I've always loved Williams-Sonoma!  It is more than a kitchen store; it is an experience! A great place to buy presents!\n\nYes, you can just go in there and buy whatever you need for your gourmet kitchen, or a unique gift for your best friend or your mother. But WS staff is there for more than just to sell you high end kitchen delights. They will teach you how to use your new purchases and the many options that are available that you had no idea you wanted or even needed.\n\nThe staff is well-trained, not your usual retail sales clerks, but men and women who know their inventory and how it can make a difference in your cooking life and they aren't afraid to tell you.\n\nThe WS staff at the Biltmore are on the top end of the sales scale. They are there to teach you what they have in the store, what you might need to fulfill your every kitchen desire and what you cannot live without. Yep, I challenge you to get out of there without buying at least one thing, or learning how to cook something you didn't even know you wanted.  Williams-Sonoma is a playground for cooks of all levels. And, if you are like me and not a chef . . .it is a great place to buy wedding and Holiday presents.
