Notes to answerer
Asker: Many thanks for your contribution and your help. Yes, the word is probably more useful for pros in the business. What the translation requires is 'serving trolley'.


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
neutral  Lisa McCarthy: I don´t think anyone would have a clue what this was - or maybe restaurant staff would be more familiar with the term?

  -> I take it this is from a list for professionals, not necessarily for the public at large. They are certainly marketed with this name.

Reference information:
Seguramente ya están preguntando que significa "Galidón", viene de una palabra Francesa "Gueridon" que se trata de una mesa o mueble auxiliar de apoyo que se utiliza en restaurantes, ya sea para tener elementos de alcance de los mozos o flamear, trinchar y cortar platos a la vista del cliente.

neutral  Lisa McCarthy: This ref describes the origin of a restaurant name, but what we need to know is what this is referred to on a daily basis by those who use it.

  -> I'd say the ref. describes exactly what your second link shows a "galidón" is
