Hendi Plates. Hendi catalogue from SIA La RONDE
Plate choice affects how food is presented and how easily staff can serve, clear and clean it. SIA La RONDE offers a compact porcelain snack dish and the SPECIALE BAROCCO pasta dish, each suited to a different portion and table task. Consider the food, the desired presentation and the work that follows service when deciding which form belongs in the kitchen’s tableware range.
Equipment and tasks
The compact snack dish is intended for small servings that benefit from a separate vessel. Use it for an individual snack or a modest accompaniment when a larger plate would take up unnecessary table or tray space. Its shallow form suits food that does not need a deep bowl, and porcelain provides a hard ceramic surface for routine handling. Because it is suitable for both microwave use and dishwasher cleaning, staff can reheat a portion in the dish and then place it with the machine-wash load after service.
SPECIALE BAROCCO is intended for serving different pasta dishes in professional use. Its wider, deeper form gives the kitchen room to arrange pasta for presentation and keep accompanying sauce within the dish while it is carried to the table. The floral decoration beneath the enamel gives the piece a distinctive finish. Food-safe porcelain is suitable for direct contact with the meal; microwave suitability and dishwasher-safe cleaning support routine reheating and wash-up.
Parameters in use
The snack dish measures 100 mm across and 25 mm high. Its compact diameter helps staff portion a small snack or accompaniment in a clearly defined area, while the shallow height suits servings that do not require substantial depth. This makes it useful when setting a tray or table with a small item kept separate from a main course. Its porcelain construction is confirmed as suitable for microwave use and dishwasher cleaning, linking serving, reheating and wash-up in one piece of tableware.
The pasta dish measures 275 mm in diameter and 60 mm high. The broad serving area gives chefs space to arrange pasta without crowding the presentation, while the added depth helps contain sauce as the dish is carried and served. Durable porcelain is suited to repeated handling in professional service. The dish is safe for food contact and suitable for microwave use and dishwasher cleaning, so staff can use it through service and the subsequent cleaning routine. Its floral design sits beneath the enamel, adding decoration to the finished table presentation.
Choosing a product
Choose the snack dish when the task calls for a small, separate serving rather than a full plated course. Its compact footprint works for snacks and accompaniments, while its shallow shape is appropriate for portions that need little depth. For pasta, choose SPECIALE BAROCCO when the dish needs to provide more room for arrangement and sauce. Its floral finish can also contribute to the appearance of the meal at the table.
Both products are porcelain and offer practical microwave and dishwasher suitability, but their forms are intended for different serving jobs. Match the compact dish to a small portion and the wider pasta dish to a composed pasta serving. Considering portion size, sauce and presentation before service helps staff select the right vessel for the meal and manage the transition from serving to cleaning.
