Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Gilded Sparrow, a contemporary British restaurant in Harrogate, North Yorkshire, was looking to refresh its tableware to better reflect its creative, locally-sourced menu. They needed something that was both visually striking and  tough enough for a fully-booked service, night after night.

"The moment we saw the Steelite Legacy plates, we knew they were the one. The ginger and  ink design complements our dishes perfectly, making the colours of the food just sing. Our customers constantly comment on them, and  they’ve proven incredibly resilient in the kitchen."

Robert Finch – Head Chef, The Gilded Sparrow

By switching to the Steelite Legacy VV1906 coupe plate, the restaurant significantly elevated its visual identity, leading to a noticeable increase in social media shares from diners and  a reduction in chipping-related replacement costs.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon delivery, carefully inspect each plate for any transit damage before use.
  • Give the plates a full wash cycle in your commercial dishwasher to remove any dust or residue from manufacturing and  shipping.
  • Ensure your shelving is clean, dry, and  strong enough to support the weight of a full box.

Keeping It Going

  • To prevent scuffs, avoid sliding plates over one another; lift them when stacking or unstacking.
  • Although highly durable, avoid using harsh abrasive scourers which can dull the glaze over time.
  • Stack plates of the same size and  shape together for maximum stability and  to save space.
  • Rinse off acidic foods like lemon or vinegar soon after use to maintain the glaze's integrity long-term.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Crockery

Not sure what fits best for your business? Here are a few pointers to help you choose the perfect tableware.

Focus on Durability

Look for vitrified ceramic with features like rolled or reinforced edges. It costs more upfront but saves a fortune on replacements in a busy commercial environment.

Match Your Aesthetic

Your plates are part of your brand. Choose a colour and  style that complements your decor, brand, and  the type of food you serve. A unique design can be a real talking point.

Check for Stackability

Space is always tight in a professional kitchen. Ensure your chosen plates stack neatly and  securely to maximise your storage without risking a domino effect.

Consider Versatility

Can a plate work for both starters and  desserts? Can the bowl be used for pasta and  soup? Choosing versatile pieces means you can do more with a smaller inventory.

Think Long-Term Value

Don't just look at the price per plate. Consider its lifespan, resistance to chipping and  staining, and  its impact on food presentation. Quality plates are an investment, not just a cost.
