Editorial Review for Le Sanctuaire – by Roxanne Webber
In Short
Shoppers are more likely to encounter celebrity chefs browsing for rare spices, oils and cutting-edge cooking devices than they are fellow culinary-civilians in this aptly named sanctuary above the bustle of Sutter Street. Apparel, cooking journals and high-tech kitchen gadgets such as immersion circulators keep the chefs coming, while Japanese cutlery and cookbooks make for great gifts.
