Restaurant Østergade 1: Authentic French gourmet experience in Randers, Denmark
Located in the heart of Randers, Restaurant Østergade 1 offers an authentic French gourmet experience where craftsmanship and quality go hand in hand. In the beautifully designed kitchen, owner and head chef Rene Stenholt, together with his team, insists on making everything from scratch – from baking bread and pastries to preparing their own stocks and sauces. This approach requires both time and precision, but with the HOUNÖ Invoq Stackit solution, Østergade 1 has elevated its kitchen capacity to new heights.
Flexible cooking: the optimal solution offered by Invoq Stackit for a busy restaurant
The Stackit solution combines an Invoq Combi with injection steam and an Invoq Hybrid, which combines both injection and boiler-based steam. This flexible setup allows the team to handle multiple cooking processes simultaneously without requiring additional floor space – a crucial factor in a busy kitchen.
Flexibility and Precision in the Kitchen
“We have programmed all our most frequently used recipes into the ovens. This ensures we achieve the same quality and the same results every time, regardless of who is cooking in the kitchen,” explains Rene Stenholt.
During our visit, Rene showcased one of the restaurant’s most iconic dishes: Pepper steak of beef tenderloin, first briefly seared on the pan and then perfectly finished in the oven to achieve ideal tenderness. Alongside, dark and light sourdough bread was baked in the second oven at extremely high temperatures, ensuring a crispy crust and airy crumb.
– Rene addsNormally, when we run service, we prepare fish using steam in the lower oven at 65 degrees while simultaneously pan-frying and grilling in the upper oven. This gives us incredible flexibility,
