My friend, Mark, is about to open his new restaurant two weeks from now, and he hasn’t decided where to buy kitchen equipment. It’s a casual dining restaurant, more of a combination of a family bar and grill type, with their specialty, grilled steaks and chicken. Opening day is so close and everything should be all set two days before the big day. I tried to search in the Internet for catalog retailers who sells kitchen products and equipments, and with good fortune, I found Chefs Catalog. It is a leading catalog retailer of top-quality cooking equipment and sells top brands such as All-Clad, Calphalon, Henckels, and KitchenAid. It even got better when I discovered that they had promotional codes for their kitchen products. So I immediately called Mark, and he happily accepted my suggestion.
Basic equipment for a restaurant kitchen includes refrigerators, freezers, plates, racks, cooking utensils, and more. We bought almost half of Mark’s restaurant’s equipment from Chefs Catalog. I met the chef of his restaurant, Tom, who worked out on what kind of kitchen he’ll be running. He also tailored the design and the list of equipment to use for safety and efficiency. For the menus, it was a combined effort between Tom and Mark, which I think displays a mouthwatering set of food. Even I can’t wait to have a taste of these excellent recipes from Tom.
I got a couple of tips from the two geniuses of the creation of this restaurant. The number one thing they told me in putting up a kitchen in a restaurant would be planning ahead. You have to consider a number of factors, such as the number of people who will work inside the kitchen, the workspace, and the different kitchen stations that includes storage, cooking, preparation, and cleaning stations. This is to make sure that the flow of work inside the kitchen is running smoothly and safely for both the personnel and of course, the customers. But one of the most important but overlooked factor would be the equipment. I’m glad I was able to help in this part of the planning.
The equipment is very important in a restaurant. Without it, where would you store the food, or how would you cut meat, how would you serve it, and basically, how would you cook it. It is important to have durable and high quality tools and equipment to make sure that the cooking process in the kitchen runs efficiently. And always make sure that you have extra equipment in case of damages.
Mark’s restaurant will be opening soon and I can’t wait to for the big day. I’m sure there will be lots of people who’ll try the scrumptious food Tom will prepare (I’m definitely one of them). Thanks to Chefs Catalog promotional codes, Mark was able to buy affordable and high quality kitchen products.
