No matter if you travel on your own or with your family, on foot or a trailer - in any case, you need dinnerware set. And even if you are not one of those people who take half of the kitchen with them, you will still need to have at least a plate, a mug, a fork, a spoon, and a knife. It is also worth remembering that ordinary dishes that you use at home will not suit, as they are heavy and easily crash. Therefore, you need to purchase a special camping dinnerware set for your trip. Nowadays on the market, there are many different sets for both one person and a large family.
But you should not take the first set that you will see. Before buying, analyze whether this kit is right for you and whether the price matches the quality. Let's look at a few points, following which you will make the right choice.
First of all, you need to pay attention to the material from which the dishes are made. It must be strong and withstand drops, as well as different temperatures. You can choose one that will not melt on fire. So you can easily boil water directly in a mug or heat food in a plate.
The material should not scratch since then the dishes will be difficult to wash. For the same reason, do not choose sets that have volumetric patterns. Give preference to a material that includes plastic, metal, enamel, or stainless steel.
The main criterion should be weight. Dishes should be light. It will also be good if the dishes are easy to fold and stack easily within each other. If you buy a set for the whole family, then it is better to choose those sets that come with the suitcase. So the dishes will be easier to store and move.
It is better to choose sets where the dishes are small since they take up less space. Also, do not take too much. For example, if there are only two persons, then there is no need to take a set for five people. And vice versa. Also, do not take the dishes that you do not plan to use and which can be replaced with something else. This is especially important when you travel with a backpack on your shoulders because then every gram is important.
The price of the dishes depends on the size of the set, material, and brand. The first two points are important but you should not overpay for the last. After all, you can easily find an excellent dinnerware set of a company unknown to you, which will be several times cheaper and no worse in quality than an expensive brand.
