Sur La Table opens Friday

The Baltimore area's first Sur La Table, a kitchenware store that also offers cooking classes, opens tomorrow at Towson Town Center in the second-floor luxury wing.

The well-known, Seattle-based store—it's been around for 40 years—will be a great addition to the mall and a tempting resource for area cooks (including me). There's also a Sur La Table in Annapolis Towne Centre at Parole if you live in that area.

I can't wait to check out the inventory at the Towson location and take some classes there. The store bills itself as one of the largest avocational cooking schools nationwide. The classes focus on seasonal cuisine and technique-oriented courses, according to a press release.

See you there.
