Expanded collections meet growing demand for tapas-size portions
Small plates are no longer just a
Spanish thing – for just about every cuisine you could name, there are
restaurants offering tapas-portion-size menus.
As well as using small plates, operators are looking for different ways
to present small portions and sides – resulting in a similar increase in use
for that relatively recent addition to the tableware scene, the humble chip pot. Consequently the demand for small plates and
chip pots has shot up, so much so that Utopia has expanded some of its most
popular casual dining collections by adding a selection of these pieces to
them. The expanded collections include Solstice,
Truffle, Parador, Ink, Coral and Goa.
The six offer a wide range of
different design styles. Solstice has
natural white and green hues with an eye-catching speckled design. Truffle mixes an earthy brown interior with a
raw biscuit exterior while, in stark contrast, Parador features a bright,
striking, Alhambra-inspired geometric pattern.
Ink’s rich blue colourway has a low-sheen glaze; Coral mixes striking
pinks and reds; and Goa’s reactive glaze creates a warm fusion of contrasting
light browns and speckles.
As well as featuring chip pots (30cl)
and small plates (17.5cm), these collections offer several other small serving
options, such as bowls, walled plates and dip dishes. All are made of vitrified porcelain, for
strength and durability, and are dishwasher safe.
Prices for the small plates start
from £7.98 for the chip pots.
