Lighting fixture is a basic part of every residential building, shopping malls, apartment and other building structures. It is a need which we cannot live without. Without any lighting fixtures, the place looks dead and unfriendly especially when night time comes. In addition, it will be hard for us to move around when a place is dark. But aside from providing us illumination, it is also very useful in keeping our food warm all the time too.
More often than not, we find heat lamps in restaurants, cafes and bistros. But I was surprised to find it in one of our family friends’ house when we attended their eight year old daughter’s birthday. They gave us a tour around the house since it is our first time to visit them after they have their house renovated three months ago. They showed us their kitchen "equipped" with these fancy looking food heat lamps in their fabulous kitchen. Just like in the restaurants, cafes and bistros, all dishes were kept under the cinnamon colored food warming lighting fixtures before they were served in the dining table to ensure that the food were served hot. They are much better than using the usual chafing dishes. I am used to eating food which is heated in the microwave which makes me wish that we could also have these 250 watt heat lamps in our kitchen as well. But that can wait I guess. Besides, these heat lamps are easily ordered online.
I am sure that most of us prefer hot foods to be served hot for there is nothing more satisfying and enjoyable than eating foods which are served hot. Aside from this, bacterial growth slows down when they are kept warm or reheated. Just like the famous saying in food service goes, "Keep cold foods cold, and keep hot foods hot."
