serving dish

A serving dish is a plate or container used to present and hold food that is meant to be shared or served to others. Unlike individual plates, serving dishes are typically larger and designed to display food attractively on the table. They come in various shapes and materials, such as ceramic, glass, or metal, and help keep food organized, warmed, or easily accessible during a meal. Their primary purpose is to facilitate serving food in a tidy, appealing way that encourages sharing and enhances the dining experience.
