top restaurants

[food_dwarf]

I am a Canadian cook planning on coming to London in about a year and a half and what wondering what the top restaurants were. Hopefully you all could help me in searching for employment.

Others around here will probably let you know the better restaurants in London.

You might want to have look at Catering.com via the link below as it usually carries a fair amount of current jobs.

Jobs in the UK catering industry can be found here.

Good luck

If you are serious about working in London, drop me a line via the gullet; I am based in Montréal and still have a few contacts in London, maybe I can be of assistance.

I am also a Canadian who has now been in London for 9 months. I am working in a one star restaurant and did not have any trouble finding work. My impression was that there is a need for skilled cooks and almost everyone is willing to give you a shot, even the top restaurants. Check out some of the guides like Zagat, Michelin, or even the Time Out eating and drinking guide to London. I found a job my first day in London!

take a look at Restaurant Magazine, they have a recruitment section on their site. to be honest i don't know how good the online version is, but the magazine is excellent, and the recruitment section is quite important.
