FAQs

Who is the founder of Food Republic? ›

About Food Republic

Founded in 2010 by chef Marcus Samuelsson and the Samuelsson Group and launched in April 2011, Food Republic has deep roots in the restaurant scene.

Why does restaurant food taste better than home cooking? ›

One of these factors is the ingredients and equipment. Lack of ingredients or the special type of kitchen equipment can affect the taste of food. As the restaurant has access to all these, home cooking is at a loss here. Time preparation is another factor.

Is Food Republic reliable? ›

We source responsibly with robust supplier approval processes and put food safety first with our AA rated BRC accreditation, and our temperature-controlled fleet of vehicles.

Who is the chief who make food? ›

A chef is a professional cook and tradesperson who is proficient in all aspects of food preparation, often focusing on a particular cuisine. The word "chef" is derived from the term chef de cuisine (French pronunciation: [ʃɛf də kɥizin]), the director or head of a kitchen.

Which company owns Chicken Republic? ›

Chicken Republic is headquartered in Lagos, Nigeria. The company is a subsidiary of Food Concepts Plc, a Nigerian food based company. The company is arguably Nigeria's largest chicken restaurant chain with over 40 outlets in Lagos and over 190 outlets nationwide.

What makes a dish restaurant quality? ›

We first discover a dish with our eyes. The dish must be harmonious and balanced; its colours, shape, presentation or originality must be eye-catching. It must arouse our curiosity and make us really want to taste it, regardless of the technique or culinary style used (classic, new-style or evolutionary).

How do you make high quality food? ›

First and foremost, consider quality in everything you buy. The fresher and less traveled your produce, meat and fish are, the better flavor you'll get, and the more nutritional value they'll retain. This goes for everything, not just produce. Think about your vinegars, oils, herbs and spices as well.

How do restaurants make food so good? ›

Chefs season at every step of the cooking process

For restaurant chefs, this means seasoning at every step and tasting as they go to ensure each component tastes great. Salt can help coax the natural flavor out of ingredients like vegetables and meat, while herbs and spices infuse them with additional flavors.

How is cooking at home different from cooking in a restaurant? ›

The most universal difference is that restaurants tend to use more fat and more salt than a typical home cook. More oil in the pan for frying. More butter in the sauce. Restaurant cooks are more consistent with salting/seasoning than home cooks are.
