Casual dining.

Colourful, bright and diverse. For a lunch, a beer after work, a cocktail and a small bite to eat: mozzarella sticks, burgers, salad bowls and steak. With the family or with friends. Your guests love what you do. They come for your signature dish, because of the reliable quality and because of the great entertainment. The important thing is that it does not become boring. You therefore have to keep offering new things. Ideas, dishes and cooking methods. At the same time, you need to move within the framework your guests expect from you. In spite of staff shortages, cost pressures and a small kitchen. Adding a delivery service? Seasonal dishes on the menu? Any change is still a challenge. But that is the fun of it after all.

Guest service knows no breaks but only perfection. Good preparation is all the more important at rush hour. With a cooking system that takes on routine tasks, masters all conceivable cooking applications, which produce the same quality time and time again, which works intelligently thanks to iCookingSuite. What is the size, quantity, browning and condition of the food? Recognised, and the cooking parameters are adjusted and on we go. The production planning will now take over. It informs you of what can be cooked together and proposes the time or energy-optimised order. Fresh products, frozen goods, pastries, sides, one or more trays – none of it a problem. Enter the desired result, start the cooking path, completed. Perfection in no time at all. There is no need to supervise, no matter who is operating the cooking system.

Eight guests, eight different dishes. Finger food, tapas, burger, pizza, chicken wings, wedges. Not forgetting the other tables in the restaurant, with just as many requirements. The kitchen is running at full capacity. The iProductionManager is too. As it is now preparing the different foods at the same time: wedges, chicken wings, tandoori chicken, baguette, zucchini slices and apple crumble. Fast, high quality and stress-free, even with untrained staff.

Spare ribs, pulled pork and beef brisket. Onion rings, gratin and chilli. The iCombi Pro can do that. It can even do it alone. As you can create your own tried and tested intelligent cooking paths. This means, trying out recipes, saving the desired result and transferring the cooking path to all iCombi Pro units. Either using a memory stick or with ConnectedCooking, RATIONAL's networking solution. Thanks to the simple and self-explanatory operating system, anyone with access rights can use the intelligent cooking path. To give your business your signature. For the side dishes. For the security of always serving the result your guests expect from you.

Food safety and work safety are important. Especially in the hospitality industry. This is exactly why you can also rely on the iCombi Pro here. Hygienically brilliant cleaning with the iCareSystem, automatic HACCP documentation – these are even accessible from any location via ConnectedCooking. High work safety thanks to low rack height of no more than 1.60 m. Also, the easy operation which virtually eliminates errors and as such guarantees that all food have a hygienically safe core temperature.

Networking is the rule in the hospitality industry: Ordering, billing and service - it all runs digitally and it is all synchronised. Just like ConnectedCooking by RATIONAL. Recipe transfer, unit control, hygiene data, software updates, MyDisplay settings, shopping carts and service remote access with the secure networking solution you can control everything centrally from your desk.

This can also travel around the world at a click. All you need is a PC, smartphone or tablet. Standardisation does not get easier than that.

Different kitchen concepts require different cooking systems. You can produce food internally and finish it externally. Front of house cooking? The iCombi Pro as a little extra in the kitchen to expand the menu? The cooking system is also very flexible in terms of size. It is tough and carefully manufactured. The focus is on high quality standards for suppliers, high demands in production, continuous improvement as well as its durability. It's no wonder that the oldest RATIONAL combi oven has been in use for 40 years.
