Various types of ice are used in restaurants. As such you may need more than one ice machine. You may for instance, have a large salad, dessert or fish display area and require ice that will ensure attractive displays and ensure that the produce will stay cool for longer. In this case you will need a flake ice machine that can produce ice in its natural form. Since the ice has a granular structure it can easily be spread out on sloping surfaces. Super dice and gourmet cubes are suitable for beverages. In this case you will need to consider how many patrons visit the restaurant. If you have many patrons on a given day then the super dice cubes with their six sided shapes will be perfect as the machine will produce enough to ensure that you don’t run out of ice. The gourmet type is well suited for hotels and cuisine style environments.
