Placewares has been offering one-stop shopping for all the tools and accessories needed in food preparation from the centre of the South Market's main floor since 2000. Sam’s son owns 10 Kitchen Stuff Plus stores in the metro area. Between them, they have many contacts around the world in the cookware business and are able to order hard-to-find items. The small shop is neatly packed to the rafters with every implement you could possibly want for the average or gourmet kitchen: quality knives of all sizes and uses, all kinds of teapots, the largest selection of cutting boards, cookie cutters, stainless steel mixing bowls of all sizes, can openers, coffee makers, mixers, gadgets and thing-a-ma-jigs. Everything is here! Sam finds that many of the Market vendors refer their customers to him when they are looking for a particular cooking accessory. Many chefs in the city suggest Placewares to their fellow chefs as a place to find what they need. |
