Well, perhaps not chef. I'm nowhere near a chef, but I definitely love Williams-Sonoma. Just about everthing about this store is classy. The displays are always classy and make you want to own EVERYTHING IN THE STORE. But seeing as they stock $250 toasters, that might not be very realistic for most of us. However, we can dream, and while we dream, there is Williams-Sonoma.
Not everything in the store is beyond the financial reach of the average person, though. Every once in a while they do have great sales, so watch out for those. Some of their kitchen supplies are even downright affordable, and will instantly up the sex appeal of any kitchen. If you're there on a good day, they also offer free samples of their food, often cooked right there in the store from the recipe books in their store. Very good stuff!
