A refrigerated food pan cooling device includes a food pan receiving well and a cooling system, wherein the cooling system includes a refrigeration system with a compressor, a condenser, a metering device and an evaporator. The evaporator includes at least one first refrigerant line downstream of the metering device and upstream of the compressor. The first refrigerant line runs along an external surface of at least one of the well walls. The condenser is configured as a hot wall condenser, that lacks any fan or blower, wherein the hot wall condenser includes at least one second refrigerant line downstream of the compressor and upstream of the metering device. The second refrigerant line runs, at least partly, along an internal surface of at least the first exterior sidewall to transfer heat through the first exterior sidewall to ambient air.
