Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
Udon Know Me, a popular Japanese street food vendor in Manchester's Northern Quarter, needed to upgrade from their mismatched set of bowls. Constant chipping was becoming costly and looked unprofessional, so they invested in the Royal Porcelain GT909 bowls.
“These bowls have been brilliant. They handle the pressure of a non-stop service, they come out of the dishwasher looking perfect every time, and our food has never looked better. Our customers have even commented on how nice they are.”
Leo Wilson – Owner
Since making the switch, the business has reduced its tableware replacement budget by over 80% and improved service speed due to easier handling and stacking.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon delivery, carefully unbox and inspect each bowl for any signs of damage during transit.
- Before their first use, we recommend running all bowls through a full dishwasher cycle to ensure they are perfectly clean and ready for service.
- Designate a specific, safe, and easily accessible shelf for storage to minimise unnecessary handling and risk of dropping.
Keeping It Going
- Although tough, avoid extreme and sudden temperature changes (e.g., from a freezer directly into a hot oven) to prevent thermal shock.
- When washing by hand, use a soft cloth or non-abrasive plastic scourer to protect the glaze from fine scratches.
- Regularly check the rims for any small chips. While resistant, a damaged bowl should be removed from service to ensure food safety.
- Ensure bowls are completely dry before stacking to prevent moisture from being trapped between them.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does 'fully vitrified' actually mean?
A: Vitrification is a process where the porcelain is fired at a very high temperature, causing the material to become non-porous and glass-like. This makes it much stronger, more hygienic, and highly resistant to moisture absorption and chipping.
Q: How well do these bowls stack?
A: They are designed for professional kitchens and stack very well. The shape is uniform, and the smooth, hard glaze helps prevent the scuffing and marking that can occur with lesser-quality tableware.
Q: Is the white finish likely to stain from dishes like ramen or curry?
A: No, the high-quality glaze creates a non-porous barrier that is highly resistant to staining from food colourings and strong spices. A standard wash will remove any residue.
Q: Can I use metal cutlery without leaving grey marks?
A: Yes, the hard-fired glaze on this commercial-grade porcelain is designed to be resistant to marks from stainless steel cutlery during normal use.
Q: What is the approximate capacity of this bowl in millilitres?
A: While not specified, a deep bowl with a 175mm diameter typically holds between 750ml and 850ml, making it ideal for a large portion of ramen or pho with broth and toppings.
Q: Is the base of the bowl glazed?
A: Typically, commercial bowls like this have a smooth, unglazed 'foot' ring on the bottom to ensure stability during firing and when placed on surfaces. The rest of the bowl is fully glazed.
Q: Are these bowls heavy?
A: They have a reassuring weight that signals quality without being overly heavy or cumbersome for waiting staff to carry.
Q: Can these bowls go straight from a hot-hold oven to the table?
A: Yes, they are designed to be oven-safe and can handle being held at warm temperatures before being served.
The Royal Porcelain Promise: Consistency in Every Bowl
Choosing Royal Porcelain isn't just about buying a bowl; it's an investment in your restaurant's operational consistency and reputation. With a long-standing history of equipping professional kitchens, Royal Porcelain understands that tableware is a tool that must perform flawlessly, day in and day out. The Maxadura range, including the GT909 bowl, is a testament to this philosophy. The real-world value lies not just in its chip resistance but in the confidence it gives you. You can trust that the tenth bowl you pull from the stack will look as pristine as the first, ensuring every customer receives the same high-quality presentation. This long-term reliability reduces your replacement costs, minimises service disruptions from breakages, and ultimately upholds the professional standard you strive for with every dish that leaves your kitchen.
Explore more from Royal PorcelainWhat Makes Maxadura Porcelain So Tough?
Ever wondered what 'Maxadura' or 'aluminous porcelain' actually means? Think of it like reinforced concrete for tableware. Standard porcelain is strong, but by infusing it with alumina (a type of aluminium oxide), manufacturers create a much denser and more durable material. This hidden strength is what gives the Royal Porcelain GT909 bowl its impressive resistance to chipping and cracking from everyday bumps, scrapes with cutlery, and stacking. It doesn’t change the smooth, elegant look of the porcelain, but it means the bowl can withstand the rigours of a commercial kitchen far better than standard ceramic, giving you a longer-lasting, better-value product.
