“In my opinion, RATIONAL should equip all Cordon Bleu’s schools worldwide.”

Chef Arnaud Guerpillon, culinary director

The RATIONAL solution.

Before we had RATIONAL, we needed to renew the material and techonology in our classrooms and production kitchens. I knew from the start that we need this technology, since I previously worked with RATIONAL.

Their equipment works excellently, endures a lot, their after sales service is the best and their equipment is also very easy to use, even the first quarter students use it for pastry. These are all very important values for us.

We have a production kitchen where we produce everything for our students, all fonds are prepared there, as well as staff meals and all the recipes. This kitchen is always in operation. Our classes are based on demonstrations from chefs to students. Chefs teach cooking and pastry techniques in the classrooms equipped with the SelfCookingCenter®. Afterwards, the students proceed to a second kitchen also equipped with a SelfCookingCenter®. There they have to repeat for themselves what they just learned. Each student has to prepare a plate or a complete meal after classes every day.

Benefits:
  • RATIONAL has helped us to become more efficient. We prepare everything with high precision enabling us to teach our students how to obtain good results. RATIONAL is 100% reliable in quality. When we insert 10 trays in a unit, all 10 come out with the same and excellent quality.
  • The equipment totally met our expectations, although this was no surprise, as we knew RATIONAL and that’s why we decided to get these units.
  • We are a school with high standards, proven by students who finished and went out into professional life being successful in their jobs. There is no better way of advertising for us, than our successful graduats.
