LYMPSTONE MANOR
Case study
Michael Caines MBE
Chef Patron of Lympstone Manor
Michael Caines, Michelin Star Holder, Chef Patron of Lympstone Manor in Devon, shares his experience as a proud owner of a full range of Foster equipment!
“Refrigeration will pull a huge amount of power, therefore contributing hugely to the electric bill, so we were looking for product that had an environmentally friendly approach to refrigeration, and I think that’s one of the key factors that Foster offers.
“Durable, long-lasting, reliable and cost-effective.”
We chose Foster for Lympstone Manor because we were looking for something that was durable, long-lasting, reliable and cost effective.
The kitchen is a hot environment so Foster helped us deliver refrigeration regardless of the circumstance.
One of the key factors with refrigeration is getting quickly to temperature (...) so having the right equipment in the right place at the right time, being able to segregate fish, meat, vegetables, is really important. These factors all weighed heavily on our decision and as a result, we use Foster for all of our kitchens.”
There’s certainly a Foster for everyone, and we are proud to be Michael Caines’ choice!
