Hiring for New Concept Opening!
We’re hiring for Pasta e Basta — a quick-service pasta concept inspired by one of our most beloved restaurants, Ask for Luigi, and opening at Timeout Market in Oakridge Park.
This concept is built around a simple idea: great pasta, served quickly, without compromise. This is Luigi at its most direct form — familiar, comforting, and generous. No extras, no complications. Just good pasta, served well. Even in a quick-service setting, the goal remains the same: to create a moment of connection through food and hospitality.
We’re building our opening team and are looking for Sous Chef, Cooks, Chef de Parties, and Counter Servers. We’d love to meet passionate, hospitality-driven individuals who want to help bring Pasta e Basta to life!

- 2+ years of experience in a high-volume kitchen in a similar position

- Strong understanding of station ownership, prep, and service flow
- Ability to lead by example and support junior team members
- Confidence working efficiently without compromising standards
- Strong organizational skills and attention to detail
- A positive, team-first mindset
- Food Safe Level 1 is considered an asset
What we offer:
- 50% off food across all Kitchen Table Restaurants and Cafes up to a table of four
- Extended health benefits after 6 months of full-time employment
- A supportive, positive work environment
- Growth and advancement potential
