A little about Tanaka:

At Tanaka, comfort meets contemporary. We offer an all-day breakfast and lunch menu featuring katsu sandwiches, baked goods, and more all made with delightful ingredients sourced from the Pacific Northwest. Japanese comfort food, artisanal baking, and of course the katsu sauce are at the forefront of what we make. Our 70 year-old katsu sauce is made from a tomato base with sweet, subtle notes of apple, pear, and dates. Our pastries are infused with flavors commonly found in Japanese cuisine. Everything is baked on-site daily and made with locally sourced ingredients.

The ideal candidate will be willing to learn all aspects of the operation, including bakery and washing dishes when necessary.
