Yanco NA-411BK Nature Art Melamine 10-7/8" x 4-7/8" x 7/8" Rectangular Sushi Plate, Black and Brown — Case of 36 (3 dz)

Black sushi plate, ten and seven eighths inches long by four and seven eighths wide, standing seven eighths of an inch at the edge. The NA-411BK is what sushi counters tend to default to, because a dark ground is what makes raw fish look like raw fish — tuna reads red, salmon reads orange, and white rice separates from the surface under it.

Why sushi service runs dark

The format is single-diner tableware despite the length: a strip under five inches wide holds one order, not a shared course. The low lip contains soy and gives ginger and wasabi a corner of their own. Brown edge accents carry the pattern across without competing with the food. Thirty-six pieces to the case, which is how a counter buys something used on every cover. Break-resistant melamine takes the knocks of a busy pass, and it is dishwasher safe.
