Restaurant Kitchen Installation - Bangalore

Project Overview

A multi-cuisine restaurant in Bangalore, seating around 80 covers, needed a kitchen that could turn out several styles of food from one 600 sq ft space. The menu ran from tandoor and Indian curries to Chinese and continental dishes, so the cooking line had to cover a wide range of techniques. Steelkraft designed and built the complete kitchen in grade 304 stainless steel.

The Brief

The owner wanted a kitchen that could plate a varied menu quickly at full covers without stations clashing. That meant a cooking line with distinct zones for tandoor, wok and range work, cold storage close to the pass, and a prep and wash area that kept the cooking line clear of dirty work. The kitchen also had to fit a defined floor without cramping the chefs.

Our Approach

We visited the site, checked the exhaust routing and drainage, and mapped a layout that ran the cooking line along one wall under a single hood, with clear stations for the tandoor, the Chinese range and the main burners. Refrigeration and prep tables went behind the line so cooks could reach ingredients without leaving their station, and the wash area was placed on its own path away from cooking. Every unit was fabricated in our facility and the layout was approved by the owner before any steel was cut.

Equipment Installed

• Cooking line with tandoor, Chinese range and open-burner range
• Continuous exhaust hood with grease filters over the line
• Under-counter and upright refrigeration close to the pass
• Stainless steel prep tables and cutting stations behind the line
• Wash sinks, pot rack and a compact dishwash corner

Outcome

The restaurant now runs its full multi-cuisine menu at 80 covers with each cooking style on its own station and no cross traffic through dirty zones. Keeping refrigeration and prep directly behind the line has sped up plating during peak hours, and the single exhaust hood keeps the whole cooking wall clear. The kitchen is covered by our after-sales service so any issue is handled fast.
