When you first set up your restaurant or pub one of the first choices that you make when you start deciding on your décor and tables and linens is what kind of catering crockery will you use. Your table settings, whether at your own establishment or if you are on a catering assignment, make a silent first impression on your diners.
How your table looks depends on the catering crockery that you have selected based on your taste. Besides being functional, your catering crockery should also be stylish. It can be simple and classic or colourful and trendy; the choice is yours and reflects your taste.
Some of the simplest selections of catering crockery that will stand the test of time are the Athena line. Made of porcelain china, the Athena hotel ware is a beautifully classic set of white ware that is at home in a charming little bistro or a busy English pub.
The coffee cups in the line are stackable and dishwasher safe. An invaluable trait is the chip resistant edges. With all of the wear and tear of a busy dining establishment or pub, you want good sturdy catering crockery that can withstand the constant wear and tear of the dishwashing trays, the bus help throwing it into the bus pans and then putting them away on shelves.
The Athena line of catering crockery carries cappuccino cups as well as coffee or tea mugs. The oval coupe plate is just the thing for fish and chips leaving plenty of room for a good size portion. The Athena wide rimmed plates come in 8-inch, 9-inch and 10-inch sizes.
The dinner plates in the Athena porcelain line are a nice wide rimmed eleven inches in diameter. An oatmeal bowl is included in the Athena hotel ware collection and all of the porcelain pieces are microwave safe. Salt and pepper shakers in the same style will complement the table setting along with the sachet holders to neatly hold sugar packets. Individual teapots complete the set and you will be ready for any type of catering event.
An equally lovely and functional line of catering crockery is the Lumina Fine China. Contemporary in design these classic pieces of fine china are strong enough to take the everyday use in a busy restaurant or hotel yet maintain a classy décor. Each piece is microwave, oven and freezer safe.
The Lumina line carries a nice assortment of square plates and bowls that range in size and complement each other. Nice 12-ounce latte mugs will easily hold a nice cappuccino or latte. Oval beverage pots in the Lumina line are perfect for afternoon tea and are available in 15-ounce and 30-ounce sizes. Pitchers to hold cream and sugar bowls in the Lumina line are classic and yet functional. The addition of small bud vases in the line let you dress up your table and keep the same style going.
If you are a no frills eatery, hotel or small bistro, the classic simplicity of the Athena catering crockery will do the trick. If you are looking for a fancier yet still functional line you will be happy with the Lumina line of fine china.
