as we scale

What You'll Get

- Early ownership in a new brand — your systems and standards become the house standards

- Direct mentorship from the Head Chef and founding team

- Explicit growth path to Sous Chef as the brand expands

- Staff meals, and a tight-knit, design-forward work culture

This is an urgent requirement with a short timeline — shortlisted candidates will be contacted for interviews on priority.

Pay: ₹30,000.00 - ₹35,000.00 per month

Work Location: In person
