“Welcome“, says master chef Thomas Wenger cheerfully. He welcomes us inside the newly established company restaurants at BHS Corrugated in Weiherhammer, in the Upper Palatinate district. The 44-year-old co-designed the two restaurants according to his own ideas. “News“ on the ground floor for the employees and “Elements“ for business customers and conference guests one floor above. His commercial kitchen is equipped with the latest SelfCookingCenter® and VarioCookingCenter® appliances, which are connected with the worldwide sites of the company through the digital platform ConnectedCooking.
If chefs from other countries are visiting, Mr Wenger invites them to his kitchen. They surprise customers in the restaurant by serving regional specialties that offer more variety. The guest chefs bring the appropriate cooking programs with them or they can simply download them from the RATIONAL database via ConnectedCooking. Once saved, the programs can be run on all appliances at the same time. “Thanks to new technology, I can guarantee our customers in all company restaurants around the world a wide variety of dishes at the same level of quality“, says Mr Wenger, “even if one of the chefs is absent for a while.“
