The
complete layout, designed on the RACS CAD system, was a joint effort
between RACS and the client. After several alterations to the original
specification, the completed design provides an ergonomic means of
satisfying the varied calls on the kitchen from the different function
suites, restaurants and bars within the building.
The owner specified a very tight
timescale, to ensure that the facility was up and running in time to catch
the Christmas trade, and RACS kept to that time schedule. Not-withstanding
late deliveries and other problems with the equipment manufacturers, the
kitchen was completed on time, enabling the Inn to open at the end of
November, catching the Christmas trade.
With the distance from Swansea to
Somerset no longer presenting a major problem, the modern road network
enables RACS to provide a same day service to customers in the South West
of England. |
| Located
in the heart of the Somerset Levels, the village of Langport boasts one of
the leading eateries in the area. The Kelway Inn, which used to be the
home of the oldest plant nursery in the country, founded in 1847 by the
Kelways family, combines excellent restaurant facilities with a small
number of rooms for guests.
At the centre of the catering is
a RACS designed and installed kitchen, combining gas and electric
equipment for maximum efficiency. This serves the bar, a bistro restaurant
and an a la carte restaurant, catering for the wide needs of the
clientele. The facilities within the Kelway Inn include a series of small
function rooms, a 200 seater function suite as well as the 8 en suite
bedrooms, and for relaxation, there is a custom built skittle alley.
The new kitchen includes a gas
combination oven, range, steakhouse and charcoal grills and deep fat
fryers, while electrically, there is a purpose built dual compartment
'walk in' deep freeze and cold room, refrigerated counters, servery
counter with Bain Marie, 11 chilled drink display cabinets, ice makers,
dish and glass washers and extract canopies. In addition, all of the
racking, benches etc. were specified and installed.
