Cuisine Solutions, Inc. will open the world's first sous vide Dark Assembly Kitchen concept, CS DAK, in New York City, on January 7, 2021. Located within Pret A Manger, (425 Madison Avenue, NY, NY) CS DAK will offer various direct-to-consumer cuisine concepts at launch including The Cutting Edge by CS DAK, Cocina Oscura by CS DAK, Mediterranean by CS DAK, Poultry in Motion by CS DAK and Bodega by CS DAK, all available for delivery in Manhattan on Uber Eats, Grubhub, DoorDash. At their launch location, CS DAK will be implemented by Pret A Manger's team and operate out of their midtown store, where they will exclusively use fully cooked, sous vide products, a minimal contact cooking process that eliminates the need for from-scratch cooking. The onsite culinary staff will only need to assemble menu items for all cuisine concepts, using Cuisine Solutions products. Cuisine Solutions' menus and proprietary products feature the quality ingredients, developed by one of the most innovative culinary teams in the food industry. Comprised of over 55 acclaimed chefs from Cuisine Solutions' U.S.A., Asia, Europe and Middle East, they have drawn inspiration from their heritage and home, to create Cuisine Solutions' 290+ sous vide menu items. The ready-to-eat delivery concept of The Cutting Edge by CS DAK will present global, chef-inspired favorites such as Harissa Charred Octopus Tzatziki Mezze, Sirloin Steak Tartar, and Duck Leg Confit with Oaxacan mole. Cocina Oscura by CS DAK and Mediterranean by CS DAK will, respectively, feature Mexican and Mediterranean build-your-own custom-style bowls, salads, and wraps, as well as chef-driven dishes like herb-roasted half-chicken bathed in sherried walnut sauce, with pomegranate and herbs, and Kibbeh Nayeh. Poultry in Motion by CS DAK will offer a variety of items including their popular Sous Vide Egg Bites, originally created by Cuisine Solutions and available in two flavors: Uncured Turkey Bacon Egg Bites, and vegetarian Egg Whites, Spinach and Kale. The concept will also offer chicken prepared in a variety of ways, including southern fried, herb-roasted, five-spice Peking, and more. The fifth concept offered is Bodega by CS DAK, which features chef-driven, high-end, and ready-made meal components prepared using sous vide that arrive to customers fully cooked. Customers can then quickly reheat dishes in the oven, stovetop, or microwave, allowing them to stock their fridge and meal prep for the week. Dishes will include menu items such as Lamb Shank with a Portobello and Red Wine Mushroom Sauce, Grilled Salmon,White Beans with Thyme and Garlic, and Veal Osso Bucco. This concept will also offer holiday season specialties like Turkey Roulade with Cranberries and Apples, and Cuisine Solutions' signature 72-hour Beef Short Ribs, cooked in their natural juices. These time-consuming, elegant dishes only require re-heating, providing a consistently excellent, safe dining experience for families. Consumers can expect to see Asian, Italian, and barbeque-based concepts that will all provide a wide array of seafood, poultry, meat, egg, plant-based, vegetarian and vegan options in the very near future.
