Calphalon v. Cuisinart?
I'm looking to replace a few stainless steel saucepans (1.5 qt. and 3 qt. perhaps) and just can't navigate all of the different lines of Calphalon and Cuisinart. Simply Calphalon? Calphalon Tri-ply? Calphalon Contemporary Stainless? Cuinsinart Chef's Classic? Help!
For background, I'm planning on using these pans for simple, basic tasks like boiling water for pasta. I'd like stainless steel instead of hard anodized.
Is Calphalon superior to Cuisinart? Any thoughts and recommendations would be great, although I'm only looking in this price range.
Produce/Groceries in Brooklyn Heights?
I'm new to New York (just took a new job) and am living in Brooklyn Heights. I hear that the grocery selection is pretty limited. Where's a good place to do most of your grocery shopping? I'm most concerned about fresh produce and meat. I live close to the Gristedes on Henry but am finding it a bit overpriced.
Any thoughts and recommendations would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
