What has really surprised me about Steelite is the durability of the line. Today at Black Barn we use quite a few pieces and colors of the Wabi Sabi collection, which has made simple food look stunning. RECOMMENDATIONS sharing the passion GAVIN KAYSEN CHEF & OWNER • Spoon and Stable Minneapolis, MN As a chef I find there is a difference between art and commerce, but working with Steelite, I am able to express my feeling as both. The plates are a clean canvas to our food, the art, while maintaining the affordability of having such beautiful and durable plates on my table every night at the restaurant. RECOMMENDATIONS sharing the passion THOMAS BUCKLEY EXECUTIVE CHEF • Nobu Miami Miami Beach, FL It’s very rare that something encompasses both form and function, but La Tavola by Steelite has succeeded with flying colors. The whole process of working with Steelite and the La Tavola team, from the initial design, placement and training to choosing the color scheme and buffet pieces, is similar to that of purchasing a luxury car. The beauty and simplicity of its design provides inspiration for myself and my team.
