Whether you’re new to the New York City restaurant scene or you're a seasoned executive chef with Michelin stars, having the right kitchen essentials is key to your eatery’s success. 

There are so many different categories of restaurant equipment—and quite honestly, it can be easy to get lost in the sauce. Of course, there’s large-scale equipment like oven ranges and refrigeration units that you need for food prep and storage, but there’s so much more beyond those heavy duty pieces of equipment. 

And though you might think Sam Tell only deals in heavy duty items and kitchen design, we also have every single back-of-house smallware you could possibly need to make your kitchen run smoothly. While our list of smallwares is essentially endless, we highly recommend these products from Vollrath.

Available in nine sizes easily identified by their color, these durable one-piece dishers help you serve up accurate portions of food.

ice cream scoops

Ice Cream Scoops

Scoop up just the right-sized serving of ice cream with these color-coded ice cream scoops. And scoop all day without fatigue or freezing your hand, thanks to the patented ergonomic textured handles and encapsulated antifreeze, which also enables easy release of the ice cream from the scoop bowl. The colored end caps designate the capacity, ranging from 1 to 4 ounces for consistent portioning. And the durable cast aluminum ensures years of use in your ice cream shop, café or restaurant.

utility tongs-1

 

Utility Tongs

These durable stainless steel tongs have concave scalloped utility ends that preserve product quality in a gentle grip but also provide a secure hold so you won’t drop food while serving or cooking. These are an economical choice, as the two-piece design keeps costs down. That makes them a great item to stock up on and use throughout your kitchen, restaurant, bar or deli.

They allow you to efficiently serve a variety of foods in varying portion sizes, and the hooked handle prevents the ladles from sliding into the food vessels, plus it offers a convenient way to hang them close at hand. The handles are grooved for added strength, and the durable stainless steel withstands heavy use.


spatula utensils

Spatulas

These spatula utensils have a contoured, flexible blade that efficiently scrapes food from containers of any shape, from bowls to measuring cups to cartons, and they’re especially ideal for using with your nonstick cookware and bakeware. These durable utensils won’t lose their shape even when you’re using them in piping-hot ingredients like melted chocolate, and the unique contoured handle offers a comfortable grip. The one-piece design eliminates bacteria-prone food traps, plus they’re dishwasher safe.

In today’s kitchens, using color-coded cutting boards, each designated for a different food type, is safe, smart and practical.

Besides adding this element of safety to your kitchen, these cutting boards are extremely durable, featuring a high-density nonporous, nonstaining surface. They also resist cut-grooving but won’t dull your knives, and the nonskid design keeps these boards from sliding during use.
