Not, how do you blow

Do you heat your food plates before serving dinner?

I really dislike a cold plat

You are a fussy lady. Lucky that I didn't marry you!

Heating them up is something I really need to start doing. It was a nightmare yesterday plating up the roast for all my family. I should know better with working in hospitality x

I’ll heat up plates if a meal is likely to cool a lot when serving, like a roast for a number of people. But when I’m serving piping hot food from a pan immediately it seems pointless for me as the food heats the plates to an unbearable level anyway. So in the main I don’t bother.

Oh and often my side vegetables are salad so heating the plate isn’t a good idea.

This annoys me slightly. When eating out, they always bring children's meals on hot plates. Unless I ask them not too of course.

I don't like a hot plate with salad but I do with hot food.

When I worked as a catering temp there was one place where the hot plate warmer must have had a thermo nuclear setting.

I'd go home every day with my fingers burnt to buggery.

No. hot food in our house rarely gets the chance to go cold from cold plates

My local carvery pub heats the plates to inferno level so we have service trays, which also helps when I overdo it on the gravy and it spills over

Oh gosh, when you're stood at a table of guests holding the plates & no one remembers what they fucking ordered & your fingers are just sizzling with an upcoming blister "Take the fucking plate Karen!!"

Anything involving salad, no.

Anything involving cooked veg, yes cos I hate cold veg.

No point cooking something for it to be lukewarm by the time I plate it up for the kids & finally sit down a few mins later after turning hob or oven off etc.

If I am putting hot food on my plate my plate has to be warmed first I am such a slow eater so helps keep it warmer for longer.

I’d like to do hot plates with any cooked meal, but practicality rarely allows.

If the oven is going to be on for a while, I put plates in the grill so the transferred heat warms them up.

My local carvery does likewise, they then give you a wad of paper napkins to enable you hold it.

At home I use one of those Brabantia tealight powered food warmers for plate warming.

I've never heated a plate in my life. Didn't even realise it was a "thing" apart from when you get a red hot plate in a restaurant. Restaurants. Anyone remember them, they used to be about in the "old days"
