Palmers of Enderby, have recently purchased and refurbished the Ullesthorpe Garden Centre, near Lutterworth, Leics. A newly extended upmarket dining area has been added, offering a larger menu option.  To facilitate the new menu and increased seating capacity, a new kitchen had to be added. As no Natural gas was available on site, and with the soaring price of LPG fuel, the new owners wanted an energy efficient kitchen which was easy to clean and would withstand heavy use over many years.  The Palux Bistroline range of equipment was selected, incorporating energy efficient induction hobs, fryers, Bain maries and their unique Multi pan which can be used for shallow frying, braizing, boiling and griddling. The 3600mm long cooking line is mobile and was manufactured in one piece, with no joints in the worktop – all appliances being “Dropped in”, making cleaning quick and easy and optimising hygiene.  Standing next to the cooking line is a Slimline Palux 10 rack combi oven, only 500mm wide; this oven is fitted with an automatic inbuilt wash system (with a choice of 3 washing cycles) saving operator time on washing the oven.

Michael the Head Chef stated that he is “delighted with the new cooking line” which is coping brilliantly with the ever increasing demands of this busy site.

Firex EasyBratt Bratt Pan

ChefsRange Catering Equipment are specialists in the supply of Commercial Gas and Electric Bratt pans for production cooking or for general banqueting use.

Ideal for large quantity food production, Bratt Pans are very versatile - a truly multi purpose piece of catering equipment.  Bratt pans can be used for braising, searing, shallow or deep frying. For example, you can set the Bratt pan at fry temperature for browning off meat, later on you can add liquid to allow the food to gently braise, in the Bratt Pan.

Bratt pans come in manual or electric tilt which makes emptying the bratt pan and washing out the pan very easy and safe for the operator. A plumbed in Bratt pan will allow water to be added to the food, or to be used to wash out the Bratt Pan tank at the end of the cooking time.

We also have a range of Autoclave lid Bratt Pans which means there is a pressurized lid which is clamped down to achieve quicker results at a higher temperature.   Bratt pans with in-built stirrers by Firex are ideal for high volume cooking where consistent quality is required.

Giorik kitchen suite

When Barry Farrell of Farells Restaurant in Keynsham wanted a new front of house  kitchen for his flagship site, he wanted a product line that was durable and good looking .  Barry chose the Giorik line as the equipment looks good, is easy to clean and is flexible enough to cater for both lunch and dinner time menu’s. The equipment included high powered open burner ranges, fryers, pasta boilers, humidifying radiant chargrills, and an energy saving hi speed salamander grill. As the theme is Italian/Irish cuisine and  Barrys reputation for quality pizzas is well known in the Bristol region, an Italforni high quality deck oven was chosen, not only as it produces large volumes,  but also as it is an attractive oven to look at.

When Sen nin restaurant were opening a new branch of their successful Japanese Teppanyaki restaurants in Ealing they needed to buy six high quality teppanyaki griddles, which would stand up to the rigours of intensive use.

Sen Nin Japanese restaurants offer a fun and exciting atmosphere with live cooking, where the customers sit around the teppanyaki whilst the Chef prepares their food to order.

For this type of front of house cooking they needed to specify high quality teppanyaki griddles.  The Casta electric Teppanyaki griddles have a chrome plate so not only are they very attractive and easy to clean, but they are also very energy efficient.

Proprietor Naresh Kapoor, stated: I am really pleased with the high quality of the Casta Teppanyaki griddles and am happy to recommend them!

Italforni ES12 pizza oven at Subway, Edgware Rd, London

Franchisee SR Foods were looking for a heavy duty, attractive pizza oven to site in their busy new Edgware Rd store.   The brief was to supply a triple deck energy efficient pizza oven capable of coping with a high output of pizzas per hour.

Chefsrange proposed an Italforni ES12 electric triple deck pizza oven which is capable of cooking 12 x 12” pizzas per deck, with each deck being individually controlled allowing the equipment to be flexible according to demand.  The advantages of these ovens is that the top and bottom heat can be independently controlled, unlike gas ovens, and the steam release valve allows quick removal of humidity in the oven, ensuring crispy evenly cooked  pizzas.

The inbuilt energy saving features of the Italforni pizza oven allows a reduction of up to 50% energy savings during non-peak times.

The franchisee chose the Italforni pizza oven as it was available on time and in budget and it provides an attractive impressive front of house display as well as achieving excellent results.

Next time you are in Edgware Rd, pop into Subway and try some Italforni pizza!

ROTISSERIE MANUFACTURING

In 2003, the company became Vision 2000 certified and they continue to raise the standards in the production of chicken rotisseries, already one of the top manufacturers in Europe.

Whether it’s a gas or electric rotisserie you need, planetary or automatic rotisserie, take a look at the selection shown on the following page:

http://www.chefsrange.co.uk/04chicken-rotisseries-c-742.html

CB rotisseries are used by thousands of companies from large supermarkets to small catering outlets, their reliability is second to none and the competitive pricing means these chicken rotisseries are accessible for most catering outlets.

Just think of the profit margin … buy a chicken for less than £2 … once it’s cooked on a CB chicken rotisserie you can sell it for over double !!!  Not a bad return on investment, especially as you don’t need to employ highly skilled staff to operate a chicken rotisserie.
