Pasta Evangelists is looking for an utterly fabulous individual to manage our new London Based fresh pasta restaurant. We won’t just be cooking and serving our customers the freshest pasta in town (although that’s a big part of it!), but opening doors to one of the coolest locations in town. Picture this: you’ll have your own chefs making fresh pasta in the window to entice the good people of London in. There’ll be the hippest Italian funk and jazz on stereo, the smell of ragù in the air, fresh pasta making classes in-house, drivers buzzing about on our beautiful terracotta Vespas, and much more. Oh, and did we mention that you’ll have your own complimentary wine machine to offer customers a glass of the good stuff when they come and visit our restaurant?
