Thames Valley Catering Equipment Wowed By Royal Genware Tableware

Leave a comment

Thames Valley Catering Equipment is very proud to be able to supply a full range of Royal Genware Tableware to the Catering Industry. For many years Thames Valley Catering Equipment has supplied virtually every piece of catering equipment that is of use to the Catering Industry and it is always looking to keep its full range of products as up to date as possible and therefore to reflect the needs of its customers. The catering business has always been extremely competitive and in the present time of financial cut backs and belt tightening this is even more important and it is necessary for the restaurants, cafes and catering establishments to have the best chance of competing successfully with its competitors. Food presentation has always been very important but these days even the small establishments are expected to achieve very high standards and to make this happen there not only needs to be excellent food quality but also it needs to be presented in the right way and on the right crockery.

Thames Valley Catering Equipment has recognised this need and is very pleased with the full range of Royal Genware Fine China Tableware which it is able to supply to the industry. This Royal Genware Fine China is their Classic design and is made to give the china a pure white appearance, which has been made with alumina in its mixture to give a low water absorption whilst giving the finished article a strength that can deal with the rigours of the catering industry. The hard work that crockery and china has to deal with in the catering trade is one of the reasons that Thames Valley Catering Equipment has chosen the Royal Genware range. There are some excellent plates to present the food on with the Classic design having a wide side rim whilst the Coupe design has a flat base with a curved edge. If none of these designs fit the bill there is the Genware square plate range. All of these designs work well in a restaurant or eating establishment and can be sourced in a range of sizes.

Thames Valley Catering Equipment is particularly pleased to promote the Royal Genware range of presentation plates and dishes, which certainly give the user a great advantage over many of their competitors. The range covers quite a number of different options with an oblong single, double or triple spaced dish, which allows a range of different presentation methods to be achieved. The whole business of getting the best out of the fine china has been examined and the results, which have been achieved are excellent. The Royal Genware Fine China Tableware also produces a range of dishes for sandwich and small meal presentation which is ideal for the lunchtime or teatime trade as well as the establishment that provides drinks and snacks in the evening.

“Thames Valley Catering Equipment is pleased to announce that the price range of this Genware range is excellent and will provide a great advantage to the establishment without breaking the bank.”

Leave a comment

They supply equipment of the highest quality at very competitive prices for a very competitive market. All the equipment can be purchased on the Internet for delivery in a few days. Expert advice is available if required and Thames Valley Catering is only too pleased to ensure that the customer is completely satisfied.

Now that summer is around the corner and the weather is showing signs of emerging from the Siberian winter that the whole company has endured people wish to get outside and enjoy the weather and the outdoors. Barbecues are all the rage at home but the professional barbecues are less common. There has been many a comic who has made fun of the best way to burn good food is on a barbecue but Thames Valley Catering is pleased to promote one of the kings of the barbecue business namely the Cinders Slimfold Hotelier Barbecue as a piece of equipment that totally disproves this myth. This is a luxurious piece of equipment built by a British company based in North Yorkshire who has developed excellent equipment for the commercial trade. The Company has now developed into the USA and has an excellent business in Florida, a good USA home to the barbecue.

The Cinders Slimfold Hotelier Barbecue is a piece of catering cooking equipment designed to be erected outside in minutes and to fold away to a flat square when finished. This is ideal for the hotel or restaurant that holds or wants to hold an outside barbecue as a regular feature. The set-up is in minutes and powered by bottled propane gas it heats up in less than five minutes ready for cooking to start. Thames Valley Catering is impressed with the Cinders Slimfold Hotelier Barbecue quality of manufacture being made with stainless steel shelving and mahogany ends with flush fitting controls, this gives a superb look to the barbecue and the quality and speed of the cooking is second to none. The working top has two off 800mm x 457mm heating zones so that one can be used for one product and the other for another product. Therefore fish can be cooked on one half and meat on the other half of the grill. The Cinders Slimfold Hotelier Barbecue has a fitted stainless shelf that fits on 2 runners so that it can move over the full length of the grill, this is ideal for cooking vegetables on if required and also is used to clean the grill at the end of the evening. To clean the grill put the shelf over the top of the half to be clean turn the gas up to full and after a short time all the waste has been burnt off the grill by reflected heat from the shelf and the unit can be wiped clean.

Thames Valley Catering are pleased to note that the Cinders Slimfold Hotelier Barbecueoffers the outside caterer an excellent piece of equipment, with a 2 year warranty that is as versatile as any barbecue with a quality and production rate second to none.

Thames Valley Catering Are Looking After The Dishes

Leave a comment

Thames Valley Catering Equipment is able to supply a vast range of catering equipment to all parts of the trade from the restaurant to the large hospital and company kitchen but they also try to seriously look after the smaller user as well. With this in mind Thames Valley Catering is pleased to promote the smaller range of Sammic commercial dishwashers aimed at the smaller cafes and restaurants and other smaller catering establishments. The smaller units sometimes feel a little left out as the large companies seem to have all the best equipment but Thames Valley Catering is able to offer some excellent Sammic dishwashers to satisfy even the smallest requirement.

The company realises that any dishwasher is fairly costly and for the smaller unit that can be very important but the Sammic range is very good in quality and excellent in price. The Sammic SL-23 front loading dishwasher is a very good example of the type of equipment available having a 400 mm x 400 mm square basket, which will turn round a complete load in 180 seconds. This speed of operation will bring savings on crockery purchased and will give an excellent finished product. There are other savings to be made in water usage as the Sammic front loading dishwasher uses an optimal water flow system to reduce usage to a minimum. Sammic have fitted a detergent dosing system for speed of usage and there is an automatic rinse aid built into the dishwasher to ensure a high class finish.

Thames Valley Catering Equipment has a great deal of faith in these units, as they will bring serious savings to the business. The first saving is obviously in operator costs, as the speed of this unit will reduce the dishwashing time to around 20% of the hand washing systems. Secondly there are savings in crockery stocks and also in water and detergent usages. The dishwasher from Sammic will fit in well in a small kitchen as it requires little working space that is often at a premium in the smaller establishments and yet it has a high workload potential for such an establishment.

The Sammic SL-23 front loading machines are also ideal for larger concerns that need an extra machine either as a spare for the disaster day that the larger machines are broken or out of action for major cleaning of the present unit or as a separate unit for certain goods for example glasses or other special delicate products. The units are flexible and the space requirements are small and are ideal as a “Get of jail” card.

Thames Valley Catering Equipment would be delighted to answer any queries or give advice on the best and most appropriate Sammic dishwashers, there are years of experience available in the company and any question posed will almost certainly have been posed before. Sammic dishwashers have been around for some time and the quality and technology is excellent for the conditions they have to work in and the work they have to do and Thames Valley Catering Equipment is pleased to recommend their usage.
