Every gadget you could ever want for your kitchen…every set of plates or serving sets or glasses you could ever need for your dining room or kitchen….I think we’ve found it all in one place at Asher’s Gourmet Shoppe on S. Cooper Street. This is a panacea for anybody who loves to cook or just wants to freshen-up the dining room/kitchen area.
Cookware, bakeware, cutlery, tea sets, small appliances, kitchen accessories…you’ll find them here.
Whether you’re into cake decorating or outdoor grilling; if fondue or margarita machines are your preference; shoot, maybe you are into the wood-fired oven….you can find it here at Asher’s.
As for the dinnerware, Asher’s is an authorized dealer of Royal Worcester and Spode. There is Royal Patrician from Staffordshire, England. And if you prefer casual rather than formal, there’s a whole row of dinner ware/kitchen ware with Texas/Southwestern themes.
There is also a section for gourmet foods including soup mixes, cake mixes, preserves, margarita mixes, coffees and teas, extra virgin olive oil, etc. A large selection of wine racks and wine openers are available. Heck, the back wall is covered with a selection of aprons.
What I especially love are the sets/appliances that I can use with my kids. The little ice cream makers and sno-cone makers are perfect for them. My husband was more interested in the grill accessories.
This is a great place to shop for gifts, and I don’t just mean gifts for wedding showers or house-warmings. Eating is something each one of us does at least three times a day (not counting all the fun little snacks in-between meals).
You know how it’s hard to buy something for “the person who has everything”? Well, I thought I knew my way around the kitchen, but there were gizmos in here that I hadn’t seen before. Now I have some fun ideas for gifts (not only for myself) but for family/friends who enjoy cooking or grilling (or just eating!!!).
You don’t have to be a gourmet chef to enjoy browsing through Asher’s. There’s something for everyone who has to muddle their way through the kitchen. I’m not a gourmet chef by any stretch of the imagination (anyone who continually burns microwave popcorn can’t claim prowess in the kitchen), but I really enjoyed this store. And there are great gift ideas, too.
