Kitchen Tableware
A kitchen is incomplete without good quality tableware. Hence,
it is very essential for you to invest in branded and good quality
products. The tableware you display in front of your guests
shows your taste and interest in entertaining them. Tableware
includes things like cutlery, eating utensils, drinkware and
dishware.
Types of Tableware...
Cutlery & Eating utensils
Cutlery basically refers to any hand utensil that is used in preparing, serving and especially eating food. In the US, it's known as silverware or flatware. However, all are not made up of silver; hence the word tableware has come about. Cutlery includes things like forks, spoons, and knives. Earlier, the good quality tableware was made from silver, though steel was used for more utilitarian knives and pewter was used for some cheaper items, especially spoons. But now days, good quality cutlery with designs is made from stainless steel.
Drinkware
Glasses are often clear, but are sometimes coloured, or printed or etched with decorations. Drinkware includes beaker, beer stein, chalice and goblet, coffee cup or mug, cup, mug, quaich, sake cup and tea cup. The different glasses are Collins glass, Iced tea glass, Pilsner glass, Shot glass, Wheat beer glass, Wine glass, Highball glass, Juice glass, Pint glass, Tumbler, Cocktail glass. As you can see, the glasses depend on the type of beverages one wants to drink. For instance, a wine glass is especially for wines.
Dishware
Dishware basically refers to plates and bowls, from which people eat or serve food. Dishware or dinnerware as it is popularly known is usually made up of porcelain china, though glass and durable plastics such as melamine are also used.
