Product Information
Full details
The Olympia Round Chip Basket (95mm) is an ideal serving solution for professional caterers, bistros, and home entertainers looking to elevate their table presentation with an industrial, gastro-pub aesthetic. Its primary benefit is providing a stylish and consistent way to serve sides like fries, tapas, or appetizers directly to the table. However, users should note its compact size, which is designed specifically for individual portions or smaller shareable sides rather than large family-style servings.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare the basket for service, it is highly recommended to use a food-grade parchment or greaseproof paper liner; this ensures easy cleanup and prevents food oils from sticking to the wire mesh. While the basket is crafted from durable materials designed for professional environments, it should not be exposed to direct heat sources or used as a deep-frying insert inside a fryer. For cleaning, simply place the unit in a commercial or domestic dishwasher. Ensure the basket is completely dry before storage to maintain the integrity of the finish.
