Elyse's thread on her search for sheet pans led me thinking....

We all know about Broadway Panhandler, Bridge Kitchenware, JB Prince etc, but wouldn't it be a good idea to set up a resource thread of places to shop for kitchenware?

This could be useful for those of us who live here or E-Gulleters coming to NY for a visit.

So, open up your rolodexes and share.

One of my favorite places to spend an afternoon is Kitchen Arts & Letters. Great bookstore and Nach Waxman, the owner is extremely knowledgable. None of the chains compare.

I never tried Zabar for cookware; I will. Broadway Panhandler is pricey, I think, but I love to go there even if I'm not buying. They have a tent sale once a year (I think it's once, late spring) which is worth a visit.

I'm for Zabar's as well.  I think they have excellent prices.  Apart from the whole Bowery ordeal, of course.

Because Zabar's is in my neighborhood, that's where I tend to go most frequently. But, I'm wondering what are the best places on the Bowery?

I've been to Chef Restaurant Supply (NW corner of Bowery and Houston) and there's the place on the NE corner of Bowery and Delancy. But is there any particular "go to" place? I mean I walk into Bari and I'm convinced it's a mafia front -- the place is just way too clean and I get the uncomfortable feeling that I don't belong.

Although inappropriately named, Bowery Kitchen Supply, in Chelsea Market (9th ave betw. 15th and 16th), has a large selection of commerical cookware. Chelsea Market is worth the trip for a number of reasons, particularly the Manhattan Fruit Exchange, so if you are headed there anyway, it's worth a look.
