Kurrawa Surf Club Chooses Adande for Performance, Efficiency, and Flexibility

The commercial refrigeration solution keeping one of Queensland's busiest hospitality venues running smoothly.

With 14 Adande refrigerated drawers in the upstairs kitchen — and another 14 installed in the Tower 28 Café downstairs — Kurrawa Surf Club is a shining example of how the right commercial refrigeration can transform kitchen performance. Located in the heart of Broadbeach on the Gold Coast, this iconic venue serves between 4,000 and 8,000 meals every week, making reliable hospitality equipment essential to keeping service fast, food fresh, and energy costs low.

High-Volume Kitchens Demand Reliable Refrigeration

To meet these demands, Kurrawa Surf Club chose Adande dual-temperature refrigerated drawers, supplied exclusively in Australia by Stoddart, a leading provider of hospitality equipment nationwide.

Their decision was guided by Commercial Kitchen Company, a proudly Queensland-based, Australian-owned business recognised for supplying premium hospitality equipment across the nation. With extensive knowledge of the industry and a reputation for helping venues source the right solutions at competitive prices, Commercial Kitchen Company recommended Adande to Kurrawa for its proven stability, space-saving benefits, and durability in high-volume environments.

“They hold the temperature better — more stable with less fluctuation — and the
food stays fresher for longer.”

These drawers are used for everything from fresh seafood like salmon and barramundi to frozen chips, crisp lettuce, and other high-value ingredients — all stored at optimal temperature for peak freshness.

Fridge to Freezer at the Touch of a Button

Adande's temperature range from –22°C to +15°C allows each drawer to operate as either a fridge or freezer. Temperatures can be adjusted in precise 1°C increments, giving chefs complete control. This flexibility lets chefs adjust quickly to menu changes, seasonal produce, or fluctuating service demand without adding extra equipment — a valuable feature for busy commercial kitchens.

Energy Efficiency and Food Quality in One

Thanks to its patented insulated tub technology, Adande reduces cold air loss when drawers are opened. This design keeps temperatures stable, cuts energy consumption, improves food shelf life, and reduces waste — all critical benefits for high-volume hospitality operations where every dollar counts.

Design for Workflow and Hygiene

With ingredients stored at waist height and fully visible, Adande drawers improve kitchen workflow and reduce strain on staff. Removable tubs make cleaning fast and efficient, ensuring hygiene standards are maintained without service disruption.

Supporting Hospitality Nationwide

Kurrawa's adoption of Adande refrigeration in Australia continues to support hospitality venues across the country — from beachside cafés to high-end restaurants — with refrigeration solutions that deliver consistent performance, energy savings, and operational efficiency.
