Over 750,000 Rational units have been manufactured in Landsberg to date and are now in use in kitchens around the world. The 750,000th unit was ceremoniously handed over during the NRA (National Restaurant Association) show in Chicago. The happy owner is the Francesca's Restaurants Group in the USA.

Rational units have over 40 years of cooking research built inside. The cooking system uses this experience and always achieves the desired result. It recognizes the size, load quantity, and product condition and calculates the browning.

The Francesca's Restaurants Group can now benefit from these advantages with an additional SelfCookingCenter.

Whether it's a dinner among friends, a family celebration, or a candlelit dinner, anyone wanting to experience original Italian flair in Chicago should visit one of the Francesca's Restaurants Group locations. When the company was founded in 1992, restauranteur, Scott Harris, focused on providing his customers with Italian hospitality—a memorable dining experience while enjoying an exceptional meal. Just recently, the Francesca's Restaurants Group was named one of "America's 50 best Italian restaurants."

During the momentous ceremony, Corporate Executive Chef Dan Harris thanked Rational and adds "Rational is a company that focuses on what chefs want and they are working with chefs to make a product that we need in order to get through each and every day. It means a lot to us to have a company that can take our ideas and turn them into reality."
