TYPES OF PLATES, PURPOSE AND MATERIAL

The most common shape of a plate is round, although it can also be rectangular or polygonal, depending on its purpose. Plates also differ in what they are used for. They can be deep or shallow.
Deep plates are mainly used for hot and cold soups, while shallow plates have a much broader purpose - for appetizers, side dishes, main courses, etc.
