Tasting Plates and Bowls for Restaurant and Event Service

The distinction between a tasting plate and a full plate matters most in the moment it is placed in front of a guest. A tasting plate is sized for one or two bites — it frames food that is meant to be experienced rather than consumed. Mini tasting plates and mini appetizer plates cover the smaller end of that range: 8 to 10 cm formats for reception service, amuse-bouche presentations, and event canápé programmes where the piece is carried and handed over rather than set down.

MyGlassStudio makes tasting plates and tasting bowls in glass for fine dining tasting menus, hotel reception service, and event canápé presentations. The full restaurant serveware range gives category context. The catering serveware collection covers the full catering piece family.

Glass adds something specific at this scale. A small tasting plate in smoke-tinted glass reads differently to a white ceramic equivalent — the colour of the glass interacts with the food sitting on it rather than disappearing behind it. For a kitchen presenting a signature bite, that interaction is part of the presentation. It doesn’t chip white at the rim and doesn’t absorb sauce colour across the service life of the piece.
