Welcome to the Pace Reps Foodservice Equipment Blog

America is a melting pot, and with the moniker comes great cuisines from around the world. We also like celebrations, of course, and when you combine the two, the result is a tendency to take a particular holiday, magnify it, and turn it into a big party celebrating ethnic foods and beverages. St Patrick's Day? Check. The Chinese New Year? Check. Cinco de Mayo? Absolutely!

Since the introduction of the first commercial bowl-type food processors by Robot Coupe almost a half-century ago, these units have become indispensable equipment to commercial kitchens around the globe -- and for good reason. No other machine provides quite the same versatility to chop, blend and mix that a bowl food processor provides. From processing puree diets for healthcare, blending sauces and salad dressings, chopping nuts and making bread crumbs, to mixing doughs and batters, bowl food processors provide solutions considered essential to almost any foodservice operator.

If the adage “simplicity is the best policy” can be applied to food, then it would suffice to say that hummus is one of the best foods out there that fits this description. Made from chickpeas, (which is what hummus means in Arabic), garlic, lemon juice, and Tahini (an oily paste made from pressing sesame seeds), hummus is both delicious and healthy. And with Robot Coupe, making your own hummus is a breeze!

It almost goes without saying that having a great menu featuring quality food, along with a comfortable and enjoyable dining atmosphere, are keys to success in any restaurant establishment, and the most successful Mexican style restaurants know that formula exceptionally well.

Robot-Coupe has come up with another ingenious piece of equipment that simplifies several tasks in a commercial kitchen. Ideal for use in restaurants, hotels, nursing care facilities, day care centers and hospitals, the Blixer combines the features of a bowl type food processor and a blender/mixer, ultimately allowing for the production of incredibly smooth and homogenized menu items.
