Available to view on RATIONAL TV.
Rational UK the leading manufacturer of thermal cooking systems has unveiled a new customer reference story video on RATIONAL TV, showcasing the successful partnership between Rational and The Smiths at Gretna Green Hotel. Located in the picturesque town of Gretna Green, Scotland, this luxurious 4-star hotel is renowned for its exceptional service, particularly in the realm of weddings. Head Chef Charles Gachomo and his team play a pivotal role in maintaining the hotel’s renown reputation.
The Smiths at Gretna Green Hotel prides itself on culinary excellence, serving breakfast, lunch, dinner, and award-winning afternoon tea, often catering to multiple weddings in a single day, sometimes as many as 6-10 weddings. To ensure the highest standards of food preparation, the hotel relies on Rational’s intelligent iVario and iCombi Pro cooking systems, which guarantee efficient and top-quality service for every event. The newly released video highlights the significant impact of Rational’s technology on the hotel’s operations.
Chef Gachomo enthusiastically shares his experience with the game-changing iVario cooking system, stating, “Before Rational, I used a six-ring burner and a traditional hot plate, which was predominantly gas. Ever since I purchased the iVario, it’s a lot more energy-efficient, more consistent, and faster. The chefs in the kitchen enjoy using the iVario. I consider it the Lamborghini of the kitchen.”
Furthermore, Gachomo praises the iCombi Pro for its exceptional finishing processes, particularly for plated vegetables and cooked meats served at weddings. He explains, “It only takes eight minutes to finish a plate that’s ready to go to the guest, as if you’ve just cooked everything from scratch. It’s an amazing piece of equipment and a great additional chef in the kitchen.”
