Uh, yeah sure....
I once had the chance to peek my head into the kitchen at Alinea, the avant-garde Chicago restaurant that’s also one of the top-ranked in the world. It looked nothing like I expected. The standard elements of commercial kitchens, with their industrial griddles, stoves, and salamander broilers, were almost completely absent. Instead, it was just a long room filled with unadorned stainless steel tables. If a chef needed to sauté something, they simply grabbed an induction burner–a magnetic-based hotplate that generates no ambient heat–and brought it to their spot.
Article goes on to claim a "hang on the wall" induction cooktop may replace a stove top in the future. Vaguely reminiscent of the old Frigidaire fold down burners from the 50's.

I don't believe, I don't see these being up to heavy usage,and most restaurants use aluminum cookware. |

and heart pacemakers are not compatible. But I'm sure I mentioned this before, the last time this type of conversation cropped up. |

I'm probably making this up (insta-fact) but I thought I read somewhere that all new builds in Brittan had to have induction cookers. So the health issues must be covered.(?) |
