A serving spoon needs to be long enough to reach down into the pot, stable enough to hold under weight, and heavy enough to feel secure in the hand. Light spoons bend, light spoons vibrate against the bottom of a saucepan, light spoons do not feel right when the hand is tired after a long dinner service.
Hestan's Provisions serving spoon is in 18/10 stainless steel with the weight and balance that professional kitchens require. Part of the range from the brand Thomas Keller chose for The French Laundry and Per Se. Dishwasher-safe.
