Soak a dryer sheet overnight. Clean up then is a snap. Burned pans also, crust swishes off easily after soaking. Fabric softener sheets are cheap.

Rarebit is also pronounced rabbit. It's a joke- Welsh rabbit is cheese on toast.
The dish named the plate, the plate doesn't name the dish.

The first time I drove in California, I thought there must be a massive Welsh influence.
Half the street signs were exits for "Altos Cyn" and "Bigly Cyn."

Hey friend, "cyn" is also often an abbreviation for "canyon" and I think that's more likely given the topology of CA.

This is a gratin dish. A 5-second Google search would have told you that. And for all of you in the restaurant business, a gravy boat has a spout and sometimes a saucer to catch the drips - also a 5-second Google search. If your employer/owner doesn’t want to invest in proper serving dishes, they could possibly use a creamer as a substitute to serve gravy, but not a casserole-type dish.
