ABSTRACT A hot food counter is disclosed having a lower heated section for storage of food and an upper heated section for display of food. The upper section is enclosed with food being placed into the upper section by service personnel through sliding doors at the rear wall thereof, while food is withdrawn by customers through a pair of contoured openings in the front wall. The enclosure for the upper section is preferably transparent except for the sliding doors in the rear walls which preferably have mirror fin- ishes, and the tray within the enclosure and upon which food is displayed is preferably inclined downwardly and forwardly, as is the top wall of the enclosure. Heat is circulated through the upper section of the counter by means of small openings at the front of the enclosure through which hot air is injected into the enclosure and circulated therethrough to be expelled at small exhaust openings at the rear of the enclosure, the intake open- ings being positioned below the openings through which food is withdrawn and being much smaller in size. The openings through which food is withdrawn and the intake and exhaust openings are selected such that the temperature within the enclosure is con- sistently maintained at a temperature preferably not less than 150°F, and preferably never below 140°F. The lower section of the counter preferably has a separate heater and blower system, and the counter is made portable by mounting the counter on wheels, although portability is not necessary.
