Dapper Displays
Buffets areas are a staple of most hotels, especially ones which offer breakfast and lunch options With refined options for crocker y cutler y and glassware it seems only right to match them with an equally premium food display area
So, if you ’ re looking to add a touch of sophistication to your display offering we firstly recommend items from Craster’s new range of Fare Display Trolleys The system is fully modular meaning it can be tailored to your par ticular taste and layout along with various shelves pots and rails allowing you to build exactly what you need
If you are already happy with your buffet area but want some new ways of displaying the food itself, then Craster have you covered on that front too by way of their Tilt Buffet range The selection comprises of multi-level stainless-steel riser frames and matching presentation plinths and bowls The plinths can be made of either walnut white marble or grey marble whilst the bowls come in brass, grey ceramic and white ceramic giving your displays a stylish and contemporar y aesthetic

The selection of products include classic black with golden handle mini ser ving fr ying pans, saucepans, and oval dishes along with copper ser ving cups and ramekins and finished with accenting industrial steel pieces too
Melamine Is Going Mainstream
Finally we come to our last trend which is the inclusion and rise in popularity in melamine buffet solutions The durability and versality makes it perfect for catering ser veware but the finish ensures that the material doesn’t look plastic A prime example of a sleek and modern use of melamine is the Hoxton range from Dalebrook with its matte finish and wide variety of dishes and platters making it perfect for any hotel or restaurant buffet area
