It's just pretty expensive, but it is well-curated items that should last you. The first class I did was a macaron class! The instructor was great and answered all my questions. We also took a French cooking class, which wasn't my favorite. The food was delicious but I didn't realize how simple it would be. It may just be that I know more about cooking than I give myself credit for but I found it pretty basic. I'll return for future classes but for trickier things I haven't made at home like pasta, pastries and sushi!

Hockenbergs is a fantastic place to find restaurant-grade kitchen and dining supplies. Their…read moreprices are generally exceptional and their products are usually high quality and very durable. About 3/4 of the store is devoted to items the average home cook wouldn't even dream of buying: industrial-grade ovens, huge refrigeration units, restaurant dishwashers, etc. But the remaining quarter of the store is full of high-quality, sturdy and relatively inexpensive cookware, knives, kitchen gadgets, dishes and flatware. Their prices are usually very good, like a dozen pieces of stainless steel flatware for around $2-3, or an 18 inch wooden pepper grinder for $30 (sold in consumer-oriented stores for around $75). Their one downside is they seem to have a problem keeping product in stock. Several times I've gone there looking for a particular item, and I can find the tag on the shelf, but there's nothing there.

The prices here are pretty high, which has prevented me from making more purchases over the years. But I do like to come and look around for ideas, and especially scout for deals. There's always a surplus of employees, to be honest there are way too many, which makes the shopping experience a little less enjoyable with a new sales person asking if you're finding everything all right every corner you turn. I plan to come back often whenever I have a large furniture purchase to make. Never realized overtime that you can almost always find a better deal in store than online for the same exact product!

When you first walk in the door, this shop appears to have the potential to be a small Williams…read moreSonoma or Sur la Table, but the similarities end when you spend a few moments trying to find something specific. Certain item sizes, colors, model variations, etc. are always "out of stock", leaving you frustrated that you wasted your time going to a brick-and-mortar store, and ultimately having to go home and order the product online. I tried to give this store a chance, but after many, many experiences like that over the course of several years, I have given up hope on Habitat entirely. I haven't been there for over a year, but the older (unfriendly) lady at the cash register outright lied to me about product availability, saying that a brand of bowl only came in the size and color they had in stock -- all while I was comparing other colors and sizes on my phone, available from vendors around the country. Sometimes they have something in stock in small quantities, and if you miss out, they may not have it again for months; and I don't mean obscure seasonal decorations, but cooking essentials that are needed year-round. Everyone complains that local stores are going out of business because of internet competition, but I think that's largely an excuse made by dud business owners. For example: right next door is Hobby Town USA which has an amazing supply of products, competitive prices with online giants, and the gumption to do special orders for rapid delivery if you need something they don't have. Habitat, by comparison, seems like a place that "wants to act" as if they're a serious cooking store, but then doesn't want to put in the effort or investment to stock the product quantities and varieties needed by true, hardcore foodies.

Very surprised no one's reviewed them yet. Habitat's been in Lincoln for ages; I have wedding…read moregifts from here. I really only check out the cooking side of the store; the home decor section is lovely but isn't what I came for. If you need several choices in size and brand for springform pans, or you want a wooden lemon reamer or a citrus zester, this is the place. They have free recipes set up in a drawer on a table; a select collection of cookbooks and foodie books; spices (Madagascar vanilla; no Tahitian, alas, but no one seems to carry that); a small selection of high-end chocolate bars; silicone baking sheets...well, it's a good gourmet cooking store and if that sounds like fun to you you'll love it.

My boyfriend has a specialized diet during the week. He keeps Keto, so no carbs (SO not my…read morething--bring on the bread and potatoes as far as I'm concerned!) and he usually spends a ton of time prepping his meals each week. For Christmas, I thought it would be nice to hire a personal chef for a bit to take care of his cooking for him. I came across MJER Help and I'm so happy I did! Besides catering, they actually specialize in meal prep and take care of everything from the grocery shopping, to preparation to portioning. They come to your home to take care of the cooking so you don't have to worry about delivery or picking the meals up--which was the case with some of the other chefs I looked at. After a quick call with Michelle so she could understand what I was looking for and to chat pricing (flat hourly fee plus the cost of groceries), the awesome Kathy was sent our way every Tuesday to cook 10 meals a week. Kathy worked with my boyfriend to find recipes that he was excited to eat and she whipped them up using both our own kitchenware and some more specialized tools she brought with her. She would provide clear portions and pairings so he would know what goes with what. Kathy helped him get out of the rut he was in when he was cooking for himself and he loved everything she cooked for him! MJER Help was affordable (as far as personal chefs go), super easy to work with and Kathy went the extra mile to make sure my boyfriend was eating delicious meals that kept with his Keto diet!
