A voice message system for use in kitchen management, particularly drive-thru restaurants, including a data processor (601); data storage means (601); a primary base station (102); a transmitter or other transmission means (501); a plurality of preset electronic messages; a plurality of receivers (101) adapted to reproduce one or more selected messages, transmit radio frequency messages and communicate between each other; and one or more ordering posts adapted to communicate with said kitchen management system. The messages are initiated at said ordering posts and then transmitted to the data processor (601) by the transmitter (501), said data processor converts the message into one of more preset messages transmitted to the master module (103) or a secondary module and then to the primary station (102) wherein the message is distributed to one or more receivers (101) or a speaker post system (105-112, 201-204). In addition, the system is capable of integrating means for recording and logging orders wherein orders are prioritised and then transmitted to a speaker module (105) wherein orders are reproduced audibly. Further, the system may comprise an electronically controlled apparatus for cooking food in response to a signal from the data processing means (601) and a lane timer (602) for detecting cars driving through the ordering posts.
