In 2018, he initially opened a spacious bed &amp; breakfast on the premises. During the pandemic, necessity led to the creation of a makeshift restaurant \u2013 which first developed into a bar and eventually into a fully fledged restaurant operation.<\/p>\n<p>Today, the property comprises 28 hotel rooms, more than 100 indoor seats and almost as many outdoor seats.<\/p>\n<p><strong>More space for higher ambitions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As the business grew, so did the demands on the kitchen. At the beginning of 2026, the property was therefore extended with a conservatory while the entire kitchen was redesigned at the same time. The result is a new kitchen offering around five times as much space as before.<\/p>\n<p>BKS Bedrijfskeukens was responsible for the planning and implementation. The equipment was supplied through our sales partner NordCap Nederland.<\/p>\n<p>The investment also reflects the experience gained over the past few years. In the early days, purchasing decisions were often driven by the lowest-cost option. Today, other criteria take priority: reliable technology, ease of maintenance, efficient energy consumption and equipment that fits seamlessly into the kitchen\u2019s workflows.<\/p>\n<p>Because as the business has grown, so have its ambitions. The stated goal: to earn a Bib Gourmand. The new kitchen provides an important foundation for achieving this.<\/p>\n<p>We are particularly pleased that IDEAL AKE technology is part of an establishment with such high aspirations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":14408,"template":"","referenzen_kategorien":[95,142],"class_list":["post-14402","referenzen","type-referenzen","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","referenzen_kategorien-gastro-kitchen","referenzen_kategorien-hospitality"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>De Kastanjefabriek | IDEAL AKE<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ideal-ake.at\/en\/references\/de-kastanjefabriek\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_GB\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"De Kastanjefabriek | IDEAL AKE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"From former factory to ambitious restaurant A former factory building dating back to 1832, someone with no previous hospitality experience and a determination to keep evolving: over the past few years, an exceptional hospitality business has taken shape in Eibergen in the Netherlands, close to the German-Dutch border.
