Chris Lucas wants you. Or, more precisely, he wants 450 of you – chefs, sommeliers, waiters and bartenders – to staff his latest Melbourne CBD restaurants, the highly anticipated upscale diner Society headlined by leading chef Martin Benn, and Australian-Japanese grill Yakimono, earmarked to open at the 80 Collins development in mid and late 2021 respectively.
The high-profile restaurateur last week formally launched a recruitment drive, both nationally and internationally, in what is seen, in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, as a much-needed boon to employment, with the end of JobKeeper.
