A beautiful thing about mealtime, and the true gift we get from being a home chef is the freedom to make it what we desire. Humans have shared meals for thousands of years and yet we still discover new tricks, recipes or innovations that can transform the meal entirely. Totem’s serving tray is designed for families who value spending time together; when life gets in the way, the Totem Axis creates an engaging mealtime experience worth remembering. Kids, husbands, teenagers, friends, whoever is at the table will feel a sensory awakening when they see your meal sizzling off the Totem Axis. You may even get your family to try NEW meals by presenting it differently; the guests finding a meal attractive makes them one step closer to trying it whatsoever (Parents of picky eaters know).
On-The-Go
It’s a Tuesday evening, the house is a mess, one child just got home from soccer practice and the other one has a plethora of homework - Tonight would be a great excuse to order burgers and fries for the family. We have all been there, but there is a viable solution to feeding the family even when nobody can seem to find time for one another.
It is a classic, but we aren’t reinventing the wheel here. A walking taco, burrito or taco stand is a guaranteed way to serve different family members as they come and go. One kid comes home, you make them two tacos and catch up about their day of school, sports and anything new. The food can then be left out until the next wave of family members finds themselves ready to eat. By integrating a skillet with the Totem Axis, you have the ability to keep proteins and other ingredients warm over a period of time. Not only is the meal staying hot, the entire meal is able to fit onto the three plates of the Totem Axis allowing for easy cleanup and time saved in the kitchen.
Hosting events and gatherings
The Totem Axis is an incredibly simple way to impress your extended family members, friends, and colleagues. Hosting any event gives the product a chance to really shine through. Throughout the day you maintain a platter of chips, dips, fruits, crackers, and cheeses that all sit on a different tier of the Totem Axis. People cannot stop coming back to it! By the time you must refill it’s ingredients, you’ll notice already how it has made an impact on the environment; people are genuinely excited about the food. As everybody dove in to your platter, they were able to share that experience! The Totem Axis naturally sparks a connection between any two people, as the food barrier is one of the easiest elements to break that bring people together.
Create a fun and engaging date-night
In any good relationship it can become difficult to maintain that special feeling of connection that you once had in the beginning of the relationship. A common frequency in all the spectacular relationships that have been studied, is a deep bond over the food they share, the time spent preparing it, and the creative skills developed when working together to make a recipe come to life. The Totem Axis may serve as a reinforcement to any couples existing traditions, it could also develop brand new traditions or rituals for couples who have longed for something like that in the past.
We picture a surf and turf meal as the perfect date night occasion. Mixing an array of vegetables, sauces and other sides on the top plates, while preparing a few beautiful lobster tail and sirloin steaks left to sizzle on the bottom. The entire experience of cooking, plating, serving, eating and cleaning up can be a delightful one with the use of the Totem Axis. The best part: Spending every second of the process with that special person you love so much!
The Totem axis can also be setup at sporting events, tailgating parties, at weddings and events, BBQ’s, restaurants, and sports bars; but we’ll save those discussions for another day!
