The brief was to provide a much more interactive experience, allowing pupils & staff to see the cooking process. The kitchen has been re-designed to provide maximum flexibility and the servery now has a modern, softer look with contemporary ‘pull-down’ heat lamps on the hot counter to add to the ‘open’ feel. Design features include a window through to the baking area so that pupils can see cakes being made.
The new facility is already having a huge impact on both the staff and pupils, reducing queuing times, enhancing the presentation of the food, whilst also making it a talking point. We are absolutely delighted with the end result. CDG completely delivered on the brief, creating flexibility across both front and back of house within the constraints of a listed building.
