Efficiency

Efficiency in a kitchen is key for a good flow service. If most of the things you need are around you, the less you need to move, so you become more efficient. Something as simple as pans and pots on busy night are slowing down service (negotiating space on the flat tops, dishwasher over loaded, back and forth to get clean pots) and every chef knows the burden they can create. In designing and equipping this kitchen comfort inside the space was key. As seen in the picture of the grill station, there are few or no steps in-between the grill, plancha, gas salamander and combi oven. We realize and appreciate every day how much easier things are when you can stay in one place. Even when we use a combination of couple of the different cooking elements to finalize a dish, one person on that station do all the cooking.
