Spotlight on South Of Beale: Stepping in with a Seamless Solution
Hey there, restaurateurs! We’re excited to bring you a story that might just change the way you think about something as seemingly mundane as ice.
Let’s go behind the scenes with successful restaurant owner Ed Cabigao. He owns South of Beale, which has grown to three locations, as well as Bangkok Alley, The Liquor Store, and Hen House. Ed shares some ice insights that might resonate with many in the hospitality industry.
The Inside Scoop
“It did make me think twice about ice,” Ed confesses. And trust us, after hearing his story, you might find yourself giving your ice machine a second thought too.
Ed recognizes the crucial role that ice plays in the restaurant business, not just in drinks but also in food preparation. He recounts the hassles of struggling with malfunctioning equipment and improvisations required when ice wasn’t readily available. Then, he gave us a call here at Memphis Ice Machine Company.
“Having a relationship with Memphis Ice for quite a while, it’s really helped us keep our ice consistent and clean because they do such a great job of servicing it every month and making sure the machine works right and works well,” Ed explains.
From Aging and Unreliable to a Top-Notch, Hassle-Free Solution
Before partnering with us, Ed says South Of Beale owned an aging ice machine that was giving him headaches. Instead of facing the daunting task of replacing and installing it themselves, we stepped in with a seamless solution. We not only provided a top-notch ice machine but also took care of the installation process, ensuring zero disruption to South Of Beale’s operations.
Reflecting on his experience, Ed offers some invaluable advice: “Anyone who is running a restaurant or thinking of owning or starting one up, it’s up to them whether they want to buy the ice machine or rent an ice machine, but regardless, Memphis Ice Machine Company is the only company I’d recommend.”
And that’s the bottom line, folks. We aren’t just another vendor; we’re your partner in success. With our reliable service, expertise, and dedication to keeping your ice game strong, you can focus on what truly matters—delivering an exceptional dining experience to your customers.
