Tabletop and Smallwares Guides

Foodservice operators use cookware to both prepare and serve a variety of food items. Commercial cookware uses different types of materials and it comes in different sizes and configurations for various applications.

Although cookware preferences are typically chef-driven, there are a number of considerations when choosing materials, type and sizes.

When selecting pots and pans, the material must be strong to withstand the rigors of constant heavy-duty use.

 Although stainless steel and aluminum cookware is generally dishwasher safe, hand washing will help preserve its appearance.

Commercial dinnerware includes bowls, plates, platters, cups and mugs, in addition to accessories, such as creamers, salt and pepper shakers, and other ancillary items used on the table.
