Introduction: Commercial kitchens are fast-paced, high-demand environments that require durable and efficient equipment. When it comes to work surfaces, stainless steel benches have become the top choice for professional chefs and restaurant owners. we will explore the numerous benefits of using stainless steel benches in commercial kitchens and how they contribute to a more efficient, hygienic, and productive culinary workspace.

Durability and Strength: One of the primary advantages of stainless steel benches is their exceptional durability and strength. Stainless steel is highly resistant to corrosion, rust, and staining, making it ideal for a kitchen environment where exposure to moisture, heat, and various food substances is common. Stainless steel benches can withstand heavy daily use, including chopping, pounding, and constant cleaning, without deteriorating or losing their structural integrity.

Hygiene and Easy Maintenance: Maintaining a clean and hygienic workspace is of utmost importance in a commercial kitchen. Stainless steel benches are non-porous, meaning they don't absorb liquids or harbor bacteria, making them easy to clean and sanitize. They can be wiped down quickly with mild detergents or sanitizing solutions, reducing the risk of cross-contamination. Additionally, stainless steel resists the growth of molds, mildew, and pests, ensuring a safe and sanitary food preparation area.

Heat and Fire Resistance: Stainless steel has excellent heat and fire resistance properties, making it an ideal choice for commercial kitchen benches. It can withstand high temperatures without warping, melting, or releasing harmful fumes. This feature is particularly important for areas near stovetops, grills, and ovens, where the risk of exposure to heat is high. Stainless steel benches provide a reliable and safe surface for food preparation, cooking, and plating.

Aesthetic Appeal: Apart from their practical advantages, stainless steel benches also offer a sleek and modern aesthetic appeal. They provide a professional and clean look that complements various kitchen styles and designs. The reflective surface of stainless steel can enhance the overall brightness of the kitchen, making it feel more spacious and inviting. Stainless steel benches can seamlessly integrate with other stainless steel equipment, creating a cohesive and visually appealing workspace.

Versatility and Customization: Stainless steel benches offer versatility and customization options to meet the specific needs of a commercial kitchen. They are available in various sizes, shapes, and configurations to fit different kitchen layouts and workflows. Additional features such as integrated sinks, shelves, or splashbacks can be incorporated to maximize functionality and efficiency. The ability to customize stainless steel benches ensures that they can adapt to the unique requirements of any kitchen operation.

Long-Term Cost Savings: Investing in stainless steel benches may require a higher upfront cost compared to other materials, but it offers long-term cost savings. Stainless steel's durability and resistance to corrosion and wear reduce the need for frequent repairs or replacements. Its easy maintenance and hygienic properties also result in less time spent on cleaning and sanitizing, leading to increased productivity and efficiency in the kitchen. Furthermore, stainless steel is recyclable, making it an environmentally sustainable choice for commercial kitchens.

Conclusion: Stainless steel benches bring numerous benefits to commercial kitchens, including durability, hygiene, easy maintenance, heat resistance, aesthetic appeal, versatility, and long-term cost savings. By choosing stainless steel as the material for work surfaces, chefs and restaurant owners can create a highly functional and efficient workspace that meets the demanding requirements of a professional culinary environment.

The Night Shift (part 7) (Frankie Morales x F!Reader)

So uh,,,,, it's been a while........ perhaps this is the end of my block? one can only hope. anyway, if you're still here, i love you <3

part 6 part 8

The rain didn’t stop for the rest of the weekend, instead, it seemed to move between a light drizzle in the afternoons to raging storms during the night. It had gotten so bad that Ethan had relented to driving you on both Monday and Tuesday, a task he had bemoaned the entire way. You had sat silently in the passenger seat, watching the water droplets on the window. 

“I can’t pick you up in the morning,” he said on Wednesday, pulling into the small parking lot behind the diner. Through the window, you could see the shape of Frankie sitting in his truck. 

“That’s fine,” you said. 

“Debra needs me to come in early at the office,” he explained, even though you didn’t ask why. You weren’t sure you really cared that the excuse sounded sketchy as hell. A six in-the-morning start? You weren’t stupid.

“Okay,” you said simply. You had an umbrella in your bag and knew you could wait out any major storms in the diner. 

“See you tomorrow,” he leaned over, gripped the back of your neck uncomfortably tight, and kissed you roughly. Ethan had never really been a pleasant kisser, or maybe he was a perfectly fine kisser, and kissing wasn’t something you really enjoyed. You weren’t sure.

You counted to five in your head and pulled away, the taste of ash in your mouth. He had been smoking again. Probably with his shithead friends, hopefully with the windows open.

I don’t like you anymore.

The thought came quickly as you looked at Ethan in the dim light and for a moment you were overcome with nausea. The truth of it rocked you, flipped your stomach.

Before you could dissect the thought too thoroughly, you dashed inside the diner, clothes soaking through quickly. Shivering in the doorway, you peeled off your heavy jacket and hung it up on the hook usually reserved for aprons.

You caught Frankie’s eye as you passed through the kitchen. The past couple of nights the rain had kept most people inside, meaning you were free to take over the kitchen (or at least part of it) as you saw fit, spreading out across the stainless steel benchtops trying to figure out if your love of adding an insane amount of lemon was perhaps too much for everyone else. So far, Frankie had been a willing guinea pig for your experiments.

The first couple hours into your shift kept you busy enough; mostly fellow night workers getting dinner and caffeine before their own shifts started. The rain kept most of the regulars away as the storm worsened through the night. 

It was almost midnight when the power went out.

“Oh, fuck,” you said setting down the coffee pot. You looked back at Frankie, who was looking at you. 

“Uh,” he looked at the spatula in his hand, as if seeing it for the first time. 

“Out,” you turned to the lone customer, handing him a to-go cup for his coffee. He left without much argument, allowing you to lock the front doors behind him. 

Through the rain-streaked glass, you could see rest of the street had lost power, creating almost absolute darkness that was broken only by the occasional flash of lightning. 

“I’ve turned off all the main switches in here,” Frankie called. You nodded. You hadn’t even thought of anything besides locking the doors and drinking the last of the coffee before it went bad.

Frankie appeared by your side, looking out onto the street. 

“Oh, see that?” He pointed into the darkness. You squinted and shook your head, moving closer to the glass. He took your shoulders gently, his grip firm. Your heart stuttered as he guided your body to better see. 

“About a hundred yards up,” he murmured. A tree, an oak probably, had fallen and knocked over a power line. 

You groaned. “That’s gonna take forever to fix.” 

“Do we have to stay?” Frankie still hadn’t moved his hands and every fiber of your being was aware of it.

You shook your head. “You don’t have to if you don’t wanna.”

“But you do?” 

“Not technically,” you said, “but I’ll stick around anyway, just until we can find out when the power will be back on.” Truthfully, you weren’t keen on walking home in that weather.

“Well, I’ll stick around with you. Want a sandwich?”

Less than ten minutes later, the both of you were sequestered in a booth with coffee, sandwiches, and a view of the fallen tree when the lightning flashed. 

“So, that was Ethan, huh?” Frankie broke the silence. You nodded without saying anything. Somehow, the sound of Ethan’s name coming out of Frankie’s mouth made you feel a little sick. It felt wrong.

The wind howled outside, the sound cut only by the rumbling of thunder. “Can I tell you something? And it can’t leave these four walls? Not even Manny can know because he will be so fucking smug about it.”

“Yeah, anything.” Frankie sat forward, all his attention on you. 

You bit down on the inside of your cheek, scared to say the words aloud. It was one thing to think them, to feel them occasionally in times of discontent, but it was another thing entirely to speak them into existence. Speaking them made them real, made it so you could never take them back.

“I - I don’t want to be with him anymore. I don’t like him as a person, I don’t think I’ve been happy in a while. I need to get out of that fucking place it’s suffocating me.” You paused, collecting your thoughts. Frankie waited silently, dark eyes on you. “But I’m really scared. Like more scared than I’ve ever been. It probably sounds stupid, with everything you’ve seen and done, like relationship drama, is probably so fucking inane to you.”

“It’s not,” he said quietly. You tilted your head, tears welling up suddenly. “Do you want advice or just an ear?”

“I don’t know,” you groaned and pressed the heels of your hands into your eyes, “I’m just so fucking confused.”

“What about?”

“Everything. I need a fucking therapist. Maybe I should ask for a sign to bite the bullet and break up with him.” Outside, a loud crash made the both of you jump as lightning struck another tree. ”Surely fucking not! That’s it! I’m gonna do it! I’m gonna- well, now that’s sorted, what’s new with you?”

“Just like that?” Frankie raised a brow. “What are you going to do?”

“I’ll sort it all out. Don’t worry about me,” you smiled, feeling light. Your chest, your shoulders, and your own soul felt like it had been put through the washing machine and had come out brand new. Was Frankie some kind of emotional wizard, able to extract and make sense of your clouded emotions with barely even a word? Or was that just the effect of finally being able to get all your thoughts together and hear them aloud?

You decided to give the praise to Frankie - after all, if he wasn’t here, you wouldn’t have even said the words. You wouldn’t have come to this decision. You grinned at Frankie, winning one of those heart-stuttering smiles back.

~ 

June had a way of making Frankie feel not so lonely. They could have been the only two people in the world, and he wouldn’t have noticed. It would have been enough for him. 

She had set up your phone against a pair of salt and pepper shakers, turning on a show she had been binging. June had been explaining the plot and characters, but he was barely even taking it in. Her earlier words rattled around in his brain, the declaration that she was done with Ethan. Frankie had spotted him earlier, in the parking lot dropping you off. It had made him feel . . . angry to see. So angry he had barely spoken a word to June all night until the power went out. Stewing in his feelings, hardly able to look at her for fear of snapping at her. He wasn’t mad at her. He didn’t even know what exactly he was mad at, but the feeling had lasted too long for comfort.

June’s laughter rang out, her eyes on the small phone screen. Frankie looked at her, repeating her words in his mind. She was done with Ethan, that much he was certain about. It was the only thing he was certain about. Everything else was murky, and confusing in his broken, rotting brain.

Pushing his feelings to the side, he decided to deal with them later. “How are you getting home?”

June glanced out the window. The sky outside was still dark and stormy, even though the sun should have been rising. “I’ll walk when the rain lets up.”

“It’s supposed to be like this all day,” Frankie said.

June groaned. “Really? You’re sure? Ugh, I’ll get an Uber or something.”

“You’re not getting an Uber.”

“No, it’s so far out of your way.”

“What if it wasn’t?”

“But it is, so your point is moot.” June was smirking triumphantly as if that put the matter to bed. Frankie rolled his eyes and shook his head.

“What if you come back to my place? Just for the day, to get your head together?”

June’s face softened. “Are you sure?”

“Positive.” Frankie’s voice was firm. “Plus, Benny is probably there and I know he’d love to meet you.”

“Only if it’s not a nuisance for you.”

“You would never be,” Frankie said. He meant it, every word. She never would be, not to him.

Once upon a time, the dishwasher was seen as a grandeur but now is an integral part of any new design or renovation of kitchens in Penrith. Dishwashers and installation options have different types and designs.

The Close packed Dishdrawer machines: 

Dishdrawing machines are a popular choice of the dishwasher in kitchens Penrith where you can select to run smaller laundry loads or have space constraints in your kitchen. Drawer dishwasher and single drawer dishwasher available, and in smaller or large sizes. This dishwashing machine was built to be installed into cabinets. These kitchens Penrith products have also come to be known as the drawers, dishwasher cupboards, two drawers, drawing dishwasher, and double dishwasher.

A Freestand dishwasher:

The versatile freestanding dishwasher is the most popular dishwasher in the market. Many buy one of these dishwashers when you buy a new dishwasher. Under the counter (a small break must exist) a standing dishwasher can be installed or set up alone in the kitchens Penrith, and a top and forefront can be placed in the dishwashing machine.

Completely or semi-integral stock dishwasher:

Such a dishwasher can be either a stock integrated dishwasher or a semi-integrative dishwasher, also known as Built-under dishwashers. Select one of the best dishwasher design that will match your kitchens Penrith layout when you look at dishwashers for sale.

The Beauty And Durability Of Porcelain Benchtops In Liverpool

Porcelain benchtops are becoming increasingly popular in Liverpool and beyond, thanks to their stunning aesthetics, durability, and versatility. Whether you're renovating your kitchen or designing a new one, porcelain benchtops offer a range of benefits that make them a practical and stylish choice. Here, we explore the unique features of porcelain benchtops and why they are an excellent option for your Liverpool home.

Aesthetic Appeal

Porcelain benchtops are renowned for their exquisite beauty, mimicking the look of natural stone such as marble or granite. Available in a wide range of colours, patterns, and finishes, porcelain benchtops can complement any kitchen design, from modern and minimalist to classic and traditional. The high-definition printing technology used in their manufacturing allows for intricate veining and realistic textures, providing a luxurious and sophisticated appearance.

Durability and Strength

Porcelain benchtops are incredibly durable and resistant to scratches, stains, heat, and impact. Made from a mixture of clay, minerals, and pigments, porcelain benchtops are fired at high temperatures, resulting in a dense and non-porous surface that is highly resistant to moisture and bacterial growth. This makes porcelain benchtops ideal for use in kitchens, where spills, stains, and heavy use are common, ensuring that your benchtops remain beautiful and functional for years to come.

Easy Maintenance

One of the key advantages of porcelain benchtops is their ease of maintenance. Unlike natural stone benchtops, which require regular sealing to protect against stains and etching, porcelain benchtops are virtually maintenance-free. They can be easily cleaned with mild soap and water, and stains or spills can be wiped away without leaving a trace. This makes porcelain benchtops a practical choice for busy households, as they require minimal effort to keep them looking their best.

Resistance to Heat and Fire

Porcelain benchtops are highly resistant to heat and fire, making them a safe and practical choice for kitchen countertops. Unlike other materials such as laminate or wood, porcelain benchtops will not burn, scorch, or discolor when exposed to high temperatures, making them ideal for use near cooktops or ovens. This heat resistance also extends to hot pots, pans, and dishes, providing added peace of mind and protection for your benchtops.

Eco-Friendly and Sustainable

Porcelain benchtops are an eco-friendly choice for your kitchen, as they are made from natural materials that are abundant and renewable. The manufacturing process for porcelain benchtops produces minimal waste and emissions, making them a sustainable option for environmentally conscious homeowners. Additionally, porcelain benchtops are 100% recyclable at the end of their lifespan, further reducing their environmental impact.

Versatility in Design and Installation

Porcelain benchtops offer a high level of versatility in design and installation, allowing for customisation to suit your specific needs and preferences. They can be seamlessly integrated with other materials such as timber, stainless steel, or glass to create a unique and personalised look for your kitchen. Porcelain benchtops can also be fabricated to any size or shape, making them suitable for both standard and custom kitchen layouts.

Porcelain benchtops are a stylish, durable, and practical choice for your Liverpool home. With their stunning aesthetics, easy maintenance, and resistance to heat and stains, porcelain benchtops offer a range of benefits that make them an excellent option for kitchen countertops. Whether you're renovating your kitchen or designing a new one, consider porcelain benchtops for a beautiful and functional addition to your home.
