Hi Folks,

My name's Felipe, from Colombia (South America), I'm not a professional cooker just an enthusiast so  I'm looking advice from the community to help me get in the right direction...

My wife owns a small café-gelato-bar in a small town, through the years the place has slowly been transforming itself into something like a pub (not like the sport irish pub), we serve some local artisanal brews, and it a really nice place that people seems to enjoy.

Aside from the café menu, we offer the waffles, ice cream cups, milkshakes, fruit juices and smoothies so we are fine on the sweet side, however we only have a few subpar sandwiches on the menu and people is asking for more salty stuff.

The problem is that we don't really have a kitchen, only two commercial grade waffle irons, this contact grill (http://www.unox.com/en/sc_p_rig_neri_xp010er), a microwave oven, a commercial blender, an induction cooktop, and that's it, and for the time being we can't afford on getting a full kitchen or any new hardware.

So i'd like to have ideas from the community on what do you think we can do if we want to upgrade our menu (on the salty side) when we don't really have a kitchen to work with? something obvious i'm missing?

 

(excuse me for my bad English)
