No wonder, in a hotel's or a restaurant's kitchen and as well as in hotel's room service, crockery plays a very important role. Presenting your food to your guest can be a tricky proposition, especially if you are not used to making it look pretty on the plate.
Before you begin styling your food, you need to decide on what you will present it on. You wouldn't want all your efforts in the kitchen to be ruined by your choice of plates. Plates should complement your food presentation and heighten your culinary skills.
Adding Delight to Eating
The various types of crockery used in hotels' and restaurants' kitchens and hotels' room service depends on the type of menu/ cuisine that is being served. For example, the requirement of crockery for soup varies from the crockery required for serving pastas (depending on its nature-consistency and texture of food).
If the right crockery selection is made for the right food then this facilitates the eating experience, as ideally eating should not only involve satiating of hunger and palate, but also a celebration of all the senses.
Good food with appropriate crockery selection could result in wonders. The right selection of crockery helps to put the right impression on the guest, making them delightful and to think about a repeat visit to the establishment, which may eventually increase the number of footfalls at the restaurant.
Nowadays, crockery is used extensively in India in the hospitality sector and due to the evolving hotel industry, the use of crockery has been not only restricted to serve food but also extended in terms of eye appealing presentations and in terms of serving food in a style which lasts long in the minds of the guests and gives value addition to the overall meal experience.
