Pasta plates – more than just for pasta
Pasta plates—deeper than a dinner plate but flatter than a bowl—are multifunctional. They offer ample space to hold sauces and broths without spilling, and they elegantly present dishes like risotto, curry, and salad. Mimo pasta plates are sturdy, heat-resistant, and hand-glazed. They come in 20- and 24-piece sets, giving you the freedom to customize your tableware to suit your menu.
