  2. The chef will be expected to accommodate, within reason, the special dietary needs of friars regularly assigned to the house (i.e., diabetic, gluten-free, dairy-free, etc.).
  3. Accommodate dietary restrictions for special religious holidays, seasons, and feasts (e.g., no meat, smaller/simpler meals on designated days, more festive meals on feast days).
  4. Vary menus to include many different cuisines and avoid fried food more than once a week.

  7. Other duties may be added to this job description by the supervisor as determined by the needs of the community.
