A Front-of-House Working Day At Kanada-Ya:

The day begins at around 11am, the restaurant is set up, the bar is stocked and deliveries are checked and counted. At 11.30am the team briefing takes place; important announcements for the day are made, service is discussed and our delicious menu is taste tested to ensure perfection. With a plan in mind and wonderful, warm food in our bellies we are all ready to go!

We offer a fast paced lunch service with a lot of regular customers. Guests are seated, orders are taken, tasty bowls of ramen are delivered to delighted tables. When break time rolls around team members can enjoy a meal specially prepared by the kitchen, or they can order something off the menu if they like, free of charge. Rested and ready for dinner service we know that our evening will be busy but filled with music, laughter, fun and, of course, excellent food! Our unique ambience is enjoyed by staff and customers alike. Another perfect day in the wonderful world of hospitality.
