Punch Taverns's latest refurbishment at The Middle Bell, Staffordshire, created an Italian restaurant and authentic pizzeria using a rotating, traditional Italian oven made in Italy by MAM Forni, supplied and installed by Target Catering Equipment, sole UK importers.

The latest rotating oven installation at The Middle Bell, Barton Under Needwood was on the first floor.  The installation was made possible by the design of the oven which enabled all components to fit through a standard single door way.  Reuse of the existing chimney flue required no further planning consent in this listed building although a wall was removed in order to accomodate the traditional Italian oven. Finished in brick, the pizza oven looks the part in the Italian De Mezzo Restaurant.

All traditional ovens are tried and tested at Target's factory prior to despatch to customers.  Each oven is individually supplied direct from MAM Forni in Modena using Target's own dedicated transport and installation team.

Target's MAM pizza ovens are available in many shapes and sizes with dome ovens suitable for domestic house installations as well as the largest pizzerias and restaurants.

Wood fired or with a programmable gas burner for ease of use these traditional Italian ovens produce pizza in amazingly quick time as well as perfect real bread baked on residual heat which is held in the oven overnight ready for bread baking the next morning.

Surprisingly economic, the ovens only cost an average of £1.20 per hour to keep running on full power reaching a temperature of 300°C then considerably less once main operating temperature is reached.

Try before you buy at Target's demonstration and test kitchen, cook your own pizza recipe and see how good it really is in a MAM Forni, traditional Italian oven.

For entrepreneurs looking to develop catering business concepts, the traditional Italian wood pizza oven offers an alternative to American rack conveyor ovens.  Target Catering Equipment import MAM Forni traditional Italian wood pizza ovens and are also able to offer an alternative gas fired oven version.  The gas fired, wood pizza oven is easier to maintain but still produces that authentic Italian style pizza.

Target Catering Equipment recently installed a complete front of house wood pizza oven with the gas fired option to create a traditional pizzeria and takeaway concept for Hugh Asher at The Highwayman Yateley, Hampshire.

From building the wood pizza oven, dressing it to match the internal decor of the pub, to installing the complete pizza oven flue system complete with gas safety interlock and fan assisted flue to meet gas safety requirements, Target Catering Equipment were able to offer the complete wood pizza oven installation package.

The pizza prep counter and heated pass, all designed to fit into the smallest footprint, added the finishing touches to the pizzeria and the wood pizza oven added character and warmth and a new dimension to the traditional, ex Greene King, local pub restaurant.
