Masu, Auckland

Dedication to detail and a passion for flavour are key to the success of this Sky City restaurant and bar in the heart of Auckland. Located in the Federal Street dining precinct, MASU brings a contemporary twist to the traditional robata style of cooking over an open charcoal grill. The lively, informal atmosphere is enhanced by the open kitchen, where knives are placed in one direction only and the addition to detail is flawless, to the point where wait-staff use a laser beam to straighten the chopsticks at each place-setting before guests arrive!

When choosing equipment for the open kitchen, chef-owner Nic Watt looked for products that would ensure ingredients were easy to find and retrieve during service in a fast-paced kitchen environment. SKOPE’s Pegasus range offered a gastronorm solution to fulfill his requirements, with the drawer system and gastronorm trays meeting the requirements of such a busy workplace.
