## Description

About Dhaba

Dhaba began by the warmth of Chef Enayatullah Safi's grandmother's tandoor in Afghanistan. His journey carried him through the streets of India, which gave Dhaba its soul, and into the kitchens of Copenhagen, where he learned precision and respect for every ingredient. Now, in Abu Dhabi, all of those chapters come together at one table.

The tandoor is where our story started, and it remains the heart of our kitchen. We are looking for a skilled Tandoor Chef to join our pre-opening team and bring that fire to life every service.

The Role

Reporting to the Sous Chef and Head Chef, you will run the tandoor section and deliver the signature smoky flavours that define Dhaba, with precision, consistency and authenticity, even in high-volume service.

Key responsibilities:

• Prepare, marinate and cook all tandoor dishes, including meats, seafood and breads, to Dhaba recipes and standards

• Manage tandoor temperature and cooking times for perfect texture and flavour

• Lead mise en place for the section, including marination, skewering and bread preparation

• Plate and garnish every dish to Dhaba presentation standards

• Monitor stock and storage of meats, marinades and doughs to ensure freshness

• Follow HACCP and food safety standards, keeping the tandoor area and equipment spotless

• Support other sections during peak service when needed

• Report any equipment or maintenance issues promptly to the Sous Chef

What You Bring

• Minimum 3 years' experience in an Indian kitchen, specialising in tandoor cooking

• Strong skills in marination, grilling, roasting and bread-making

• Experience in modern or upscale Indian restaurants preferred

• Sound knowledge of HACCP, temperature control and safe handling of meat and seafood

• Consistency and discipline in a fast-paced kitchen

• A reliable team player who takes pride in quality
