Everyone looks forward to indulging a wholesome dining experience with a delicious array of dishes complimented by a pleasing ambience. However, very few understand the importance of a well equipped and efficient kitchen, which is the very backbone of every successful eatery. A commercial kitchen is the central command base and should work like a well-oiled machine. Each section should be in harmony with one another, making the flow of food seamless and yet withstand the ruthless pressures of a busy night.

Lots of attention and precision must be given to the preparation of the food and drinks. Along with that, let us take a look at some indispensable linchpins to the kitchen area: the fittings. They may be small, nondescript and often overlooked; however they are vital in every commercial establishment. You can even call them the unsung heroes of a restaurant.

Kitchen sink: In the words of a US-based Masterchef and restaurant owner, “If there are no clean glasses and plates, drinks and food doesn’t get served. If there are no clean pots and pans, the food doesn’t get cooked.” A kitchensink needs to be big, strong, sturdy and well functional, in short, the super-hero. It should be made from good-quality alloys, so that not only can it bear the extensive usage but also not be a hub of hiding bacteria. It is the singular section of any restaurant, which is shouldering the immense responsibility of maintaining hygiene and cleanliness.
