Urban lunch presentation during the lunch break

Hot & cold lunch staged in a modern way

The lunch business in the catering industry is booming, and not just at traditional lunchtimes. In big cities in particular, the lunch break has become a consciously chosen time-out from the stress of everyday life, where enjoyment takes centre stage. The dishes are skilfully presented using modern catering tableware, making lunch breaks a highlight of the day.

Working hours and locations have become more flexible since the pandemic, meaning that more and more guests are turning up at times of day that were previously considered unprofitable for restaurateurs. The lunch break - especially in urban areas - has become a personal time-out for guests and goes far beyond the mere need for a fortifying meal.

Escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life with catering crockery

Soup break with a plate with a high rim - BHS tabletop

Caterers can do a lot to offer their guests a change from their working day. Offering that certain something in terms of ambience and food presentation is also possible with the right catering crockery, which prevents boredom in terms of shape and colour. To create a visual ‘haven of peace’ for lunch guests in the midst of the everyday hectic pace of life, the  PERFECT MATCH catering crockery from HEART & SOUL is presented in the five colours _avocado, _breeze, _cumin, _oyster and _thyme, which are inspired by nature and evoke associations with Mediterranean flora and fauna. The handmade look and the fact that no two decorations are the same makes each item unique.

Finally, this collection provides caterers with a wide selection of modern dish sets, catering plates, and bowls with which they can surprise even regular guests anew every day.

Modern dish sets with a high rim

Plates with a high, straight rim are currently popular and can be used very flexibly. Incidentally, this plate shape is much easier for service staff to grip than you might think at first glance. It's no wonder that this shape is in demand and popular, as it is also suitable for almost any creation from the kitchen - whether it's a cold starter, main course or soup.

Delicious and light: bowl food

Bowls are now one of the most popular urban lunch dishes, as they provide energy for the afternoon without leaving you feeling full. They are light, nutritious and flavoursome thanks to the valuable and sometimes raw ingredients. This is an advantage if you don't want to fall into a lunchtime slump after a meal. With many bowls and dishes, PERFECT MATCH offers the right, aesthetic catering crockery for bowl food. Flat and deep modern coup plates in various sizes provide variety when serving other vitamin kicks from the cold kitchen.

Warming for body & soul, served in PERFECT MATCH - BHS tabletop

The cooler months of the year often make us crave a warm dish at lunchtime that warms the body and soul and is simply good for you - real ‘soul food’! Hearty soups, power broths, stews, goulash and other classics, served in deep coup plates and bowls, recharge your batteries for the second half of the day.

The right catering crockery also manages to convey warmth visually and create a feel-good moment. For the guest's little, relaxed ‘me-time’ during their lunch break.
