Okay tell all - where are they, and what excited you about their products!

You mean Total Food Equipment! Great place. Friend of mine started up the one in Christchurch. There is also one in Napier.

cookessentials have they changed their name again as they were originally Food and Equipment.Have been in Rotorua for such along time now with different owners though.

One of my favourite stores! I've been buying equipment there for nearly 24 years, ever since I found it. It was tiny back then, but still had a huge range -far more than a happy cook could ever aspire to use!
Great folks to deal with, too. (In Depot St, people)
OOPS! Just looked at the website. Have they moved!

Yes,I was a regular customer when they were in depot street and usedto stock all the second hand catering eqipment. Not any more, only new stuff. Moved ages ago, new owners, not worthwhile 2nd hand because of TM so he told me.
