Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Olive Branch, a bustling Mediterranean restaurant in York, was looking to refresh its tableware to better match its vibrant, modern menu. They chose these Churchill Studio Prints Raku bowls to replace their outdated plain white crockery.

“The moment we started plating on these bowls, the food just came alive. The dark, textured background makes the colours of our dishes leap out. We've had so many customers specifically comment on how beautiful the tableware is.”

Samuel Jones – Head Chef

The upgrade led to a noticeable increase in social media shares from diners, boosting the restaurant's online visibility and  organic marketing reach.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon delivery, carefully unpack and  inspect each bowl for any signs of damage during transit.
  • Give all bowls a thorough wash in a commercial dishwasher before their first use to remove any dust.
  • Designate a specific, easily accessible shelf for storage, ensuring it's not overcrowded.
  • Brief your team on the new crockery to ensure they handle it with the appropriate care from day one.

Keeping It Going

  • To prevent chips, avoid knocking bowls against taps or other crockery when loading the dishwasher.
  • Use a reputable commercial detergent and  rinse aid to maintain the integrity of the unique glaze.
  • Avoid using abrasive scourers or metal utensils to scrape off food, as this can scratch the surface over time.
  • Stack carefully after washing, ensuring bowls are fully dry to prevent moisture from being trapped.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Crockery

Not sure what to look for? Here’s a quick guide to help you choose the best tableware for your business.

Match Your Menu

The size, shape, and  colour of your bowl should complement your food. A wide rim bowl like this is fantastic for beautifully presented mains or saucy dishes.

Reflect Your Brand

Your tableware is part of your décor. Choose a style that fits your restaurant's atmosphere, whether it's rustic, minimalist, or fine dining.

Prioritise Durability

Look for materials like super vitrified porcelain, which is specifically designed to resist chips, scratches, and  thermal shock in a commercial environment.

Consider Size & Capacity

Ensure the bowl is the right size for your portion control. A 240mm bowl is a versatile all-rounder for many different types of main courses.

Think About Storage

Check if the items are stackable. In a kitchen where space is at a premium, this is a non-negotiable feature for efficient storage.

What 'Super Vitrified' Really Means for Your Kitchen

You see 'Super Vitrified Porcelain' listed, but what is it? Think of it as porcelain that's been to the gym. During manufacturing, it's fired at a much higher temperature than standard ceramic. This process, vitrification, melts the particles together, making the final product incredibly dense and  strong. For you, this means it's far more resistant to the chips and  cracks that plague lesser crockery. It's also non-porous, so it won't absorb moisture, flavours, or odours, and  it's much more resilient against the sudden temperature changes (thermal shock) of a busy kitchen. It's the science behind why these bowls last so long.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Fine Dining Restaurants

    Perfect for plating signature mains and  appetisers, adding a touch of drama and  sophistication to the table.

  • Boutique Hotels

    Ideal for in-room dining or the hotel restaurant, offering guests a memorable, high-end experience.

  • Modern European Bistros

    The rustic, earthy finish complements menus focused on fresh, seasonal, and  artisanal ingredients wonderfully.

  • Contemporary Japanese Eateries

    The Raku-inspired design provides an authentic and  stylish backdrop for sushi, ramen, and  other Japanese cuisine.
