What better proof that a griddle works than seeing it in action in a professional kitchen?
Esto es lo que nos preguntábamos cuando surgió la idea de como mostrar nuestras maquinas en funcionamiento, para que todos pudieseis ver como se comportan realmente.
To do that, before launching our new MAX series onto the market, we wanted to test how it responded to the pace of a demanding, professional service. Y para eso, no hay mejor laboratorio que una cocina.Por eso viajamos hasta el restaurante Cal Jaume, donde la cocina arranca cada día a las 5 de la mañana y donde, desde hace un mes, cocinan con nuestra nueva línea de planchas MAINHO.
A kitchen that doesn’t let up
We spoke with José Luis Molero, the venue’s chef, so he could tell us firsthand what he needs from a griddle day to day and what his experience has been like with the MAX.
The numbers speak for themselves: at Cal Jaume they typically serve between 150 and 170 diners during the lunch service, a figure that climbs on Thursdays thanks to their paellas All of this is matched by a menu that demands constant use of the griddle: meats, fish, vegetables, combo plates, and hot sandwiches.
The griddle stays on for about 7 hours a day, starting at 5 a.m. with the shift’s first sandwiches.
What stands out to José Luis about the MAX?
According to his experience after a month of intensive use, two things stand out:
- It’s not a heavy griddle. It bounces back very well in terms of power and temperature after each cleaning, something crucial when the time between dishes is limited.
- It’s very comfortable to work with. In a kitchen with that kind of volume, everyday comfort isn’t a nice-to-have, it’s a necessity.
.Designed to work hard, without wasting energy
The MAX was designed to deliver more performance and sustain it over time, even in services as demanding as Cal Jaume’s, and it achieves this by being more efficient, without using a single extra watt.
Thanks to José Luis and the entire Cal Jaume team for opening the doors of their kitchen and sharing their experience with us.
