Prata Chef / Flipper

About the role

Join Don's Signature Crab’s kitchen team as a Prata Chef / Flipper. While our core concept is coastal seafood, several outlets operate adjacent kopitiam-style counters serving breakfast and supper prata — fast-paced, high-volume service with repeat regulars and delivery orders.

You will be responsible for making a range of flatbreads (plain, egg, cheese, and stuffed variants), working at a hotplate or tawa, and maintaining consistent product quality during peak breakfast and supper periods. This role suits someone who is used to the tempo of hawker-style or kopitiam cooking and enjoys direct, hands-on preparation.

We offer structured shifts, on-the-job training to develop specialized prata skills (stretching and flipping), and a clear progression path to lead cook or multi-outlet kitchen roles for candidates who demonstrate reliability and quality. Expect a mixture of walk-in customers, regulars from the neighbourhood and delivery platform orders during peak hours.
