Cat Cora is taking to Twitter to recruit workers for Cat Cora's Tap Room and Cat Cora's Kitchen.

To apply, visit bit.ly/3yETDHL," Cora posted on Twitter, along with a video saying she's looking for "energetic culinary staff."
According to the company website, Cat Cora's Kitchen, a cocktail-and-tapas concept restaurant, has locations in three airports — San Francisco (SFO), Atlanta (ATL), and Salt Lake City (SLC). The restaurants are designed to bring a sophisticated experience to airport dining with menus built on locally sourced ingredients whenever possible.

The link to apply actually lists 12 jobs, including sous chef in Atlanta, sous chef in Detroit, and sous chef in San Francisco. Other posted opportunities include openings for servers, hosts, line cooks, and bartenders.
