Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
El Corazón, a popular tapas restaurant in Bristol's vibrant Harbourside, needed to upgrade their mismatched and frequently chipped small plates. They wanted a uniform, durable, and stackable solution to cope with their packed weekend services and limited storage space.
"The Olympia bowls have been brilliant. They look fantastic on the table, they stack away neatly, and most importantly, they just don't chip. Our servers feel more confident carrying them, and the kitchen team loves how easy they are to clean. They've really elevated our presentation without any fuss."
Chloe Davies – Restaurant Manager
The switch to the Olympia DK827 white tapas bowls has led to a near-total elimination of replacement costs due to chipping and improved service efficiency.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- On arrival, carefully unpack the bowls and check for any damage that may have occurred in transit.
- Give them a good wash with warm, soapy water or run them through a dishwasher cycle before their first use.
- That's it! They are ready to be filled with your delicious creations.
Keeping It Going
- When loading into a dishwasher, avoid overcrowding to ensure a thorough clean and prevent knocking.
- The stackable design is fantastic, but always stack them neatly to prevent them from toppling over in storage.
- While incredibly tough, try to avoid extreme and sudden temperature changes (like taking a bowl from the freezer directly to a hot oven).
- In the unlikely event of an edge chip, remember they are covered by the Lifetime Edge-Chip Warranty.

A: These Olympia DK827 Mediterranean dishes are supplied in a box of 6, offering great value and ensuring you have enough on hand for service.
Q: What does the Lifetime Edge-Chip Warranty actually cover?

Explore more from OlympiaWhat Does 'Fully Vitrified' Actually Mean for Your Kitchen?
You'll see the term 'fully vitrified' on a lot of professional-grade porcelain, but what does it really mean? Think of it as giving the bowl a microscopic superhero shield. During manufacturing, the porcelain is fired at an extremely high temperature, which causes the clay to become glass-like and non-porous. This means it has a water absorption rate of less than 0.5%.
In simple terms, it won't soak up water, oils, or food flavours, even with colourful or acidic ingredients like tomato sauce or balsamic vinegar. This makes the Olympia porcelain tapas bowls far more hygienic, incredibly resistant to stains and odours, and much stronger than standard domestic ceramic. It's the secret ingredient that makes them tough enough for commercial kitchens.
Who Should Buy This?
