Our Bistro Has Three Kitchenaid Artisan Stand Mixers

Last week my mom and I were out having an early lunch at a quaint little bistro down the road from my little sister’s apartment in the city and happened to notice that they had three Kitchenaid Artisan Stand Mixers that they were using. This little shop is pretty cool because you can sit up on their inside deck that looks over the kitchen and watch your meal being made right there in front of you. The cooks all put on a show for the people watching so it’s just as much entertainment as cooking. I found it interesting that all three of the stand mixers were running almost non-stop. One cook was running two of them at the same time and it looked like he was making of few different batches of the home made bread that they use for sandwiches. I’ve always known that Kitchenaid makes a great stand mixer but it was pretty wild to see being used by these pros.
