Gas stoves are favoured in both commercial and domestic kitchens as they heat up at a faster rate and are more energy-efficient.
As gas hobs heat up at a faster rate and the gas power can be analysed visually, gas hobs are considered to offer a chef more control over how they heat their food.
Though it varies depending on the restaurant and the dishes they serve, common appliances in a commercial kitchen include a deep fryer, oven, pizza oven, stove, grill, ice machine and refrigerator.
A gas stovetop should be cleaned at the first signs of dirt and debris build-up. In a commercial kitchen, a gas stovetop may need to be cleaned daily and deep cleaned monthly.
