Lead Line Cook

$24 - $26 per hour
Full-time, Part-time

Mimloo

Long Island City · Full time, 40 hrs/week · $24–26/hour

Kitchen closes at 6pm. Every day. No dinner service, no 1am breakdown.

Mimloo is a play café and children's activity space opening on 44th Drive in August. We serve a tight menu built for families — sandwiches, salads, grain bowls, eggs, and kid plates done properly rather than as an afterthought. Two minutes from Court Square (7/E/M/G).

This is the senior kitchen role. You'll run the line, own consistency, and help finalize the menu before we open.

The job

  • Run the line during service — you're the one cooking
  • Own prep lists, ordering, par levels, and waste
  • Set the kitchen's standards and hold them: temps, labeling, rotation, DOH readiness
  • Work with us on menu development and costing before we open
  • Direct the prep and dish person on shift

You'll have a prep and dish person working alongside you. This is not a role where you spend service in the dish pit.

What we're looking for

  • 2+ years on a line; sous or lead experience is a plus
  • Comfortable owning a small kitchen without a chef above you
  • Steady through a weekend brunch rush
  • NYC Food Protection certificate required — we'll cover it if you don't have one yet
  • English or Spanish both fine

Schedule: Five days a week, roughly 8am–4pm or 10am–6pm. Weekends required — Saturday and Sunday are our biggest days by a wide margin.

What you get: $24–26/hour · paid sick leave · free food and coffee · free play passes for your own kids · genuine authorship of the menu you'll be cooking

Start date: As soon as possible! We'd want you on three to four weeks before opening to build the kitchen out with us.

Apply with a quick summary of the kitchens you've worked in. We pay for trial shifts.
