Keep Those Charbroilers and Broilers Clean!

One Fat Frog Restaurant Equipment is Florida’s number one destination for used commercial restaurant equipment. Aww yeah. A popular line in the One Fat Frog Restaurant Equipment Super Mega Warehouse in Orlando is the used tabletop restaurant equipment line. Part of the used tabletop restaurant equipment line are used tabletop charbroilers and used tabletop broilers. These pieces are perfect for smaller kitchens and food trucks. Here’s some sanitation and cleaning tips for used charbroilers and used broilers, courtesy of One Fat Frog Restaurant Equipment!

Charbroiler performance and optimal cooking results depend on proper cleaning. Products cooked on a charbroiler that exhibit well-defined sear marks (“branding”) are appealing to customers. During service, grates should be cleaned routinely with a coarse steel brush between product loads. Cooking grates should be routinely dressed with vegetable oil after they are wire-brushed to facilitate a clean, non-stick release when the food portion is turned. Poor cooking performance can also occur if the grates are clogged or closed due to grease buildup and improper maintenance.

Darden Employees Taking a Bite Out of Discrimination

Ruh-Roh. The Orlando Sentinel is reporting that more than two-dozen workers at Capital Grille restaurants in three states have sued Darden Restaurants, accusing the Orlando-based company’s high-end steakhouse chain of violating federal wage laws and discriminating against minority workers. The accusers state that the chain assigns minorities less desirable jobs. They are seeking class-action status for the suit, filed in U.S. District Court in Illinois. The suit was filed by Restaurant Opportunities Centers United, a NY advocacy group for restaurant servers, cooks, and related staff.

The lawsuit alleges that workers at Capital Grille restaurants in Chicago, Washington, and NYC were required to perform prep work off the clock before and after their shifts. Darden’s tip-sharing policy is also under the gun. Their policy requires tipped workers, who are legally paid less than government-mandated minimum wage because of these tips, to share a portion of their tips with hourly workers. You know what, I would be livid too.

A rep for Darden Restaurants called the claims “baseless,” as he leaned back in his chair made of gold and wiped his nose with a diamond.

One Fat Frog Restaurant Equipment believes that everyone of all color, creed, religion, deserves a shot at owning their own restaurant. No one is treated differently at our shop and no one is turned away. Stop working for The Man and open the restaurant of your dreams! One Fat Frog Restaurant Equipment can get you financed no matter what shape your credit is in. Bad credit is no problemo! Come into One Fat Frog Restaurant Equipment today!

———— Okay, Four Eyes Frog, I gotta PS this… as a business owner sometimes things aren’t as they seem.  Let’s see how this lawsuit settles… Darden may well have been employing fair business practices

Fundraiser for the GLBT Community Center of Central Florida

On Monday, February 6 at 8:00pm, the GLBT Community Center of Central Florida and the Jewish Community Center of Greater Orlando will be hosting the play “The Laramie Project.” The play concerns Laramie, Wyoming, where in June of 2008 members of Tectonic Theater Project visited to see how the town had changed since the murder of Matthew Shepard in 1998. The play examines how we construct our own histories, particularly in small towns.

The play is being presented by Baggy Pants Theater and is taking place at the Jewish Community Center of Greater Orlando in Maitland, Florida. Tickets are $15 and the Baggy Pants Theater is donating $5 to the GLBT Community Center of Central Florida for each ticket sold!

The GLBT Community Center of Central Florida has been in operation for 32 years and is a source of information, advocacy, and support for all of Central Florida. They offer a variety of support and social programs, including free HIV testing, counseling for individuals and couples at a reduced cost, and over 20 various social/support groups.
