  • Presentation Plus: The wide, deep rim frames food beautifully, perfect for Instagrammable dishes.
  • Size Consideration: Their generous 310mm size might be a tight squeeze in smaller dishwashers.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The team at 'The Water's Edge Kitchen' in Salcombe, Devon, needed to refresh their tableware. Their existing plates were showing signs of wear, with frequent chipping that looked unprofessional and  was becoming costly to replace.

"We serve a lot of fresh, local seafood pasta and  the presentation just wasn't doing it justice. We switched to the Olympia CB485 plates and  the difference was instant. The vibrant colours of our dishes look incredible against the brilliant white porcelain, and  the deep rim is perfect for our generous, saucy portions. Best of all, we haven't had a single chip in months."

Chloe Davies – Head Chef

The switch to these commercial pasta serving plates has not only elevated their food presentation but has also slashed their crockery replacement budget by an estimated 70%.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon delivery, carefully unpack and  inspect each plate for any signs of damage during transit.
  • Give all plates a thorough wash in a commercial dishwasher or by hand with detergent before their first use.
  • Ensure your shelving is clean, dry, and  strong enough to support the weight of the stacked plates.

Keeping It Going

  • Stack carefully, avoiding knocking the edges. The rolled-edge design helps, but good practice is key.
  • When loading into a dishwasher, ensure plates aren't clattering against each other to prevent impact damage.
  • Use non-abrasive detergents to maintain the pristine glazed finish for years to come.
  • In the unlikely event of a rim chip, keep your proof of purchase to make a claim under the Lifetime Edge-Chip Warranty.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Tableware

Not sure which plates are perfect for your menu? Here are a few tips to help you choose wisely.

Material Matters

Porcelain, like these plates, offers a classic look and  fantastic durability. It's strong, non-porous, and  perfect for professional use. Other materials like stoneware offer a more rustic feel but may be less resistant to chipping.

Match the Plate to the Plate

Consider your menu. Deep-rimmed pasta plates are essential for saucy dishes, while flat plates are better for steaks or intricate presentations. The right shape makes food easier to eat and  look better.

Look for Durability

In a commercial kitchen, durability is everything. Look for terms like 'fully vitrified', 'rolled edges', and  an 'edge-chip warranty'. These are all signs of a product built to withstand heavy use.

Think About Storage

Space is always at a premium. Before you buy, check that the crockery is stackable. This simple feature is a massive space-saver and  helps keep your kitchen organised and  efficient.

Aesthetics and  Atmosphere

Your tableware is part of your brand's identity. A classic white plate like the Olympia CB485 is incredibly versatile and  lets the food shine, fitting in with almost any decor style.

What 'Fully Vitrified' Really Means for Your Kitchen

You see the term 'fully vitrified' on a lot of professional crockery, but what does it actually mean for you? Think of it like this: standard ceramic is a bit like a tough sponge – it has tiny, microscopic pores. When you wash it, moisture and  odours can get trapped inside, which isn't great for hygiene or flavour. Vitrification is a process where the porcelain is fired at an extremely high temperature, effectively melting the particles together and  turning it into a glass-like substance. This closes all those pores, making the plate non-porous. This means it won’t absorb water, bacteria, or old food flavours, and  it's also what gives these deep rim restaurant plates their incredible strength and  resistance to chipping.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Italian Restaurants: These large pasta plates 310mm are ideal for serving generous, authentic portions with true trattoria style.
  • Hotels & Event Caterers: The elegant design and  certified durability make them perfect for weddings, banquets, and  room service.
  • Gastropubs & Bistros: Use the wide rim for creative plating, elevating classic pub fare to a new level of sophistication.
  • High-Volume Canteens: A tough, stackable, and  easily cleaned white porcelain pasta bowl that withstands the demands of daily service.
