Living in Laos, there seems to be abundance of Chinese eateries, most of which feature a king sized version of lazy Susan that I’ve often thought would fit the bill. I’m viewing those with a Susan size of around 900mm. Admittedly, the weight of the vittles is unlikely to reach more than 10kgs in normal use, if the load could be arranged to fall more onto the balls around the rim rather than into the centre, I think it would make a fine azimuth platform. Likely to be inexpensive too. The only drawback I can think of would be the possible accumulation of gritty stuff in the bearing channels that may cause roughness in the rotation.
