  • Standout Finish: The unique glaze on each plate offers a genuinely bespoke look.
  • Careful on Scratches: The unglazed foot could potentially mark very delicate wooden tabletops if slid.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Corner House Bistro in Bath was looking to refresh its tableware to better reflect its creative, modern British menu. They needed something that was both visually striking and  tough enough for relentless daily service.

"From the moment we unboxed them, we knew they were right. Our scallops and  pan-seared duck starters look absolutely phenomenal on the dark glaze. Customers notice the quality, and  it just lifts the whole experience."

Michael Davies – Head Chef

Since introducing the Olympia DR089 platter for key dishes, the bistro has seen a notable increase in social media shares from customers, boosting their online visibility organically.

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 before their first use.
  • The unglazed foot provides stability; ensure they are stacked carefully on shelves to prevent chipping.

Keeping It Going

  • To make the most of the Edge-Chip Warranty, avoid knocking plates together when clearing tables.
  • When loading into a dishwasher, ensure plates are not rattling against each other.
  • Avoid extreme thermal shock, such as taking a plate from a hot oven and  plunging it into cold water.
  • The stoneware material is incredibly durable, but like all ceramics, can break if dropped on a hard surface.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Restaurant Crockery

Not sure what fits your establishment best? Choosing the right plate is about more than just looks. Here are a few tips to help you decide.

Material Matters

This plate is made from stoneware, which offers a robust, earthy, and  slightly rustic feel compared to the finer, more delicate nature of porcelain or bone china.

Look for Durability

A feature like a 'Lifetime Edge-Chip Warranty' isn't just a promise; it's a mark of confidence in the product's ability to withstand a busy service environment.

Let Your Food Shine

Dark plates, like this Olympia Fusion black oval plate, create a high-contrast background that makes the colours of your food look richer and  more vibrant.

Shape Directs the Eye

An oval shape is great for plating dishes with multiple components, as it naturally guides the diner's eye along the length of the plate, creating a more dynamic presentation.

Check for Versatility

Being oven, microwave, and  dishwasher safe is a massive plus. It means fewer stages, less washing up, and  a much more efficient kitchen workflow.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are all the plates in a box identical?

A: No, and  that's the beauty of them! The reactive glaze process ensures that each plate has a slightly unique pattern and  finish, giving them a handcrafted appearance.

Q: What does 'unglazed foot' mean?

A: The circular ring on the base of the plate is left unglazed. This provides grip and  stability during the firing process and  helps prevent the plate from sliding on smooth surfaces.

Q: Can I use this 250mm restaurant oval plate for a main course?

A: At 250mm (about 10 inches) long, it's best suited for stylish starters, shared sides, or elaborate desserts. For most main courses, you might prefer a larger plate.

Q: Is this a porcelain oval plate for restaurants?

A: This plate is made from high-quality stoneware. Stoneware is known for its durability and  more rustic, substantial feel compared to the finer finish of porcelain.

Q: How robust is the stoneware?

A: It's designed for commercial use, making it very robust and  resistant to chipping. The lifetime edge-chip warranty is a testament to its durability.

Q: Will the colour fade after many dishwasher cycles?

A: No, the colour is part of the fired glaze. It is permanent and  will not fade, even with repeated use in a commercial dishwasher.

Q: How many plates are supplied in one box?

A: The Olympia Fusion DR089 plates are supplied in a box containing 6 individual plates.

Q: Is the surface completely smooth?

A: The glazed surface is smooth for easy cleaning, but the reactive glaze gives it a subtle, organic texture that adds to its unique character.

What is a Reactive Glaze and  Why Does It Matter?

Ever wondered how pottery gets that beautiful, one-of-a-kind, dappled finish? It's often down to a 'reactive glaze'. Unlike a standard, uniform colour, a reactive glaze contains special elements that react to the intense heat inside the kiln during firing. This reaction creates unique patterns, textures, and  subtle colour variations.

Think of it like a natural pattern in a piece of marble or wood – no two sections are ever identical. For the Olympia Fusion DR089 oval plate, this means you get a set of crockery where each piece has its own distinct personality. It gives you an expensive, artisanal look that feels specially commissioned, but with the consistency and  durability of commercially produced stoneware.
