And it’s also a perfect gift shop should you feel compelled to buy a gift for someone who has a passion for cooking, baking, and an overall love for all things kitchen and household. Le Creuset? Got it… Cuisinart? All-Clad? Lodge? Yep, yep, and yep… Pots, pans, and kitchen gadgets. Proprietor, Jennifer Sandstrom, has it all.

Someone's in the KitchenIndeed, her assortment reflects her joy for cooking and baking which most definitely comes from her background. As she says from the point of view of being a former baker, “you need the great kitchen tools to help make it all easier. For example, a poor quality rolling pin makes the job just that much harder.” She wants the best for her customers, and she does the hard work to ensure her inventory includes top quality kitchen tools. Rest assured, you don’t need to buy kitchen supplies online at soulless ecommerce behemoths if you live in or near Oakland.
