Restaurant General Manager
A fantastic opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic and motivated Restaurant General Manager to join the opening team of the ABC Kitchen at The Emory.
The Maybourne Hotel Group is proud to introduce a new architectural landmark to London. The final project designed by the late Lord Richard Rogers, The Emory will be an exclusive, world-class hub of art and culture which marks the addition of a modern masterpiece to the group's global luxury estate. Situated on Knightsbridge and overlooking Hyde Park, The Emory will present 60 extraordinary suites set over 8 floors and a spectacular penthouse occupying the entire 9th floor.
The progressive spirit of The Emory comes alive in the hotel's culinary offering on the ground floor, with world-famous chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten introducing his highly acclaimed ABC concept of fresh, local and conscious cuisine to London for the first time from his beloved Manhattan outpost. The ground floor space will also compromise The Emory Bar & Courtyard, available from early morning until late at night.
The menu will feature a combination of dishes from Jean-Georges’ 3 ABC concepts in New York – offering guests a choice of international cuisine from the original ABC Kitchen, Latin American dishes from ABC Cocina as well as creative and forward-thinking plant based dishes from ABCv.
ABC Kitchen at The Emory also reflect the farm-to-table, fresh-from-the-market approach long pioneered by Jean-Georges.
