Portmeirion Botanic Garden Pasta Bowl, 10"

I love this pattern, Lovely and sturdy with beautiful flowers

I am happy to have another pasta bowl. It is not exactly the same shape but it nests well with my other two. I use them almost every day for serving, pasta, salad. They don't end up in dishwasher because I want them available.

I bought these bowls a few years ago, when they were first introduced into the store. I wish that I had gotten more. I love these bowls! We use them for so many things, but, I originally intended them to be for serving gulash with knedle. My husband is Czech and they typically use a dish like this, a shallow rimmed bowl. Not just for pasta. Rice covered with stewed beef or stir fry... so many uses! Now, they have gotten more expensive.

The bowl was perfect. I give it 4 stars because Macy's does not let you select the specific flower pattern on the bowl. The picture showed pansies, which I thought I would be getting. I received yellow azaleas.

I was looking for a fruit bowl with a small footprint to put on my kitchen counter but had little success until I came across this bowl. It was perfect. Slightly less than a foot in diameter, the bowl securely holds several pieces of fruit. Since it has a beautiful pattern with a mainly white background, the bowl blends well with the rest of my kitchen. Mission accomplished.

Great compliment to the set. I will get another one to use for vegetables or starches.
