Position Description:
The world-famous Inn at Little Washington continues to grow, and is seeking to expand our team of talented culinary professionals.
About Us:
The Inn at Little Washington, just 67 miles west of Washington D.C., a renowned 5 Star / 5 Diamond Relais & Chateaux country house hotel internationally renowned for Chef/Proprietor Patrick O'Connell's pioneering of Refined Regional American Cuisine, is a culinary oasis akin to visiting a Michelin starred restaurant in the European countryside. Established in 1978, The Inn is a member of Relais & Chateaux and their restaurant group Les Grands Chefs.
Patrick O'Connell's inspired American cuisine draws admirers from around the world and has been described by critics as "so good it makes you cry."
The Inn features an award winning 14,000 bottle wine cellar, which includes the finest offerings from Bordeaux, Burgundy, California and Virginia.
The late Craig Claiborne of The New York Times called it "the most magnificent inn I've ever seen--in this country or Europe--where I had the most fantastic meal of my life." Patrick's approach to cooking, while paying homage to the lawmakers of Classical French Cuisine, reflects a belief in "the cuisine of today", healthy, eclectic, imaginative, unrestricted by ethnic boundaries and always growing.
The Inn's menu changes daily and incorporates local and seasonal cuisine.
Menu items include:
A Tin of Sin: American Osetra Caviar with Peekytoe Crab and Cucumber Rillette
