Recently awarded with a SMART Label 2017 at HOST Milano, HOUNÖ brings a digital revolution of the food service industry to the UK. HOUNÖ’s Let’s Cook is an award-winning cloud ecosystem, which gives you a real-time overview of your oven fleet.

Let’s Cook is now available in the UK. The Let’s Cook Cloud Solution is a new digital tool for the food service industry. It makes valuable services available in a user-friendly digital solution, which is scalable from individual restaurants to global restaurant chains.

“We saw a lot interest in Let’s Cook at HOST Milano, and we are happy to introduce our award-winning cloud solution to the UK market,” says business development manager Vincent Van Delft CFSP from HOUNÖ.

HOUNÖ has developed Let’s Cook based on industry input. Therefore, the cloud solution addresses concrete challenges in the industry. This makes essential activities easier and cheaper – and thus more competitive.

Let’s Cook enables smarter and more efficient workflows in the kitchen

With Let’s Cook, menu management becomes simple, fast and safe. Let’s Cook facilitates distribution of recipes and software from chains’ headquarters to each connected oven in the restaurants. Furthermore, Let’s Cook gives you a quick and easy overview of your oven fleet and it will notify you before any operational problems arise.

“This allows for proactive prevention of any operational issues and eliminates the ovens’ downtime, which we know is of major importance to a restaurant’s earnings,” Van Delft says.

The cloud solution allows you to monitor usage and product performance live. At the same time, you have access to an HAACP library that documents the cooking processes. You can use this information to calculate running costs, giving you increased control and a good opportunity to optimize your procedures.

As Van Delft explains, “We know the right usage pattern minimizes both monetary and environmental costs. For example, you can limit unnecessary use of electricity, water, etc. by avoiding so called bad habits such as always keeping the oven warm or always using the long cleaning program.”
