The pizzas are baked in a rotating stone oven, a process that requires skill and attention to detail to ensure even cooking and the distinct crispness that NYPD's pizzas are known for. In addition to pizzas, you will prepare other menu staples such as garlic knots, calzones, and pizza rolls, all of which require precise preparation and presentation.

This position demands a strong understanding of food hygiene and safety, good time-management skills to handle peak hours efficiently, and a team spirit to collaborate seamlessly with kitchen staff and front-of-house team members.
