// THE CHALLENGE

Challenges & Difficulties

Upon receiving information and requirements from the investor, Saigon Horeca faced many difficulties and challenges. Renovating the existing kitchen area of over 70m2 required rearranging still-functioning equipment while ensuring proper operational functionality and the processing workflow of the entire kitchen.

Meticulous detail survey and functional optimization to integrate old and new equipment into the smoothest operational ecosystem.

To achieve this, Saigon Horeca's technical team had to conduct meticulous and detailed surveys over multiple days, evaluate each piece of equipment, and develop a detailed plan to integrate old equipment into the new system in the most reasonable and efficient manner.

Smoke Extraction & Fresh Air Supply System

The 8m long exhaust hood system is designed for parallel smoke extraction and fresh air supply in the cooking area. This system ensures continuous airflow, creating a comfortable workspace for chefs, minimizing stuffiness, and guaranteeing a fresh, well-ventilated working environment.

In the wash area, a 2m long exhaust hood system is also installed for independent smoke extraction and fresh air supply, ensuring the cleaning area remains clean, dry, and mold-free throughout the restaurant's continuous operation.
