Bosch Siemens Gaggenau interactive training

Its Crazy season again. That time of the year when our production pulls out all the stops to manufacture a record number of kitchens, for all our customers who have invited their families over for Christmas, to their hope-to-be-completed-in-time new homes. Despite the high drama, and Sales Management attending the Robin Sharma leadership seminar - Optima was well represented at the BSH Home appliances Cook-up (Bosch, Siemens, Gaggenau) at their showroom in Midrand on Thursday the 6th of November















True to my nickname, the Lone Ranger, I flew the Optima flag high, as the BSH team introduced new dishwashing technology and some new and alternative cooking methods to various industry members.
In the Gaggenau kitchen we prepared steamed veggies in the counter top steamer, Prawns grilled on the Tepanyaki in lemon, butter and garlic, Pizza on the Pizza Stone and a beef fillet in the steamer.

















In the Siemens & Bosch showroom there was a pastry showdown, as industry members prepared an array of creative bread to be tested in both a Steam oven, and a regular oven. Needless to say it was Optima’s creative genius that won hands down; despite the other teams having the advantage of baking their bread in the steam oven, as the bread out of the steam oven was notibly both crispy-brown and moist.
An afternoon of learning about Ceramic grillers, quantum speed ovens, and EPS plus ovens, was hard work, as sausages, flapjacks, muffins and more pizza, fed more than our intellectual hunger.

















And alas, alls well, ends well, as the hard work of both the hosts and the attendees was rewarded with a swell sociable supper at the Grill shop in Monte Casino.
A big thank you, to the entire BSH team for a well rounded day!
Ciao,
Karel
