How to choose the right Vega Plates

• Match plate diameter to portion size, from small 9cm and 15cm pieces for sides and desserts up to 25cm and 27cm plates for main courses.
• Decide between deep and flat profiles depending on your menu mix of sauced dishes, pastas, salads and classic plated mains.
• Use oval plates where you need modern presentation for sharing dishes, sides or tasting menus without overcrowding the table.
• Consider how the plate colour and shape will complement your existing Bonna and house tableware ranges.
• Plan stock levels based on peak covers and course count so you have enough plates to rotate through dishwashing without delays.
• Check pack quantities and budget for spares to cover breakages in busy restaurants, hotels or banqueting venues.

Care and maintenance

• Wash Vega plates promptly after service using a commercial dishwasher and a quality warewashing detergent compatible with porcelain.
• Avoid abrasive pads and harsh chemicals that can dull the glaze or cause premature wear on the plate surface.
• Stack plates carefully by size and style, using plate racks where possible to reduce chipping on rims and edges.
• Inspect plates regularly for chips or cracks and remove damaged items from service to maintain safety and presentation standards.
• Allow plates to cool between oven, heat lamp or pass use and washing cycles to minimise thermal shock.
• Train staff on correct handling, stacking and transport of crockery to extend the life of your Vega tableware investment.
