Whether you run a small rural pub or a large restaurant serving hundreds of people every night, if you’re in the catering industry, you’re likely to own a large amount of crockery. And, as crockery can make or break your customers’ impressions of your establishment, keeping it in good condition is vital. At Nisbets, we understand the importance of having attractive, presentable crockery, and as a result, we offer a selection of items that will help you keep your plates and dishes in good condition, and your customers coming back for more.

Of all the occasions in the catering calendar, few guarantee bookings in restaurants quite like this one. That's right, Valentine’s Day is just around the
corner. This Friday, bars, restaurants and hotels will be full of loved-up
couples looking for the perfect romantic meal for two, and for the hospitality
industry, this is undoubtedly one of the most important nights of the year.
Thousands of people will be making reservations for that
special night, and if you’ve taken bookings, this is the perfect time to try
and win some repeat custom. If your customers enjoy Valentine’s Day at your
restaurant, you can bet they’ll be back time and time again. Get it wrong,
however, and it could spell disaster.
My pick for Nisbets product of the week has to be these Samsung microwaves.
It is an interesting fact that microwave ovens were discovered accidentally, when in the 1940s after World War II, a self taught engineer called Percy Spencer was building radar equipment in a lab for Raytheon and soon realised that a chocolate bar he had in his pocket was starting to melt. During this time he was building magnetrons and realised that if the microwaves were directed at food it would heat it up rapidly. He tested this idea by popping popcorn and exploding an egg - well what a gem of a machine it's turned out to be!
