So far, Ive learned that fresh baguettes and croissants are always available.

As a pasta bowl connoisseur, this gives me emotional satisfaction.

Ive never seen a pasta bowl at a buffet before, and quite frankly, I am jealous.

It further proves my point that you could pop anything into these hybrid dinnerware pieces.

The ones in the village are simple in design and versatile in size, which are all my preferences.

While I cant say whats being used in Paris, I can share all my favorite picks.

Pasta bowls are, of course, perfect for pasta.

Because of the size, sauces also stay in place, making it easier to get the perfect bite.

Theyre porcelain and microwave- and dishwasher-safe.

Plus, six come in the set for just $31.

Theyre nice enough that I dont feel strange using them inside, too.

I also appreciate that theyre sustainably made with plant-based materials.

And theyre stain- and scent-resistant, even in the moon shade.

Y Yhy 6-Piece 30-Ounce Pasta Bowl Set

These Y Yhy bowls are a crowd-pleasing pick.

Theyre not too big or too small at 30 ounces.

Theyre made with porcelain, so theyre microwave- and oven-safe.

Theyre also dishwasher safe, so theyre very easy to clean.

With six bowls in the set, theres also plenty of dishes to go around.

Shop the set on Amazon for under $6 apiece, thanks to the double discount.

I absolutely love everything about it, from its rippled, organic edges to the quality of the bowl.
