British tabletop manufacturer, Steelite International, has just launched the ‘Opera’ range of bowls to meet the increasing demand for bowl food.
Inspired by the famous and legendary shells that top the Sydney Opera House, the bowls feature symmetrical but opposing curves that create a fascinating interplay of surfaces which, like their inspiration, are intended to draw the eye to the food and excite the palate.
Bowl food is becoming a much more popular option for both casual and occasion dining, allowing customers and guests to try different food combinations in smaller portion sizes. And with the continuing trend for unusual shapes of tableware – particularly for appetisers, entrees and desserts – Steelite’s all-white Opera bowls enhance the colour and tone of food presentation to perfection.
Simon Hulstone, head chef at the Michelin starred Elephant restaurant and brasserie in Torquay and captain of the Steelite sponsored English culinary team comments: “We see bowl food moving to the next level. This exciting trend allows the chef to offer more complex dishes as bowl food presented in smaller portions. Guests can be offered two or three small bowls of delicious small meals and still enjoy a sophisticated eating experience.
“The Opera bowls with their uniquely inspired shell shapes will add style to any occasion.”
Manufactured at the home of pottery in Stoke-on-Trent, the Opera bowl range is covered by a lifetime edge-chip warranty to give the operator the reassurance that they are investing in a quality product that is specifically designed for the heavy usage of the hospitality industry.
