Dudson Evo Tapas Dish

The Dudson Evo Tapas Dish is a small vitrified stoneware dish for sharing plates, side servings and informal table presentation. The Evo range is finished to look like hand-thrown pottery, with a textured, tactile surface that adds warmth to a table setting where plain white crockery would not. It comes in three colours, Pearl, Jet and Granite, and two sizes: 118mm in packs of 12 and 159mm in packs of 6.

Vitrified stoneware is a practical choice for commercial table service. It is denser and more chip-resistant than standard earthenware, so it copes with stacking, quick clearing and repeated commercial dishwasher cycles. The 118mm dish suits tapas portions, condiments and small sides. The 159mm dish gives a bigger serving area for olives, charcuterie, dips, small sides or plated amuse-bouche. Jet is a dark, neutral colourway that sets off lighter food and garnishes, Granite has a granite-effect finish, and Pearl has a pearl glaze.

Stoneware is slightly heavier than standard porcelain, which is worth bearing in mind when front-of-house staff carry several pieces at once. Operators with high cover volumes or demanding wash cycles should consider holding extra packs so dishes can rotate through the dishwasher without running short on the floor.

These dishes suit restaurants, tapas bars, wine bars, gastropubs and hotel food and beverage operations running sharing-plate or small-plates menus. If you are building a table service specification or want help with quantities for your covers, the team is happy to talk it through.
