Trainee at Restaurant.Bar.Garden

The Louise Hotel Brussels 5*, the first MGallery hotel in Belgium, is looking for its future trainee at Restaurant.Bar.Garden.

Our new restaurant "Maison Louise" has been designed as a large apartment with a living room and dining area. An intimate dining room and a private lounge punctuate each end. The entire space is elegantly designed in a contemporary style.

You want to put your personal touch so that our clients can experience something unique? The whole team welcomes you, develops your skills, and expands your experience in the art of table service and the world of gastronomy (setup, dressing, service, clearing).

In addition to the restaurant, you will also be able to exercise your talents in other services such as room service, banquets, or breakfast service (what better way to start the day by making customers smile?).

The bar opens onto a spacious and beautiful rooftop garden whose reputation is no longer to be made. In full sun or open all day, the serene atmosphere of the place allows our clients to sip a signature cocktail with a delicious appetizer plate or selection of tapas, before ending the evening among friends.

Our suspended garden will give you the impression of working in an oasis, away from the city's hustle and bustle. You will bathe throughout your journey in a convivial, dynamic, and professional atmosphere.
