Ilhan Guler, whose hotel was established in 2014, operates 17 pieces of RATIONAL equipment. He says he was introduced to RATIONAL through a chef friend, and that he was impressed by a RATIONAL demonstration he attended and by a factory visit at the time. Guler goes on to say that RATIONAL SelfCookingCenter® is their weapon of choice in the kitchen for a whole host of cooking ranging from breakfast to pastry products, banquets to dinners, and added, thanks to RATIONAL, they saved time, achieved higher quality results, and managed to produce consistent cooking quality every day.
“Thanks to RATIONAL, last minute preparations for banquets are now easier. Whether it is for 500 or 1,000 covers, there is practically zero risk. This has been a significant advantage for us,” said Guler. Of all the products made in the hotel kitchens, 80% are cooked in ovens. This means that RATIONAL is the heart of the kitchen. Thanks to the flexibility of use it offers, cooking is now much easier! Guler says, “Everything is so practical now thanks to the one-button cleaning function of the equipment that senses dirt and limescale. It notifies you the cleaning is due and recommends the appropriate cleaning programme.”
