White Soup Bowls

Set a restaurant-ready dinner table with classic white soup bowls. Typically wider and shallower in design than cereal bowls, these dishes are an integral component in traditional table settings. The foundation of each place setting is the placemat, on top of which is the charger for formal dining. The dinner plate should be above the charger, followed by the soup bowl. Remember that the soup spoon sits to the right of the dinnerware. The stark simplicity of white soup bowls creates a perfect palette for vibrant red tomato soup and gazpacho, and serves up a scoop of classic style with consommé and chowder. Complete your in-home mini-cafe with dishes in glazed porcelain, handmade stoneware or new bone china. Cooking up lots of Asian-inspired soups, such as miso, pho and ramen? Square white bowls feel especially clean and modern alongside contrasting black chopsticks.
