Whether you're a novice cook, a chef extraordinaire or a weekend chef, walking into Essential Ingredient will change your life forever. If you've never been here, I highly suggest you make a trip now! But be warned: Kitting out your kitchen with every imaginable apparatus and appliance is great so long as you can afford it, can justify the buy and have room for it at home. There is nothing worse than a cluttered kitchen with no room for preparation.
Not only is Essential Ingredient that store where you can get anything you desire to help you cook (eg cookbooks, cookware, pots, baking apparatus, knives, bakeware, catering equipment, glassware, tableware, cutlery, barware etc) it's an emporium for the chef in you.
In addition to specialty foods (spices, truffle products, vanilla beans, olives and olive oil products, pastas and condiments), cookware, kitchen and tableware, which The Essential Ingredient is reknowned for, the large store has a highly respected cooking school and since 1997, has been at the cutting edge, teaching enthusiastic home cooks who want to shop where the chefs shop. read more
