There really is no greater excitement for a chef than building a new kitchen.
Everything as you want it, everything where it should be and the tools you want, where you want them. Draw all this up and put it on paper for the contractors and builders to perform their skills and deliver on their promise and VOILA.....
The kitchen you never ordered.... ?
You know the reason why I have so much belief in chefs and pastry chefs in this world is that we are about the only people left who actually have to deliver everything EXACTLY as the client wants it or we get huge trouble for it. Chef's can't deliver late, we can't deliver sub-standard work, we can not substitute products for something else and we can't say we are out of stock !! Chefs should rule the world !
I went and spoke with a Equipment Rep yesterday, I told him I wanted the R5 he looked up the R6, Why, .....because he gets a bigger commission from selling me the R6 for sure, not the one I really need or want or the one that best suits y kitchen!!
Contractors look at your requirements, think for themselves and deliver whatever they want, a chef has to deliver a dish of food as the guest perceives it, value for money or greater value than they pay in most cases,and within 15-20 minutes or LOOK OUT....if there is not enough salt we have to hear about it......for a contractor if their is ONE CRACKED TILE I complain and he thinks I should get over myself !!!!
Anyway,Thankfully all is working to plan now and just letting you know that the kitchens are about ready despite some delays and the store too is absolutely gorgeous....New three deck oven is in transit, as is...well.... pretty much everything else...
