Product Insights

The Menu Du Jour Large Plate by Simons Maison combines a casual café aesthetic with functional durability, featuring a white ceramic body and glossy glaze that seals the 'MENU DU JOUR' pattern for longevity. At $15 CAD, this individually sold plate offers an exclusive design and a 10.25-inch size that fits standard dishwashers and cabinets while holding a full entrée. Its microwave-safe, no-metallic-pigment pattern prevents sparking, and the glaze blocks moisture and reduces thermal shock risk. However, preserving the glossy finish and avoiding glaze clouding requires hand washing, and oven use is not recommended, creating a trade-off between convenience and long-term appearance.

Verified claims

Design
White ceramic with glossy finish and 'MENU DU JOUR' pattern evokes a casual café style.
Pattern durability
The 'MENU DU JOUR' pattern is sealed under the glaze for durability.
Value proposition
At $15 CAD, it's an exclusive Simons Maison design sold individually, not in a required multipack.
Size
10.25-inch diameter fits standard dishwashers and cabinets and holds a full entrée.
Care requirements
Microwave and dishwasher safe, but hand washing preserves the glossy finish and oven use is not recommended.
Appearance
Glossy ceramic glaze enhances food colors and creates a restaurant-plate look.
Everyday fit
The 10.25-inch plate fits standard dishwashers and cabinets and matches restaurant portion sizes.
Glaze care
Hand wash with soft sponge; avoid dishwashing to prevent clouding.
Thermal shock
Avoid sudden temperature changes to prevent microfractures.
Moisture barrier
Glaze seals porous ceramic, blocking moisture to prevent cracking.
Pattern safety
Decorative pattern contains no metallic pigments, so it won't spark in the microwave.
Temperature behavior
Glaze seal keeps the plate cooler in the microwave; warmth comes only from hot food.
