When things go wrong in a restaurant, they don’t go wrong quietly. Ovens die mid-rush, pipes burst at the worst possible moment, and someone always forgets to restock the one thing you desperately need. You can’t predict every emergency, but you can be ready for them. These 15 versatile tools can handle just about anything the restaurant life throws at you—because waiting for a repair guy isn’t always an option.
