MEI

MEI | PORTER / PREP SUPPORT (St. Petersburg, FL)

320 3rd St S | Opening May 2026
--

Excellence starts behind the scenes.

MEI is a new elevated dining concept in downtown St. Pete, blending   French technique, Nordic philosophy, and Japanese ingredients   into something completely original, not fusion, but a conversation of cultures.

What You’ll Do:
  • Keep kitchen + prep spaces clean, organized, and dialed in
  • Support chefs with prep, breakdown, and flow of service
  • Handle dishwashing with speed + precision
  • Assist with deliveries + storage (everything has a place)
  • Maintain sanitation standards that match a   fine dining environment
Who You Are:
  • You move with purpose — no wasted motion
  • You take pride in doing things right (even when no one’s watching)
  • You want to grow into something bigger
What You Get:
  • Flexible scheduling
  • Competitive hourly pay: $18-20/hr
  • Benefits available  (based on eligibility)
  • Growth into culinary roles
  • Work in a kitchen focused on   fermentation, fire cooking, and craftsmanship
If you want to break into serious kitchens, this is your start.
