Consistent, flexible, easy to use.
As chef/owner of the award-winning neighborhood restaurant Terra American Bistro, Rossman knows that time and space are valuable commodities. With just five employees in the kitchen, everyone and everything is under pressure to perform. “The amount of work and labor that you save using a RATIONAL is difficult to understand unless you are a chef/owner,” Rossman said. “The product consistency, the ease of use, the many functions … it’s perfect for smaller operations and also keeps the footprint smaller.”
Just over half of Terra’s menu items are prepared in the RATIONAL.
“We use the intelligent cooking processes for everything: overnight short ribs, cakes, bacon, crème brûlée,” Rossman said. “Sometimes we even create our own programs.” His RATIONAL sales manager is available to help if needed. Chicken is prepared with the RATIONAL chicken Superspike, and he uses the RATIONAL for catering to quickly and easily re-therm food before serving.
When COVID-19 struck in March 2020, Terra pivoted to take-out and curbside pick-up. Relying on the RATIONAL, Rossman and one employee were able to meet customer demand and keep their regular guests happy and well fed.
