Smash & Show is a brand-new restaurant opening at Warden & Lawrence, in the heart of Scarborough's well-known shawarma row. We're bringing something different to the strip with smash burgers, Montreal smoked meat, fried chicken, poutine and other comfort-food favourites done with proper technique and a serious focus on quality.
We're building the opening team from the ground up. The restaurant will combine a takeout-heavy service model with dine-in and walk-in traffic, centred around an open kitchen where the food and team are part of the experience.
We're looking for strong kitchen leaders who want to be part of building the restaurant from day one. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who is comfortable working the line, leading by example and helping set the standards and culture for the opening team.

What we're looking for
