Buffet ladles are perfect utensils for salad bars in cafeterias, restaurants, banquet halls, and family-style diners. Each ladle features a rounded bowl and curved handle that allows the user to easily portion out and drizzle dressing onto their salad or entree. Since these salad bar ladles provide portion control, they’ll help reduce waste and maximize profits. It’s also more cost-efficient to purchase bulk containers of dressing rather than individual packets and retail bottles.
These buffet ladles are available in various color options, and some are even printed with popular dressing names to help customers easily identify contents. You can also find salad bar ladles with pour spouts on both sides of the bowl, allowing users that are left- or right-handed to use them. A majority of them are also NSF Listed, so you don’t have to worry about liquids getting trapped in tiny cracks and crevices.
If your foodservice establishment offers any kind of self-serve salad bar, then these buffet ladles are necessary items for your utensil supply. You can even set these ladles out at your restaurant’s condiment station, so guests can scoop up ketchup, marinara sauce, guacamole, salsa, and sour cream. You’ll also find that many of these ladles are dishwasher safe, so they can be quickly cleaned and sanitized at the end of your lunch or dinner shift.
