What Is a Hot Food Table?
A hot food table or hot food bar, as its name suggests, helps warm pans of food and ingredients during preparation and serving. It is one of the most important pieces of commercial buffet equipment and is an excellent way to serve hot food at catering events, outdoor parties, and large dining events.
Most food-service establishments, caterers, and restaurants use an electric hot food table. Other hot food table units can run on natural gas. A hot food table is designed to accommodate various types of food that need to be served hot right away to customers and diners. A hot food bar generally includes steam pans that are designed to hold several different types of dishes. In addition, hot food tables commonly come fitted with a sneeze guard to ensure the hygiene and cleanliness of the food.
What Are Cold Food Tables?
Other important restaurant buffet equipment includes cold food tables, more commonly known as buffet stations.
Cold food tables are mainstays in salad bars and other restaurants or food-service establishments that offer cold buffets. They include full-sized serving or restaurant pans and can either be tabletop or freestanding. Freestanding cold food tables are excellent for restaurant owners that want to set up a cold salad bar where customers can conveniently serve themselves.
Most cold food tables feature casters for convenient transportation. Generally, tabletop cold food tables are more affordable than their freestanding counterparts, and can easily be transformed into a functional buffet station that is pleasing to the eye.
