Director of Food & Beverage, St. Andrews Country Club,
Boca Raton, Florida
St. Andrews Country Club is quite simply, one of a kind. Inspired by a legacy of fine living, today’s Club is a vibrantly social and active private membership community of unmistakable character and enduring quality.
Matthew Darnell is the Director of Food & Beverage at the club and he recently recorded a short video describing his experiences of using EcoServe and EcoBurner. St. Andrews switched to EcoBurner last November because they wanted to move away from traditional chafers to a system that is more environmentally-friendly. Matthew has received positive feedback from club members mentioning the clean and updated look ever since he put the EcoServes into use at the club.
Matthew has estimated that the club has saved approximately 3,000 sternos from going into landfills since they started using EcoBurner less than a year ago. Thats a really significant prevention of single-use items hitting our landfills.
The fact that Cool Packs are available to use at the buffet disply is also a great benefit to Matthew because it allows him to easily switch between hot or cold service. Since the club serves buffet outdoors quite frequently, the EcoServe’s work really well because they are completely windproof and require no electricity or cables so can be easily set up in any outdoor location.
Matthew summarised why he recommends EcoBurner;
- Enhances the look of your day-to-day buffet set-ups.
- Reduces waste for the environment.
- Great indoors and outdoor capabilities.
- Easy to use for staff.
