How would you describe working at Aars?
Fun, educational, dynamic, challenging, and motivating
Dalia Kazokaityte thrives in her role as Head Chef at Bygdøy Allé 4 (BA4).
Here, she prepares lunch daily for employees at Aars, Møller Eiendom, tenants, owners, and the many visitors to the building. In addition, she plans and prepares meals for both small and large events hosted at the house. Dalia is a trained nutritionist and places great emphasis on serving high-quality food: healthy, locally sourced, made from excellent ingredients, and providing plenty of energy.
“Cooking good food for busy people is just fun,” says Dalia with a smile.
She has set herself the goal of making lunch a highlight of the busy workday for everyone with an office at BA4.
When do you feel you’ve done a really good job?
“It’s always nice when employees invite guests to our own canteen instead of going out for lunch! That’s when I know I’ve done a good job.”
Dalia enjoys working in the service team and among her colleagues, whom she finds both curious and genuinely interested in the food she prepares.
“I’m also lucky to be able to bring a little extra joy to people’s day with small messages like ‘Lunch is ready’ or ‘Hope you enjoy your meal.’”
What is the best thing about your job?
"When people come up to me and thank me for the food. And when they are pleasantly surprised by a new dish I serve," she concludes.
