The Sous Chef has a keen eye for detail, has exceptional verbal skills, and is able to perform well while under pressure. He or she is also incredibly creative with new recipe and has advanced knowledge of plating and can creatively come up with daily/weekly specials that coincide with the Friend of a Farmer brand.
