Thai Green Elephant Restaurant · Esquimalt, BC · $21.25 hourly

Posted 2026-07-24 · Reviewed on 2026-09-09 · What do these ratings mean?

Verdict

Thai Green Elephant is verified as a real family-run Esquimalt restaurant with matching business and location and a reachable site, and the cook duties and $21.25 hourly rate fit the role. The concrete concern is the application email: cti.immigration@gmail.com fired generic_email_domain and, as the verifier notes, is an immigration-consultant-style address rather than the restaurant's own, which points to a third party controlling the applicant pipeline. Combined with "relocation costs covered by employer", this reads as an LMIA-recruitment channel that warrants extra caution even though the underlying employer is real.
