Food Service Supplies and Equipment: Buying, Cleaning and Repairing

Hi, my name is Howie, and I have worked in restaurants since I was seventeen. Over the years, I have cleaned and serviced every type of food service equipment from meat slicers to potato peelers. I have helped my bosses buy equipment and figure out the best protocols for servicing, maintaining and repairing that equipment. If you have questions on food service equipment or other types of industrial equipment, you should be able to find the answers you need here. Please, get comfortable and explore these posts. I have loved my time in restaurants, and this blog takes me back to them in a virtual sense. I hope you enjoy these posts as much as I enjoy writing them.
