Vlaze Adapt Outdoor Furniture x Chef Ben Cooke

Recently, on a glorious sunny day on the Isle of Wight, we had the pleasure of filming with Chef Benjamin Cooke for vlaze.us. This beautiful poolside location, with delicious and expertly prepared food, proved to be the perfect way to showcase our Vlaze Adapt Outdoor Kitchen in sunny Ochre.  

Read on to find out why Vlaze is a perfect poolside companion and a foodie’s dream! 

Pergola to poolside  

Vlaze Adapt units are individual, versatile modules that can be combined to your specification to form part of a larger outdoor kitchen. Free-moving units that allow you to move with the mood, adapting your outdoor kitchen space to suit your lifestyle. 

Pictured here in glorious sunny yellow Ochre, our Vlaze Adapt units demonstrate their versatility and transform into a perfect breakaway poolside prep space. 

Modular & mobile ADAPT units  

VLAZE’s stunning Adapt outdoor modular kitchens, grills and cabinetry facilitate human connection around something we all love – wonderful food, prepared and served in beautiful surroundings. 

Our signature yellow Ochre colour was inspired by the Californian sunshine and has set something of a trend in the outdoor kitchen space! It’s a vibrant “pop” of colour that brightens any environment, whatever the weather, bringing a smile every time you use it. 

3 reasons to choose a VLAZE Adapt outdoor kitchen 

1/ Vibrant & vitrified: a unique porcelain enamelled finish that is both beautiful and practical. 100% hygienic and UV resistant. 
 
2/ Modular & movable: easy to reconfigure when the weather turns or whenever you feel like a change. Indoors, outdoors, or undercover. 
 
3/ Wonderfully weatherproof – come rain or shine the combination of vitreous enamel and stainless steel withstands all the elements. 
 
The versatility and durability of Vlaze Adapt outdoor kitchen furniture means you can confidently enjoy outdoor feasting, all year round, for years to come. 

A foodie’s dream

Benjamin Cooke is the esteemed Chef of the wonderful ‘restaurant with rooms’, The Little Gloster. He prepared us a poolside feast, making his legendary Surf N Turf burgers with wood fired chips, using some fantastic Isle of Wight produce.  

The burgers comprised lobster tail with Thousand Island dressing, chuck steak, avocado and a signature chilli garlic butter bursting with flavour – so delicious!  

The wood-fired chips were made from King Edward potatoes and coated with extra virgin olive oil, rosemary, and garlic. 

It was great hearing firsthand from Ben, a top-class Chef, about his experience using Vlaze. 

Here are some quotes from Ben in the video that really stood out: 

“What’s incredible about the Vlaze, is you can put really hot pans down on the surface without affecting it.” 

“What I love about these Vlaze units is that you can easily move them to clean underneath and if you move house you can take them with you.” 

“They’re so easy to keep clean…This vitrified sealed surface is 100% hygienic.” 

“They age beautifully as well – they are going to be timeless” 

“I can’t believe how good these are… if I could choose any outdoor kitchen, I’d buy the Vlaze 10x over.” 

Ben looked in his element cooking with the Big Green Egg and using the Vlaze Adapt 240 Barbecue Kitchen and Island modules – everything one could need for Al fresco dining.
