UNIVERSITY OF WARWICK ADDS FIFTH VARITHEK SELF-VENTILATING COOKING UNIT
The University of Warwick now has five Rieber Varithek units, three used for mobile cooking and two fixed units.
One mobile Varithek recently caused a Wow! at a Saturday night function, where it was used for cooking and serving hot canapés including Kobe beef brochettes and king prawn frittatas.
A Varithek mobile unit has also been used by Warwick Conferences for a Hell’s Kitchen event, an exercise designed to take managers out of the classroom and put them under the spotlight, challenging their leadership, team and practical skills in a fun yet pressurised scenario.
Two teams of 12 took part in a recent Hell’s Kitchen, challenged with producing a three-course meal for 40 diners including senior management from their company. Professional chefs using the Varithek demonstrated how to cook the three courses. Being fully mobile and self-ventilating, each team could stand around the unit and get a clear view of what cooking skills were required. After this, they went into the main kitchen to battle it out.

Another of the University’s Varitheks is built into the counter in the Scarman building. “This unit is used particularly for demonstrating private dinner menus. Cooking the food in front of the client helps us to upsell the menu,” says Graham Crump.
During fresher’s week, a mobile Varithek was used to show students how to cook simple dishes for themselves, including pasta, chicken casserole, savoury pancakes and a stir-fry. “We also work with Old El Paso to demonstrate how to cook fajitas for students at home,” says Graham Crump. “Varithek really is very versatile; you can just move it around for various events.”
