Pasta bowls

I need new ones as our ikea ones are chipped too much now. Even though they're not actually that old! Hmm

So where are yours from?

I want a shallow bowl, without a wide rim (like a fancy gastro pub plate/ dish), and it needs to be fairly robust as 2yo dd needs to use grown up bowls and plates now. :)

Thanks!

You can't beat Denby IMO!!! Microwave, freezer, dishwasher, oven safe and very robust! Grin

Emma Bridgewater does some nice wide pasta bowls in various patterns.

I've seen Denby and Jamie Oliver ones fitting that description in TK Maxx a couple of months back. I was looking for my two year old so I know what style you mean.

We have those Denby bowls and use them more often than plates: not only pasta, but stir fry, curry, chilli, risotto... They have loads of colours and there is quite a tempting sale on the website at the moment.

We have some very nice porcelain plain white ones from m and s,. The range is called maxim. There is 20 per cent off homeware thee at the moment, so I would imagine this makes them about a fiver each. You can buy them singly, which is ideal. The john rocha etch ones from debenhams are nice too, but pricier.

We got ours from Matalan for about £2.50 a piece. Perfectly serviceable. Have seen similar cheap sets in Tesco, BHS et al.

I second the M&S Maxim range. They're perfect to replace if one gets chipped as M&S have had that range since we got married 10 years ago! Pasta bowls are useful for other meals too, like chilli or casserole. We use ours loads.

I got out lovely ones from Whittards in the sale Smile

I too use my pasta dishes for almost all my meals. John Lewis/Waitrose would be a good place to look for quality bowls which won't chip.

We have Denby ones, and also use them for lots of meals.

I bake individual lasagnes in mine.
