Rachael Ray Enamel on Steel 16-1/2-Inch Roaster with V-Shape Rack
I am a huge rachael ray fan. I have had a cookware set i loved, and just recently purchased another larger set. I have the dishes now and am working on the bakeware and accessories.

- Nonstick interior

Published January 25, 2012Le Creuset Classic Enameled Cast-Iron 6-Piece Cookware Set
I did not know about Le Creuset Cookware brand, nor I used it, until I bought Le Creuset Dutch oven a 6 years ago. It is one of the best thing I own and with 100% life time warranty, it made me look in to more Le Creuset Cookware set and this is one of the best cast iron cookware set, with 6 pieces. One of the reason most people hesitate to buy Le Creuset cookware, as it is certainly not on cheap side. I was one of them, until I realized, this one set will last me a life time and if I maintain properly, eventually next generation too with just one time purchase.

Published December 22, 2011Matfer 915901 8 Piece Bourgeat Copper Cookware Set
I had never heard of Matfer brand earlier, but as our cookware reviews site chugged along, I learned more about many other brands that were great. In america, we consumer tend to look for frugal products as we like to save money unlike our european counter part. This Matfer brand is reputable and well known else where. It is expensive, costing around $1500-$2000 range, so buying it for review was out of question for me.

I conducted small interview with him, so I can write this review.
