Upscale Concession Stands

The Mobile Cooking Buffet Impresses Hungry Sports Fans

— September 19, 2011 — Art & Design
Not every sports enthusiast can appreciate a greasy hotdog stand, which is where the Top Food Mobile Cooking Buffet comes into play. Giacomo Abba has reinvented the stadium concession stand in favor of improving the equipment and the image of portable public cookers.

The design focuses on achieving a hi-tech minimalism through the use of an aluminum frame, laminate panels, curved transparent plexiglass and a Corian countertop to serve up a sleek impression. The Juventus Football Club transportable kitchenette comes in a model with hotplates as well as one with refrigerating plates to suit whatever food and drink are on the menu. The Mobile Cooking Buffet allows the chef to prepare dishes right before the patron's eyes, adding a gourmet appeal to an otherwise informal concept.
Trend Themes
1. Hi-tech Minimalism - There is an opportunity to incorporate a similar sleek design into other mobile food carts and concession stands to attract customers who appreciate a modern aesthetic.
2. Mobile Food Preparation - Using mobile cooking buffets to prepare quality dishes in a variety of locations creates a unique dining experience and could be a disruptive innovation in the food truck industry.
3. Gourmet Appeal - Upscale concession stands that offer gourmet food options have the potential to redefine the stadium food experience and could lead to increased revenue for sports arenas.
Industry Implications
1. Sports Concessions - Revitalizing the image and equipment of concession stands could lead to increased sales and revenue for sports venues.
2. Food Truck - Introducing mobile cooking buffets with gourmet dishes to the food truck industry could disrupt traditional fast food options and attract customers looking for a unique dining experience.
3. Event Catering - Offering mobile cooking buffets with modern and sleek designs could elevate the image and appeal of event catering, allowing for increased market share and revenue.
