Diners have become very fussy about food. They do not want a plate full of bits and pieces put in front of them. Restaurateurs should keep this in mind when they are thinking of having their kitchen designed or re-designed. The kitchen should be designed with seamless floors which should overlap part of the wall so that germs are unable to lurk in nooks and crannies. The same goes for service areas such as worktops and counters. The most easily cleaned material for equipment, shelves and cookers is stainless steel as they are easily kept free from grease. This all helps in minimising outbreaks of food poisoning. An extraction facility is essential near the cooking area as this will eliminate smells and smoke. It has to be said that extractors must be cleaned on a regular basis to keep them working properly and to keep fire hazards to a minimum. The kitchen area itself should be divided into preparation areas and cooking spaces. A separate area for refrigeration is also advisable. This area must be placed as far away from the ovens and cookers. Some customers prefer to see their food being cooked, so you might consider an open plan kitchen and dining space. This way the customer can see whether the cooking area is a clean space. You also need to create enough walking space between the different areas to give all personnel room to manoeuvre. If these spaces are wide enough you might be able to acquire trolley to bring the prepared foods to the cooking area. All drinks and ice making machines should be positioned near the front counter for easy access for the waiting staff. They will then not have to walk all the way through the kitchen. This speeds up the serving of drinks too. If you have decided to remodel your kitchen then the next thing to do is to find a commercial kitchen design company.
