Maintaining order in your storage areas is essential to avoid sticky situations. A cluttered back of house can significantly slow down your operations, so it's crucial to keep everything organized in one designated area.

To achieve this, the Camshelving Universal Storage Racks offer the ideal solution for customizable storage. Let's explore three compelling reasons why incorporating them into your space is a game-changer.
Omelets. They might seem simple—a quick whisk, a little flip, a dash of filling, and order up! But any seasoned chef will tell you that mastering this eggy enigma is like a rite of passage. It's all about that delicate touch, a sixth sense for timing, and getting in tune with the mood swings of, let’s face it, a pretty finicky ingredient. Simple to make, sure, but to master? Not so much. And with the fast-paced environment of buffets, catering events, country clubs, and corporate cafeterias, there's more to consider than just the cooking.
At Sam Tell, we're nodding in agreement with every chef who's ever tipped their hat to the classic omelet. And because we know the true value of nailing this breakfast staple, we’re talking about gearing up—NYC restaurant style—to transform your induction omelet station from just another kitchen corner into the star of the show.
An omelet station isn't merely a part of the kitchen; it's a dynamic culinary stage that needs to be efficient, mobile, and most importantly, safe. That’s where Vollrath's induction technology comes into play, offering a solution that's as elegant as it is practical for every omelet station setting.
It is absolutely essential to have floor mats in every part of your foodservice operation.
