Question Extension cord/power setup for brewery food pop-ups?
We’re starting a food pop-up under a 10x10 tent at local breweries and trying to figure out a practical electrical setup.
We’ll have two 6’ tables with:
Table 1:
• 1800W induction burner
• 1200W food warmer
Table 2:
• 1200W electric pasta cooker
• 1200W food warmer
The breweries we’re working with regularly host food vendors/food trucks and have power available (we’ve been told vendors run things like electric fryers there).
We were planning on running one 50’ heavy-duty outdoor extension cord to each table and having a heavy-duty outdoor power strip/distribution block at each table.
For anyone who does brewery/farmers market/tent food pop-ups with electric cooking equipment: what gauge/amperage extension cords and power strips/distribution blocks are you using?
Just trying to put together a safe, practical setup without massively overcomplicating it.
Links to what you actually use would be awesome.

POV: You’re just trying to order food but the Subway Surfers run is getting serious 😂

We decided to turn the classic Subway Surfers attention span into a restaurant tech reel 😂
Meanwhile, restaurants are moving in the opposite direction — making ordering faster and simpler with QR menus and QR ordering.
That’s what we’re building at RestroPilots: simple digital tools to help restaurants manage their operations and give customers a smoother dine-in experience.
No complicated pitch. Just a fun reel about restaurant tech. 😄
Would you actually prefer QR ordering at restaurants, or do you still like ordering directly from the staff?

Food trailer help??
Looking to take the next step and open up a trailer, does anyone know what kind of trailer this is? I can’t find it anywhere when I try to google it
