About The Position

Southall's two restaurants, Sojourner, and January, each evoke a feeling of their own; Sojourner, our center of the life in the Inn, where all are welcome to gather, and our all-day and in-room dining emanates from its kitchen. The vibe is elegant but casual. January, exclusively open for dinner, with each meal dependent on the season and ingredients available for harvest. It is where our guests will come to share the joy of a meal with family and friends all while watching it all prepared in state-of-the-art open kitchen.
