Rational India | Who likes what: The world's favourite takeaway food
/
It's easy to understand why Europe likes pizza. Just as sushi is at the top of the bestseller list in Japan and Chinese food in China. But sushi in Brazil? Pizza in Saudi Arabia? Chinese food in Australia? Turkey is into pasta, while Russians prefer kebab, which you think you'd find more in Turkey. And in India, the land of curries, people also prefer pizza. Has the world turned upside down?
Obviously, tastes have become more international, especially in takeaway food, so local cuisine has to adapt to more diverse recipes. "Not all food is equally suitable for takeaway or delivery," knows Stephan Leuschner, Key Account International for Ghost Kitchens at Rational.
"The best performing dishes have been pizza, pasta, and Chinese." These dishes are easy to prepare, can be brought to consumption temperature quickly, and transported in such a way that they also look good on the table at home. But Leuschner has another tip for a successful takeaway business: consistent food quality: "Especially when customers choose the same brand more often, they want to be confident they'll get the same food as last time." That's why he recommends intelligent cooking systems to his customers, such as the iCombi Pro combi-steamer, which allows cooking processes that have been defined once to run over and over again, ensuring the same quality every time. And not just for one dish, but for thousands of international recipes. So you could prepare the whole range of the world's favorite takeaway dishes with an iCombi Pro. And if tastes change a few weeks down the track, it doesn't matter - the iCombi Pro will manage.
