Calanc Mobile Kitchen On Wheels

This is definitely one of the more intriguing designs I have yet seen for outdoor dining. It’s a kitchen on wheels with a wonderfully sleek design. It’s the sort of thing that has people oohing and aahing before you break out your favorite outdoor recipe and wow them all the more. But it also comes with a number of other items that make the party all the better. Because, really now, if you’re dining al fresco, and you’re not having a few drinks along with it, you really are missing a bet. Where we live we’re blessed with a western view that allows us to watch the sun set, and that and a glass of wine or beer is pretty much all the doctor ordered if it’s been a tough day. Of course, now, if it’s been a good day, then that sort of thing is the perfect end to that perfect day. But the other part of that backyard paradise, of course, is sharing it with others, which brings us back to the subject at hand.
One of the things we most like to do with our back yard, when the opportunity presents itself, is entertain, and with items like that this, the entertaining becomes all the easier. These designs are such that they could go in a large yard or a small one. They could even go along one part of the apron of a swimming pool, for those who are blessed with such an item.
Calanc Furniture is a French company that takes as its philosophy, “Let yourself be seduced,” and they go on to do just that with an unique design “that welcomes a choice of materials of the highest quality and a realization of a very high precision.” The Calanc Collection has some truly wonderful designs that they have formed from stainless steel which has been shaped into tubes and rounded throughout. They have then employed fine craftsmen to shape and insert high-quality wood with a satin finish. The final result is just a marvelous product that is both unique and practical.
The Christophe mobile kitchen we’ve featured at the top of this blog would be a welcome addition to just about anyone’s outdoor kitchen. Actually, this baby IS the outdoor kitchen! It has an automatic gas ignition to keep your meals hot and an integrated mini refrigerator to keep the drinks cold. And because it weighs in at some two hundred pounds, it is clear to me that Calanc has not scrimped on the materials.
But the other cool thing about the mobile kitchen is that it is just one of an entire line of products for one’s backyard paradise. And, trust me on this, if yours is just a backyard, you can upgrade it to paradise in a heck of a hurry with a couple of judicious purchases. But to return to Calanc, they also have a portable bar and even a separate champagne holder, both of which we’ve shown here. Actually, their site is a veritable market for one’s backyard paradise. They have vast array of outdoor furniture for eating and dining, all of which complement the design motifs shown here. They even have a love seat, but, hey, they’re French.
