Emily Hart – Tableware

  • Cons: The classic design is versatile but might feel too simple for highly stylised restaurants.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Grouse & Ale, a traditional pub in Bakewell, Derbyshire, was struggling with their old ceramic ovenware. It was chipping constantly during their frantic Sunday lunch services, making presentation look shoddy and  costing a fortune in replacements.

"We were fed up with replacing chipped dishes every month. The Olympia whiteware is in a different league; they look smart, handle the heat from the oven, and  we haven't had a single chip in three months. They've been brilliant."

David Chen – Head Chef

The pub slashed their monthly crockery replacement costs by over 90% and  received compliments on the improved, consistent table presentation.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Give all dishes a thorough wash in hot, soapy water or a dishwasher cycle before their first use.
  • Upon arrival, quickly inspect each dish to ensure there was no damage during transit.
  • When stacking, avoid direct contact between bases and  faces. If stacking high, consider using plate protectors.

Keeping It Going

  • To remove stubborn baked-on food, soak the dish in warm water rather than using harsh metal scourers.
  • Load into the dishwasher carefully, ensuring dishes don't knock against each other during the cycle.
  • Regularly check the rolled edges for any small chips to maintain food safety standards.
  • Although tough, avoid exposing the dish to sudden extreme temperature changes, like running a hot dish under a cold tap.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Tableware

Not sure what fits best for your service? Here are a few things to keep in mind when choosing professional crockery.

Consider Your Vibe

Think about your brand's style. Is it rustic, fine dining, or fast-casual? Your crockery should complement the atmosphere you're trying to create.

Balance Cost and  Durability

Cheaper options might seem appealing, but investing in durable, vitrified porcelain like this saves a huge amount on replacements in the long run.

Stackability is Key

Kitchen space is always tight. Look for tableware that stacks neatly and  safely to maximise your precious storage area.

Versatility Saves Space

Can your dishes go from oven to table to freezer? Multi-functional items like this 192x151mm serving dish reduce the amount of kit you need to buy and  store.

Check the Weight

Consider your staff. Excessively heavy plates can cause fatigue during a long, busy shift. This porcelain offers strength without being cumbersome.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does 'fully vitrified' actually mean?

A: It's a high-temperature firing process that makes the porcelain non-porous, incredibly strong, and  highly resistant to chips, cracks, and  stains.

Q: Are these dishes genuinely oven safe?

A: Yes, they are designed to go directly from a commercial oven to the table, perfect for baking and  serving dishes like pies, gratins, or pasta bakes.

Q: Can I put these in the freezer?

A: Absolutely. They are freezer-proof, which is great for prepping dishes in advance and  managing stock.

Q: What are the 'ears' for?

A: The 'ears' act as handles, providing a much more secure grip for your staff, especially when moving the dish when it's hot from the oven.

Q: What is the BS4034 standard?

A: It's a British Standard that certifies the crockery is durable and  strong enough for the demands of professional hotel and  catering environments.

A: These are sold in a convenient box of six dishes.

A: The main body of the dish, excluding the ears, measures approximately 120mm by 120mm, giving you a good idea of the serving area.

What 'Fully Vitrified' Actually Means for Your Kitchen

You'll see the term 'fully vitrified' on a lot of quality crockery, but what does it really mean? In simple terms, it's a process where the porcelain is fired at an extremely high temperature. This fuses all the clay particles together, turning it into a single, glass-like, non-porous material. Because of this, the dish won't absorb water, oils, or food odours, which is a massive plus for hygiene.

Think of it like the difference between a normal terracotta plant pot and  a glazed mug. The pot soaks up water, while the mug doesn't. Vitrified porcelain acts like that glazed mug, making it far more hygienic, stronger, and  much more resistant to stains and  the chipping that happens from everyday knocks in a busy kitchen.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Gastropubs & Bistros: Absolutely perfect for serving up individual shepherd's pies, lasagnes, or sizzling side dishes straight from the oven.
  • Hotel Restaurants: A durable and  elegant choice for serving appetisers in the main dining room or for in-room dining orders.
  • Busy Cafés: Ideal for presenting baked breakfast dishes, hot desserts like crumbles, or hearty macaroni and  cheese portions.
  • Contract Caterers: A cost-effective and  incredibly robust commercial catering oven dish for high-volume service in canteens and  event halls.
