A covering arrangement for a food bar has at least one covering element with front and rear sections, and two first side sections disposed between the front and rear sections along opposite outer edges. The rear section extends in a substantially vertical plane. The covering arrangement also has a mounting structure with at least first and second mounting elements extending in a substantially vertical direction. The covering elements are movable in a vertical direction relative to the mounting elements, allowing the covering elements to move between a lower closed position and an upper open position. The covering arrangement further comprises second side sections fixedly or detachably connectable to the food bar such that when a covering element is closed, the first side sections are disposed adjacent to, and in parallel with, the second side sections, and when the covering element is open, the second side sections act as side covers.
