Description
Summary of role

At TestTafel, we run a creative, non-toxic, and truly collaborative kitchen with a brand-new menu every single week. As an intern, you won't be stuck on prep duty for months—you’ll dive straight into hands-on dish design, seasonal cooking, and kitchen management.

Here, we offer real responsibility and rapid skill building. You will gain experience in both high-level cooking and behind-the-scenes kitchen operations.
We ask you to bring your own culinary ideas to life and get involved in special projects, like our fermentation lab.

If you’re looking for a fast-paced environment where your voice matters and your learning curve is steep, TestTafel is the place.

Requirements and Expectations
What will you do?

With the kitchen team, you will:
- Support the daily operation of the kitchen, working towards and during service hours.
- Rotate through key roles, from running the pass and managing orders to sourcing hyperlocal, seasonal ingredients.
- Participate in weekly menu creation and recipe development; providing ideas, writing recipes, attending Tuesday meetings.

This is a broad and flexible internship. The exact tasks and focus areas can largely be shaped around your interests, skills, and learning goals. Meanwhile, helping us sustain and improve daily operations is key.
