Job Description

Client Profile

Our client has been at the forefront of the Australian dining scene for over a decade and is now embarking on a new chapter with the launch of a unique dining experience. Their restaurant will translate the energetic experience of Tokyo’s Izakayas, music bars and pop-infused counterculture into a premium fine dining restaurant. 
  
They accompany large-format dishes including whole local fish, and a premium izakaya selection, all designed to be shared between friends over yuzu slushies, wine on tap or bottles from a premium wine list. Japan’s signature playful desserts will appear as the meal winds down (or gears up for more) such as shaved ice, kakigori, mochi and sweet waffles.
