Holy moly! This place is heaven for anyone who likes to spend any amount of time in the kitchen!

Like the good, money-conscious shopper I am (...sometimes...) I walked into Cook's Warehouse knowing exactly what I needed and told myself that would be the only thing I would walk out of the store with. An angel food cake pan.

I opened the door to the small-ish shop to find my perfect kitchen. Everything I could ever need to cook anything. They had at least 10 different versions of those little saucers that you see TV chefs pulling their "pinch" of salt from. I want those. No, I NEED those.

Aisle after aisle of baking pans, knives, cute aprons, cutting boards, pots and pans, etc. Of course, the real kicker is the stuff on the wall- the lemon zester! The melon baller! The silicon baster brush! The shellfish cleaners! I need one of each!

Before I got too deep in convincing myself I need these things, a very knowledgeable-looking employee asked me if I needed help finding anything. Oh yeah. The angel food cake pan. She showed me right to where they were and we discussed the different sizes, and what would be most appropriate for my need. I heard other employees around asking if they could help anyone find anything- great customer service!

They also have a really amazing teach-in kitchen in the back, where I now really want to take classes. At the employee's recommendation, try to take classes where you get to do stuff and not watch a chef do things!

All the employees were so cheery, I couldn't believe it. If I was surrounded by all that awesomeness, I guess I would be happy too. Except I would spend my entire paycheck there. I wonder if employees get discounts...hmmm....
