Client Profile – Farooj Charcoal Chicken
When a queue forms half an hour before doors open, you know the cuisine being served is something special. Langford’s Farooj Charcoal Chicken only opened in June 2022 but already draws crowds from far and wide for its mouth-watering Lebanese charcoal chicken recipe.
The family business was created when the owners moved to Perth and missed their unique charcoal chicken flavour – an old family recipe that was a favourite with anyone they cooked for. So, they decided to open Farooj Charcoal Chicken so the smoky, authentic flavours of Lebanese chicken could be enjoyed by their new community.
The shop is bursting with family-inspired recipes and family members, who cook and serve the charcoal chicken across various methods (think whole chickens, burgers, wraps and loaded fries), fresh from the spit roast. While customers are from all over Perth, the family particularly loves seeing its regular patrons.
Brayco and Chairforce were the supplier of choice for Farooj owners, who needed to maximise space in the small kitchen with plenty of sturdy and efficient storage, while providing its café section with a sleek, industrial look that aligned with its branding.
Farooj chose pipe shelves to line the kitchen above the triple bowl sink to keep utensils and pots easily accessible. Wall shelves tower above them with excess containers and products kept neatly out of the way until required. Brayco’s two tier overshelf is perhaps the hero of the kitchen, providing an island bench with space for both food preparation and storage, and everything within arm’s reach.
The triple bowl sink is well used within this fast-moving kitchen with options for rinsing food and washing dishes, plus a handy rail built beneath for efficient storage of spray bottles. Farooj chose two sinks with large, pre-rinse taps and one with a hands-free tap for hygienic hand washing.
The logo and shopfront are just as spicy as Farooj’s chicken with bold red flames dousing the windows. Farooj was able to perfectly complement its style with Chairforce’s red Replica Tolix stools (which come in a kaleidoscope of 11 colours, so palette matching is a cinch for any of our clients), plus they’re stackable for a fast pack away. The Miguel round and square folding dining tables are hygienic and lightweight, so they’re easy to clean between the constant flow of Farooj’s customers and fold up at closing time.
