Our Newest Restaurant Build – The Crazy Crab Pot Kennewick, WA

We just completed our newest design build project for a local customer in Pasco.  The new restaurant is called The Crazy Crab Pot located in Kennewick,WA off of Hwy 395 and Vista Way.    They are offering service similar to other restaurants like the Crab Pot in Seattle, but with a more entertaining atmosphere and a Mexican twist on traditional seafood cooking.

What We Did:
We were responsible for the design of the whole restaurant, general contracting the project, and building the entire restaurant from the ground up.   Plumbing, Electrical, lighting design, tile flooring in the back of the house, installation of the hood system and walk-in refrigeration, installation of the cook line, and specification of all equipment.   We also sold and installed all furniture in the front-of-house, including the booths and tables, and designed and installed the bar area equipment.

Equipment Brands Used:

We are very happy with the result, and our customer is extremely happy with the way things turned out.    If you are looking into building a new restaurant and would like our expertise, we would love to meet with you!

Beware of the Off-Brand Fryer: A Cheap Fryer Buyer’s Guide

Alright people, listen up.  We have been getting a lot of requests for help converting some “off-brand” fryers out there, and I wanted to warn those of you who are thinking about buying one and converting them.   These “throw away” fryers are saturating the market due to their incredibly low prices, and big box food equipment site offerings, which give it a lot of visibility.

Is there anything wrong with an inexpensive piece of food service equipment?  ABSOLUTELY NOT.  But if it comes at the expense of no parts support, and little to no product support, then YES.  Here is a list of what we feel are acceptable good buy fryers at a great price, that have solid manufacturer support behind them when you need help.

Good Quality Fryers with Manufacturer Parts Support

1. logo-main

American Range makes a great entry level Fryer in their AF-35/40 or (AF-40).  It’s a two tube burner fryer with a 40lb. capacity.  You can buy this unit for around $799-$950 most places, depends on shipping costs (on our website too.  American Range AF-40 Deep Fryer)  They have great parts support, and you can buy this brand with confidence.

2. 

Pitco / Friolator is by far the leader in commercial frying equipment, and rightly so.  Their parts support, diagrams, and expert technical advice make it very easy to convert from NAT to LP, and the other way around.  You can find a decent 3 burner Pitco used for around $500.

3. 

Vulcan is another big name in the industry that has a great part support behind it.  Definitely a safe buy, whether it’s new or used.

4. 

Frymaster is a fryer giant in the industry,  they have superior part support as well for any issues that may arise.  And yes, they have conversion kits for their fryers, among other parts.

Words to the Wise

A good rule of thumb is if it’s not a well known brand, there probably won’t be good part support, which usually equals no ability to convert the fryer.

If you need help with your fryer, or would like to buy a good quality fryer at a great price, give us a call at Western Equipment Sales.  We would love to come along side and partner with you and your food service establishment.
