Use this sample and step by step explanation to craft a meaningful employee performance feedback review for a head chef. Find the right words with quality phrases.
A head chef manages all the affairs of a kitchen including creating the menu, managing the staff in the kitchen and ordering supplies just like an executive chef. However, he/she is usually under someone else who makes higher decisions such as those relating to staff management and the direction of the menu especially if there are multiple restaurants.
Other responsibilities include being in charge of the process of preparing food, ensuring that the servings are of high quality, approving dishes before they get to the customer, supervising subordinates, maintaining payroll and attendance records, hiring and training kitchen staff, complying with sanitation regulations as well as order for the required ingredients and equipment.
