Expert Review and Insights
Olympia have really delivered a winner with the GF208. It taps right into that desirable, rustic aesthetic that customers love, but it doesn't sacrifice practicality. The recessed side is a brilliantly simple solution to stop ramekins sliding about during service, while the flat side makes it a genuinely versatile piece for any menu. It's a beautiful, hardworking bit of tableware.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Brewer's Lantern, a bustling gastropub in York, wanted to move away from standard white plates for their popular sharing starters, seeking something with more rustic character. They needed a solution that was both attractive and practical for their high-volume service.
"Our 'Trio of Dips' platter used to look so... flat. These boards instantly added warmth and a premium feel. Customers even comment on them, which almost never happened with our old crockery. They just make the food look more appealing."
Mark Richardson – Head Chef
The simple switch to the Olympia boards resulted in their sharing platter sales increasing by a noticeable 20% within the first three months.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Getting Started
- Before its first use, give the board a quick wipe with a clean, damp cloth.
- Apply a light coat of food-safe mineral oil to all surfaces to season the wood.
- Decide which side suits your dish best – the recessed side for dips or the flat side for a platter.
- For a perfect fit, pair with Olympia ramekins or any ramekin up to 95mm in diameter.
Keeping It Perfect
- Always hand wash with a mild soap and warm water. Never, ever put it in the dishwasher.
- Do not leave the board to soak in water, as this can cause the wood to warp or crack.
- Dry it thoroughly with a tea towel immediately after washing.
- Re-apply a thin layer of food-safe oil every few weeks to maintain its rich colour and protective finish.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the board made from?
A: It's crafted from beautiful and highly durable Acacia wood, known for its rich grain and strength.
Q: Is it dishwasher safe?
A: No, this board is strictly hand-wash only to protect the natural wood from damage and warping.
Q: What size ramekins fit in the recesses?
A: The three recesses are perfectly sized to securely hold ramekins up to 95mm in diameter.
Q: Can I use both sides of the board?
A: Absolutely! It’s designed to be double-sided, with one side featuring three recesses and the other being completely flat for maximum versatility.
Q: How heavy is it?
A: It’s very lightweight at just 0.41kg, making it easy and comfortable for your staff to handle during a busy service.
Q: Does it come pre-oiled?
A: It has a factory finish, but we always recommend applying a food-safe mineral oil before first use and regularly thereafter to keep it in prime condition.
Q: Can I use this as a chopping board?
A: While acacia is a hardwood, we strongly recommend using it for presentation only. This will prevent knife marks and preserve its beautiful finish for years to come.
Q: Is every board identical in appearance?
A: No, and that's part of their charm! Due to the natural variations in acacia wood, each board has its own unique grain and colour pattern.

Explore more from OlympiaWhy Acacia Wood Is More Than Just a Pretty Face
You might see 'Acacia Wood' and think it’s just about those beautiful, swirling patterns – but there's some serious performance packed in there too. Acacia is a hardwood, which in simple terms means it’s naturally tough and dense. This makes it far more resistant to scratches and dings from cutlery and daily use compared to softer woods like pine. Think of it like the difference between a sturdy oak table and a flimsy patio chair. Furthermore, its dense grain makes it less likely to absorb odours or flavours from food, and when oiled properly, it has excellent natural water resistance. So while it brings the looks, this acacia wood ramekin serving board also brings the toughness needed for a professional kitchen.
Who Should Buy This?
- Gastropubs & Bistros: Perfect for serving trio starters, artisan bread with oils, or a modern ploughman's lunch.
- Modern Cafés: A stylish way to present cakes with cream, or a sandwich with a side salad pot.
- Wine Bars & Delis: The ultimate acacia wood sharing platter for charcuterie, cheese selections, and olives.
- Boutique Hotels: Elevate your room service or bar snacks with this elegant restaurant ramekin presentation board.
