Abstract: Tray is engineered for receiving food, in particular on board aeroplanes, vehicles or other transport means, wherein the tray comprises a tray body, on which a first receiving surface for receiving food is formed, and a receiving part extending above the first receiving surface and spaced therefrom, on which upper side of which a second receiving surface for receiving food extending above the first receiving surface and spaced therefrom. Since the receiving surfaces are disposed on different planes, the actual area of the tray may be slight, in which case the receiving surfaces disposed lying above one another together form a receiving surface which may be substantially larger than the area of the tray. The tray is therefore particularly suitable for use in restricted spatial conditions, for example on board aeroplanes. The vertical dimensions of the tray may be such that the tray body with the receiving part placed thereon fits into a slide-in unit of an existing trolley.
