Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Feathered Nest, a country pub in the Cotswolds, wanted to move away from standard white plates to better reflect their rustic, locally-sourced menu. They chose the Olympia DP139 to serve their popular grill items.

"Customers immediately noticed the difference. The boards just feel right for our setting. People are constantly taking photos of their meals now, which they never did when we used plain crockery. The presentation really lifts the whole dish."

Robert Finch – Proprietor

The pub noted that since introducing the wooden serving boards, their online gallery of customer photos has grown significantly, providing a welcome boost in free marketing.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Before first use, wipe the board with a damp cloth and  allow it to dry completely.
  • Consider seasoning the board with a food-safe mineral oil to protect the wood and  enhance its natural grain.
  • Store boards flat in a dry, well-ventilated area to prevent warping.
  • Check that your chosen ramekins fit securely within the 70mm recess.

Keeping It Going

  • After each use, wipe clean with a mild detergent and  a damp cloth.
  • Never place the board in a dishwasher or submerge it in a sink full of water.
  • Towel-dry the board immediately after washing and  allow it to air-dry fully.
  • Periodically re-apply a food-safe oil to maintain the wood's lustre and  water resistance.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Serving Boards

Not sure what fits your menu best? Picking the right serving-ware can make all the difference. Here are a few things to consider.

Material Matters

Wood, like this acacia steak serving board, offers a warm, rustic feel. Slate provides modern drama, while classic porcelain is versatile. Choose a material that complements your brand's atmosphere.

Size and  Shape

Ensure your board is large enough for the entire dish, including sides and  garnishes, without looking cluttered. A larger board often creates a more generous, premium impression.

Functional Features

Look for details that make service easier. Juice grooves are essential for meats, while built-in recesses for ramekins or handles for carrying are huge practical benefits.

Cleaning and  Care

Consider your kitchen's workflow. Are you equipped for hand-washing specific items? While wood requires more care than porcelain, its visual impact is often worth the effort.

Weight and  Stackability

Think about your staff and  storage. Boards should be sturdy but not too heavy to carry. Check if they can be stacked safely to save precious space in a busy kitchen.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this board dishwasher safe?

A: No, the Olympia DP139 is strictly hand-wash only. Using a dishwasher will damage the wood and  cause it to warp or crack.

Q: What exactly is acacia wood?

A: Acacia is a durable and  dense hardwood known for its rich, varied grain patterns and  natural resistance to moisture, making it an excellent material for serving boards.

Q: Can I use sharp steak knives directly on the surface?

A: While the hardwood is durable, aggressive cutting can leave marks over time. It's designed primarily for presentation, though normal use with a steak knife is perfectly fine.

Q: What size ramekin fits in the circular recess?

A: The recess is 70mm in diameter, designed to snugly fit most standard sauce ramekins.

Q: How heavy is each wooden steak serving board?

A: Each board weighs approximately 0.98kg, making it substantial enough to feel high-quality but light enough for staff to handle comfortably.

Q: Does the wood stain easily from things like balsamic glaze or beetroot?

A: Acacia has good natural resistance, but it's always best practice to wipe up dark or vibrant sauces promptly after use to prevent any potential for staining.

Q: What's the best way to store these boards?

A: To prevent warping, you should always store them lying flat in a dry, well-ventilated space, away from direct heat sources.

Q: Are the cut-outs on the side for hanging the board up?

A: The two small cut-outs are primarily designed to make it easier to lift the board from a flat tabletop, improving handling for your staff.

How a Simple Groove Stops Saucy Spills

Ever wondered what the channel running around the edge of a good steak board is for? That's the juice groove, and  it's a small feature with a big impact. Think of it as a tiny, protective moat for your table. When a customer cuts into a juicy steak, or if a rich sauce starts to spread, this groove catches the liquid before it has a chance to run off the edge and  onto the tablecloth.

It’s a simple piece of design that ensures a cleaner, more professional dining experience for your customers and  less mess for your staff to worry about. For a busy restaurant, it means faster cleanup and  a consistently tidy presentation, even when things get hectic. It’s one of those 'why didn't I think of that?' features that makes this acacia wood steak platter a truly practical choice.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Gastropubs & Inns: Perfect for upgrading the presentation of your steak and  ale pie or signature burgers.
  • Steakhouses: An essential restaurant steak presentation board to showcase premium cuts and  create a cohesive, rustic theme.

  • Boutique Bistros & Cafes: Ideal for adding an artisanal, high-quality feel to your lunch menu, from ploughman's lunches to gourmet sandwiches.
