Dining Supplies Must-Have #4: Commercial Dinnerware
Perhaps it's safe to say that without the proper restaurant dinnerware, your restaurant or food-service establishment would not be what it is. Let's face it: commercial dinnerware is one of the most essential aspects of a food-service business. And it's worth mentioning that purchasing the best restaurant dinnerware is imperative because hundreds (or even thousands, if you own a large restaurant or food-service establishment) of customers and diners use commercial dinnerware (which includes main dishes, side dishes, and different types of bowls such as salad bowls) on a daily basis.
Commercial dinnerware made of melamine is one of the most durable and heavy-duty types of restaurant dish, and it is not surprising that it's some of the most popular and oft-used types of restaurant dinnerware in use nowadays.

Dining Supplies Must-Have #6: Restaurant Server Trays
Restaurant server trays are must-have foodservice equipment, especially for restaurants and caterers. Restaurant server trays help your foodservice crew deliver orders to their respective customers and diners safely and conveniently.
Because restaurant server trays are used frequently by your waiters, waitresses, and busboys on any given day, they should be durable and—more importantly—slip-free so your food servers can avoid accidentally dropping food items, beverages, or glasses and dishes.
