The class wasn't exactly a cooking class but the chef gave us recipes and further demonstration when questions came up. Every dish was delicious. The store part of the place has pot, pans, kitchen gadgets, and some gourmet food items. I'm giving it a 4 because their items are on the pricier side.

I'm not a chef and I do not own a restaurant or cafe, but I like shopping here. Many of the…read morerestaurant equipment and supply stores are not open to the general public, but Metro welcomes everyone. I've bought sheet pans, stock pots and a colorful apron. If you go in and just browse, chances are you may find something you've always wanted or needed to make your kitchen complete. The staff is available if you need assistance, but I do fine just walking around and looking at all the goodies. Since they've moved to Godfrey, their location is closer to my home and that may be an issue for me. I may end up shopping here more often. If you like to cook or bake, you owe it to yourself to check Metro Equipment & Supply out. You'll be glad that you did.

Every time I have shopped, I am amazed at the knowledge of the sales associates working. The other day, I listened to Gail explain the difference between two products to another customer and I was so impressed, I almost bought the skillet, too. She was very thorough. Le Creuset is an expensive product. So for some, the prices at this outlet store may still seem high. However, you get what you pay for and this is a quality product at a reduced price point. Today, all I bought was a new Hydration Bottle in Flame for the gym. I couldn't pass it up for only, $10. If you love cooking at home, treat yourself to some Le Creuset. It is well worth the investment.

We look for things in Artichaut, Agave, and Nectar but these are some of the less commonly available colors. If you can find what you are looking for, the deals are great. When you order online you often pay a hefty shipping price and returns are a bear. Finding what you like in the outlet can mean saving yourself from not liking your purchases. The ladies in the store are knowledgeable, but pushy about product. We had two come up to us and try to sell us on a new color even though we told them we were looking for something completely different. These interactions certainly don't make the shopping experience fun!

So, I stroll into the store at 10am on a Tuesday, bright-eyed and optimistic--it's knife-sharpening…read moreday! They'd just opened, and apparently, so had the portal to absurdity. I tell the guy I want the knives sharpened and ready for pickup that afternoon. Simple enough, right? Wrong. He informs me they ship the knives off to New York, and it takes 2-3 weeks. Weeks. Because clearly, these knives must undergo a spiritual journey before they're deemed worthy of being sharp again. I explain they aren't *that* dull and ask if they can just sharpen them in-house. He says they can--oh, but not the serrated knives, can opener, or scissors. Sure, no problem. I'll take those magical items home and entrust him with just the straight edges. Then he drops another gem: they can "touch up" the knives. Fine by me, as long as I get them back in the afternoon. But wait! Plot twist--he suddenly claims it'll take 2-3 *days* because they "have an event." An event? Are the knives the keynote speakers? Because the store was as empty as my patience at that point. I looked around, saw no sign of this mysterious "event," and finally hit my limit. I stormed out, muttering about how I'd apparently wandered into the Theater of the Absurd. Honestly, what a circus.
