Even if you're not looking for anything in particular, it's fun to browse the chic, tasteful, artsy items they carry from many independent makers internationally. I also love perusing their selection of cookbooks and the staff is always really kind!

This store has some great high-end items that are hard to get anywhere here on the Eastern Shore, such as Staub enameled ironware, European knives (Wusthoff, etc.), and other high-end items. But they also have a lot of less expensive items, such as the classic Revere Ware pots, reasonably priced non-stick porcelin pans, and silicone cooking tools. If you are looking for a place to find something for a bridal shower, you WILL be able to find something here, and it will be appreciated. No, I have no relationship to the store, but a strong knowledge of the needs of the serious cook or commercial kitchen. This is the place to go around here to see and buy what you need, and to find that wonderful gadget that saves you time. It's not as big as typical Sur la Table or Williams Sonoma stores, or a commercial source like J.B. Prince in NYC, but it has a high percentage of the types of items you would find in such places.

This place literally has something for EVERYONE and will have you dreaming about entertaining large crowds IMMEDIATELY. From the novice Food Network watcher/cook, to the experienced chef -- Cogatay and the teams hospitable disposition combined with their quality products will have you forgetting the constraints of your kitchen cabinets, personal inability to cook, or serve a superior mixologist. If you haven't given this place a visit, you have to make it a priority immediately. Be certain to ask about their sales as you will be flabbergasted by the ability to begin hosting/cooking with ease, class, and personal style.

I ordered four Fortessa Jupiter 13 oz. glasses direct from the Fortessa website. They arrived and…read morelooked just like the online photos, but several broke during delivery. I contacted their customer service and they immediately sent out a new box. All the new ones were intact, no breaks. It must be very hard to ship glass without some getting broken. Their customer service was fast, professional, and very friendly! Great to work with, all done by email. The glasses themselves are a good size, nice heavy pressed glass with a hobnail decoration in rows that looks both modern and kind of vintage. I'm glad I bought them. I'm still really pleased with how good their custom service was.

Ten Thousand Villages is a delightful little shop in Fells Point I've passed by many times, but…read morenever visited until 9/15! It has a bazaar feel (though a bit more vanilla) with a ton of random items and tchotchkes. A friend and I spent a nice 30 minutes in the store, possibly touching everything, but enjoying every second of it. The salesperson interacted with us from behind the register area, but was very hands off, which was cool during our exploration. I ended up purchasing a fabric softener ball with a cat face on it AND some cute, VERY heavy, cat shaped salt and pepper shakers. There were a million more things there I would buy, so I'll definitely be back.

I was on a browsing and getting-holiday-ideas mission today, so I only bought a few small things; a candle, a soap bar, and a chocolate bar. The chocolate was SO good, and the candle and soap both smell amazing. Thanks to the staff, I learned that the candles help young moms in Chicago, the soaps help children go to school in India, and the chocolate helps small farmers across South America. I love that everything comes with a story of hope and helping someone. I will absolutely be going back soon to buy some gifts for my loved ones!! And maybe more chocolate for myself ;)

Since my last review Dishfunctional moved from a warehouse type space to a retail strip mall…read morelocation in nearby Frazier. Their WC space had been sold and was being torn down. FDC and I were in the area so we decided to check out the new digs. The shopping center it's located in is large and has ample free lot parking. The space is bright and open. What we noticed was a change - in the old location there were rows and rows of shelves, with dishes organized by pattern or color. If you were hoping to find a replacement for a broken plate in your pattern, or to add to your set, you could easily do that and chances were, they'd have your pattern even if it was passed down from your great grandmother, who brought it with her to the New World. In the new space there was thoughtful merchandising of items, displayed in settings with style groupings but not necessarily patterns. Saw some patterns scattered in different places, like Kings Crown Ruby Stained goblets. I get it, they compliment lots of styles. Finding 5 of them may involve hunting. The store is lovely and well displayed. We found inspiration and were charmed. It's still a great store, it's more though general shop for amazing dishes and such and less looking for an item in a pattern. In its former format, Dishfunctional filled a need no one else had. Now it's just shopping for cool stuff. We'll still visit, my dish loving heart weeps though for what was lost when some real estate developer decided what West Chester really needed was more "luxury condos" on a semi-industrial area. One other thing - they still have a robust eBay presence so if you are looking for a specific pattern or style, check there. Also Alfred has an encyclopedic knowledge, so ask him about what you are looking for - or if you want to know more about a gorgeous bowl- if he's there.
