  • A Tad Plain: The minimalist design might be too simple for fine dining concepts.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Copper Kettle, a busy tearoom in Bakewell, needed to replace their assortment of chipped and  tired-looking side plates. They wanted a uniform, durable, and  classic look that would complement their traditional cakes and  scones.

"We were constantly having to throw plates away due to chips and  cracks. Since switching to the Olympia coupe plates, our crockery has never looked better. They're incredibly sturdy, and  our customers have even commented on how lovely they are. They just make everything look a bit more special."

Robert Miller – Owner, The Copper Kettle

The switch resulted in a significant drop in replacement orders, reducing their tableware breakage costs by over 40% in the first six months.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon delivery, carefully unpack and  inspect each plate for any damage that may have occurred in transit.
  • Give them a good wash in a commercial dishwasher or by hand before their first use to remove any dust.
  • Ensure you have appropriate, stable shelving or plate racks ready for storage.

Keeping It Going

  • To prevent chipping, avoid knocking plates together when clearing tables or loading the dishwasher.
  • Stack them carefully in plate jacks or on shelves. Avoid creating tall, wobbly stacks that could topple over.
  • While durable, try to avoid extreme temperature changes (thermal shock), like taking a plate from a freezer directly into a hot oven.
  • The vitrified glaze is stain-resistant, but it's still good practice to rinse off strong-coloured foods like beetroot or curry sauces promptly.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Tableware

Not sure which plates will stand up to the pressure? Here are a few things to keep in mind when choosing your restaurant dinnerware.

Material Matters

Vitrified stoneware, like this Olympia plate, offers a fantastic blend of durability and  value, making it ideal for high-turnover businesses. It's much tougher than standard earthenware.

Size and  Shape

This 200mm white porcelain coupe plate is a versatile all-rounder for starters, sides and  desserts. The rimless coupe style gives you more usable space and  a modern look.

Edge Durability

Look for 'rolled' or 'reinforced' edges. This simple feature drastically reduces the likelihood of chipping, which is one of the biggest reasons for replacing crockery.

Stackability and  Storage

Check that plates stack neatly and  securely. Good stackability not only saves precious space but also prevents damage when plates are stored.

Kitchen Versatility

Always confirm that your chosen tableware is oven, microwave, and  commercial dishwasher safe. This flexibility is essential in a dynamic kitchen environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are these plates completely white or off-white?

A: They are a classic, bright white colour, providing a neutral and  clean background for any dish.

Q: What does 'coupe' style mean?

A: A coupe plate has a gentle, continuous curve and  no separate rim, which creates a modern look and  maximises the flat surface area for plating.

Q: Is the base of the plate glazed?

A: The main surfaces are fully glazed, but the foot-ring on the bottom is typically unglazed to ensure stability during the high-temperature firing process.

Q: How do these compare to standard high-street dinner plates?

A: These are built for commercial use. They are thicker, heavier, and  feature a vitrified body and  durable glaze designed to withstand hundreds of wash cycles and  daily heavy use.

Q: Can I use serrated steak knives on them?

A: The super vitrified glaze is highly scratch-resistant, but repeated, aggressive use of serrated knives may eventually leave marks over time, as with any ceramic plate.

Q: What is the ideal use for an 8 inch white coupe plate?

A: It's incredibly versatile! Perfect for large starters, small main courses, sophisticated desserts, or as a side plate for bread and  butter in a formal setting.

Q: Do they get very hot in the microwave?

A: Like all microwave-safe ceramics, the plate will get hot. Always use caution and  oven mitts when removing it after heating.

Q: Is the Olympia CG353 coupe plate lead and  cadmium free?

A: Yes, all Olympia tableware conforms to UK and  EU safety standards and  is certified food-safe.

What Does 'Super Vitrified' Actually Mean for Your Kitchen?

You see 'vitrified' on a lot of commercial tableware, but what is it? Think of it as giving the plate a superpower. During manufacturing, the stoneware is fired at an incredibly high temperature until the clay body becomes glass-like, or 'vitreous'. This process makes it non-porous, so it won’t absorb water, oils, or food odours, which is a massive win for hygiene and  preventing stains.

The analogy we like is that it's like giving the plate its own suit of armour. A regular plate is just baked clay, but a vitrified plate has a dense, sealed-off structure. This, combined with the tough glaze on top, makes the Olympia CG353 coupe plate exceptionally resistant to the knocks, scrapes from cutlery, and  temperature shocks that are just part of life in a professional kitchen.
