Coming soon- Star Trek Theme Dress Day

Our next theme dress day is Star Trek.  We are still up in arms whether it will be Old Star Trek or the newer ones… the debate is on!  Warehouse staff says we cannot mix Star Treks and that will be bad, so that we must decide which Star Trek is it old school or the Next Generation?

oldstartrekAnd what does Star Trek have to do with One Fat Frog Restaurant Equipment?  Absolutely nothing.  We just like to have theme dress days and this is the next one.

Face it = there’s more to life than restaurant equipment and we know that.  We try to make each day fun.  Let us take the pain out of buying restaurant equipment, no reason to search 10 sources to find your new and used equipment- let One Fat Frog be your one source FROG HOTLINE (866) 823-9818 toll free restaurant equipment.

Forklift Fantasies & the Restaurant Equipment Angels

Warehouse Fantasies

Warehouse Fantasies

We interrupt this commercial for selling new and used restaurant equipment for a little warehouse fantasy provided by the Restaurant Equipment Angels at One Fat Frog Restaurant Equipment.  Are you a forty-something warehouse or restaurant guy who had fantasies of Farrah Fawcett back in the 70s?  Well, look no further, call ahead and we’ll even feather our hair for you!

No, we’re not hiring for the warehouse this week and sadly this is not in the usual duties of the warehouse guys, but let me tell you… we’re still a pretty good place.

We go ABOVE & BEYOND in serving our clients!  And while we tease you the girls are in high heels, well the proof is in the pudding!  Here’s the pictures to prove it from our Charlie’s Angels dress up day.  The warehouse guys opted to dress as warehouse guys.

Do you need new or used restaurant equipment for your facility?  One Fat Frog works with independent and CHAIN restaurants.  We have a bid spec department and an outside sales department.  Give us a call at the FROG hotline.  A sense of humor, sense of style… well let’s just be honest wouldn’t you rather buy the best discounted equipment you can locally in Orlando?  Would you rather buy it from someone who is extremely knowledgeable, professional and looks good in heels?

the best week ever

Contact One Fat Frog Restaurant Equipment

For your information and a little Saturday night humor, we have two top-secret phone numbers.  We’ve been holding out, but now we’ll let you know:

  • The FROG hotline:  (407) 936-FROG  Imagine that this works like the bat sign but since we would be competing with big sky lights from Universal, we’ve just scrapped the frog signal and gone directly to the Frog hotline.
  • Better yet, want to call us on OUR dime?  Sure, call us at 1 (866) 823-9818 .  Please note this works as an 800 number does.  Sadly we regret that we will no longer be able to accept collect calls from prison inmates and Nigerian scammers.  But for the rest of you the toll free (866) 823-9818  number should work pretty peachy keen.

Want to contact oNe Fat Frog Restaurant Equipment by another means?  Might we suggest fellow culinarians do one of the following things:

  • hop in their jalopy and <pause of subtle frog joke there… insert laughter> cruise over to our showroom and warehouses centrally located at 1137 West Airport Boulevard, Sanford, FL 32773 which is near enough to Orlando and just far enough from Jacksonville to be sure that it’s worth the drive at our prices!
