Abstract:
A cooking table of the type having a stationary portion at which persons may be seated and a mobile portion comprising a griddle plate movable from table to table. The stationary portion of the table is essentially of U-shape adapted to receive the mobile portion in the hollow of the U to enable preparation of foods, meats and the like and demonstration thereof under the immediate observation of the patrons seated at the table. Gas is made available for use in the griddle when the mobile portion of the table is in place, by conduits or pipes with quick connect and disconnect couplings. Other features for the safety, health and comfort of the persons seated at the table include insulating material in the walls of the mobile unit, flame retardant angles on the underside of the griddle plate to block possible injury to guests seated at the table, and kerf troughs on the underside of the griddle plate to insure collection of grease in perimeter troughs on the inside of the U-opening in the stationary portion. Leveler bolts enable leveling of the griddle plate or other adjustment of the level thereof.
