Why this frying pan earns its place
The Matfer Bourgeat Classe Chef 16 cm frying pan is a compact aluminium pan built for smaller cooking jobs. Its 160 mm diameter and 500 ml capacity keep it focused on small portions, while the low 0.34 kg gross weight makes it easy to handle on the line.
The big selling point is the cooking surface: Matfer Bourgeat says it is coated four times for extra long life. That gives the pan a clear place in the kitchen when you want a small non-stick frying pan that is meant to work hard rather than look delicate.
The exterior is epoxy coated in black, which gives the pan a clean, simple finish, and the overall specification stays deliberately straightforward. There is no clutter here, just a small aluminium frying pan with the sort of surface treatment that should appeal to kitchens looking for a dependable everyday piece.
