""Well-written and meticulously researched . . . . A must-read for any maritime history buff.""

Great for cold soups and salads
Worked as intended, although they are durable I would not overfill it with anything too heavy nor too hot. We used it for cold soups and salads and they worked great. Great value considering how many bowls you’re getting. Perfect size for single serving.
