Location: Antwerp, Belgium
Welcome to our kitchen!

We cook balanced, seasonal menus using the highest quality fresh, local, and organic ingredients. Our aim is to bring people together to connect over cuisine driven by love and to prove once and for all that truly healthy food can be creative — and of course, delicious!

Right now, you have the opportunity to train in cooking delicious vegan meals. By doing so, you’ll help us offer the local and global community a new style of dining seven days a week: homemade, fresh, organic, plant-based food made with love. This food brings people together to be nourished and share our special four-course menu, which changes every three weeks.

Our vision is unique because we want to be more than just a place serving good food. We aim to create a collaborative kitchen that both trains new chefs and employs them on a freelance basis.

We are a non-profit organisation with a mission to promote healthy vegan food and to train volunteers how to cook for themselves or, if they wish, to pursue a career in cooking. We welcome travelers interested in learning more about whole food, plant-based cuisine; such individuals will gain hands-on experience cooking alongside our team.

Our current head chefs, Alistair, Ruth, and Chala, are skilled in preparing plant-based, whole food, organic, vegan cuisine.

WORKING ARRANGEMENT

The work involves learning to prepare a four-course meal that changes every three weeks. You will be trained in how to cook each element of the meal so that after three weeks, you can make it independently. This is a hands-on learning environment in the kitchen, from cleaning and chopping vegetables, to recipe and menu planning, all necessary preparations, and plating. We operate on a rotation of six shifts per week, approximately 30 hours, with two full days off. While the majority of the work involves cooking, you will also serve customers and assist with cleaning tasks.

LIVING ARRANGEMENT

We have two en-suite bedrooms and one bedroom without a bathroom. Meals are provided three times a day, seven days a week as self-catering. At the end of your stay, you will receive €30 for each week worked.
