Introduction
The Norfolk Mead is a renowned boutique hotel in Coltishall that has recently expanded their luxury offerings with the introduction of the Norfolk Mead Spa. As Multi Catering Technologies, already looks after their other two sites, the owners got in contact with us to help them bring their new spa kitchen to life.
The project brief outlines the need for a compact yet highly functional commercial kitchen that could serve up to 50 guests. The key requirements for the kitchen included an efficient layout that maximised space and improved workflow to ensure seamless service during peak times. They also required hygienic surfaces, that were easy to clean in between and at the end of service and a dedicated pot wash area for handling all dirty pots, pans, and cutlery, ensuring hygiene standards were maintained and operations remained streamlined.
Multi Catering Technologies started the project by putting a CAD drawing together of the dimensions of the room and designing the commercial kitchen to focus on quality, efficiency, and safety, ensuring the Norfolk Mead Spa could provide exceptional culinary services in line with their luxurious spa experience.
The kitchen walls were fitted with white food-grade plastic and stainless-steel cladding to ensure high standards of cleanliness and hygiene. Given the nature of a commercial kitchen, the flooring had to be robust and safe. Therefore, Multi Catering Technologies chose Altro Stronghold 30, a specialist safety flooring designed to minimise risk when in wet and greasy conditions.
Additionally, a crucial aspect of the kitchen functionality was the design, fabrication and installation of the extraction canopy and ductwork system, which handled both the fresh air supply into the building and the removal of Carbon dioxide from the gas equipment provided. Multi Catering Technologies fabrication and installation team followed the correct regulations given to design, build and install the custom canopy for this project.
Multi Catering Technologies successfully delivered a functional kitchen that aligns with the spa’s commitment to excellence in both relaxation and dining experiences
