Dispensers
Beverage dispensers are a regular feature of catering, especially in all-inclusive hotels. The perfect container for milk, juice, soft drinks... But also for breakfast foods such as cereals, which have their own specific dispenser.
Bread toasters
Bread toasters are a classic of the free buffet breakfast. There are different options, from the most advanced horizontal conveyor toasters for large catering to manual horizontal toaster single, which can be installed in a small space.
Machines for maintaining buffet temperature
Let the cold be kept fresh and the hot be as if it had just been taken out of the oven. This is the aim of the buffet that takes care of all the details. For this purpose, special furniture is available: furniture for cold food, for hot food and for neutral products (those that can be served at room temperature).
- For hot products
There are the hot showcases, the stew warmers, the soup kettles or the so-called "chafing dish", which keeps the cooked food warm.
In case the product has remained cold on the plate, it is important that customers have some microwaves at sight and that the kitchen has a professional microwavel oven.
- For cold products
The refrigerated islands are the quintessential furniture of the buffets that offer cold food, such as salads, seafood or cold desserts. If what you want to drink cold is a drink, the glass cooler machine is the appropriate complement.
Live cooking
Some caterers even have cooks who prepare or serve the food on the spot. Freshly squeezed juices, instantly prepared tortillas or freshly grilled fish. The most careful caterers even have electric crepe makers so that diners can start the day off right, with a freshly made crepe for breakfast.
Lime free water for coffees and teas
Water hardness can affect household appliances and cause a strange taste in drinks, especially hot ones, such as coffee or tea. This is why most buffets have a water softener. There are manual and automatic ones.
